ok i have been reading threads and looking at different headers, i know they are going to give me rasp whatever i just have to deal with it. and get a resonator welded in. i cant decide between the headers that are out there on the market. so i have intrusted the wonderful help of you scionlife members any one that has different headers post up which you like. which are better, pics anything. im trying to find out which ones are better to go with. im looking to pick up a set of header by next weekend. and have a few other questions. basically do all headers replace the cat? i would rather leave the cat on if i could. maybe telling me which headers will keep the cat on rather then replacing it.

all headers delete the primary cat..
the only one i know of that had a cat welded in was the Megan v.1 header..
which i guess is discontinued and rare now...

I have the catless megan headers and theyre pretty decent. i would go with dc sports or (if you have money) weapon r! im gonna go with one of those once i can find a way around this being broke thing!

whatever you get make sure its ceramic coated, the chrome ones discolor and rust, you can avoid some of that by painting the insides of the pipes with high temp paint, and by wiping it down real well of fingerprints before starting the car but they all rest and discolor eventually

alright that works. but my question is with the cat being deleted will it still pass inspection? thats kinda my main question. cause i have been looking at the weapon-r and dc sports ones.

you will fail emissions unless you put one downstream

alright that helps appreciate it.

put it downstream and take it to get done before your sticker expires, that way if you fail you have time to correct the problem before you are due

yea that works didnt think about that. thanks for the info.
