Been thinking about the exhaust alittle more an does anyone know if these would work in my Celia with the 1Mz or would I be better of just using the stock manifolds an getting the y pipe custom made
And should I stick with my 2.5 exhaust or should I think about bumping up to 3 inch

Your 2.5" should be fine, I would think. Maybe 2.75". I'd just keep the stock 1MZ manifolds and y pipe then have the exhaust shop hook them up for you.

The stock y pipe is shot the flex points are rotted
So I know I have to atleast replace that plus that seems to be the worst part of the stock exhaust so it's the easiest Ashcroft build skittles extra power
But your right I could probably stick to the stock manifolds

Stock y-pipe is horrible. The stock manifolds are bad, but they will work. Have the Y pipe remade with a better flowing merge.

Thats why im leaning torward the headers
Just not sure yet might stick with stock for now so i can get it running then upgrade when i pull it back apart once i get a s51 trans
But does anyone else agree with richee3 that my 2.5 without thr cat or resanator is big enough

Do you have any exhaust pipe from the donor car or just the manifolds? If so, measure the stock exhaust pipe to find out what the stock size was and go from there. I can't imagine that stock exhaust on the donor car was much bigger than 2.5".

Yea stock it 2 so 2.5 should be good for a mild build i guess

That change from 2 to 2.5 is a 25% increase in cross-sectional area and volume. So, yeah, I figure you'll have a good start there lol
Yea that's what I've been thinking from the start but it never hurts to ask.

Going to call around Monday about a flywheel an bolts
Hopefully I have my exhaust truck sold Sunday so that will put me at enough for the harness
Everything seem to be coming along alittle faster than I thought but not as fast as I want lol
