I am having trouble on finding buyers guide on different headers with pros and cons......

can we please make a sticky for header buyers guide PLEASE!!!

 

Not too many choices....

Race headers: DC Sports, Weapon R, and Strup (if they still make it), and Dezod (Brand new design)

Catted header: Dezod has the only catted header

Basically depends on if you want to be street/emission legal.

 

Im actually getting my buddies strup header w/ heat wrap. Just wanted to see different prices/performence and other peoples experience/opinions with different headers...... in a sticky at least

 

I wouldn't if I were you...almost all sound ricy on the tc with aftermarket exhaust

 

^^ Wrong, Dezod Green Header does not. It'll cost you tho.

 

That's why I said ALMOST all..... I haven't had experience with the green headers but I had dc sport with 2.5" cat back and it sounded terrible. My buddy had raceland headers with trd axleback and it also sounded terrible. Most tcs with headers and catback exhaust that I have encountered sound aweful. I just recommend not running headers due to my experience, thought I would share.

 

Im picking up the stup header from my buddy next weekend. The sound will come from this setup..... Fujita CAI, Strup Header (4-1), Megan Racing S pipe w/ O2 sensor, midpide w/ one foot long resinator (dont know the brand), to a Spec D 2.5 Inch Inlet N1 Style (just copied info from the net).

So I will keep you guys posted on what it will sound like. I just know I heard another tC with a header and it didn't sound real ricy but it was loud as F***!!

If it rasps at higher rpms, I can just take it to an exhaust shop and have them make me a mid pipe with a longer/another resinator.

Has anybody heard that set up b4?

 

Its all about the hushpower II for a resonator it will keep your exhaust quieter inside the car. It sounds throaty when you get on it, but nice and quite when you are cruising on the hwy and around town.

 

this was done years ago. they came down to powerband, https://www.scionlife.com/forums/scion-tc-1g-drivetrain-power-1637/gscmotorsports-com-scion-tc-header-test-results-34550/

my car video clip with header ------>

 

That doesnt sound bad.... but cant say I'd want to pay nearly $400 for that sound

 

header goes for $50 used to $125 new is what I payed.

 

Ok... I got my strup 4-1 header and megan racing s pipe installed last weekend. I feel a huge difference in power. My set up is Fujita CAI, Strup Header (4-1), Megan Racing S pipe, midpide (2 piece) w/ one foot long resinator (dont know the brand), to a Spec D 2.5 Inch Inlet N1 Style (just copied info from the net). It does have a rasp to it but not as bad as i thought it was going to be (a honda pulled up next to me and I thought ya.. im not that bad lol). I have another mid pipe w/ 2 resonators on it and its a single piece instead of a two piece set up, im going to install that to see if that helps the raspiness of my car.

My axle back pipe for some reason now hits my cross memeber and it annoyes the f*** out of me!! Im going to have my buddy cut the pipe and put my exhaust at a 45!!! mmmmm jdm lol

I need to replace the heat wrap





I need to do something to that engine bay to make it look a little better!!! lol

 

If you added these mods to race post up your timeslip if you take it to the track. I'd like to see how quick it is.

 

Ive always wanted to see what my time would be. They are closing PIR out here so i might have to find another spot...

 

That sucks. They closed down our local tracks for a bit, but we got them back. I've noticed that very few of us on SL that are not turbo go to the track.

 

What brand is it? Where did you find it?
