Which headers give the best gains for the GTS? I'm in the market to buy, and i'm trying to get as much info as i can from actual people with them already installed. Write up sheets are all well and good, but i trust actuall results from a real person. thanks!

DC gives the best gains, if you can call it that. The gains were very unimpressive, and definitely not worth $300 (check out the thread at the top of this forum for more info).

Nope, there's nothing bad they can do. They just flow exhaust gasses. No sensors or anything inside. At worst, you might have an exhaust leak and have to get a new header gasket (though it is a good idea to replace them during the install).

fyi in the car world the term "header(s)" should not be used unless referring to multiple "headers" such as,

"I am selling my next batch of headers"

"I just ordered a pair of headers for my 71 mustang mach1(it is a v8 and has 2 exhaust manifolds aka header(s)"

The term headers is to imply we have more than one header.

So your in the market for a header for your 4 cylinder car, since we have only one header.

Make sure you get it right because anyone with automotive knowledge will laugh at you if you say "headers."

right now on modded celicas(intake, exhaust, pfc) the Trial header, and the DC header seem to make about the same amount of power which is 1-2 peak hp.

Trial costs about 880 shipped in 5 days
DC costs about 260 shipped when the batches are made.

All our hopes are left with TPR, and that they design a good header that produces good gains on a modded celica.
