PPE Engineering IS350 header development
PPE Engineering IS350 header development
Hey all.
Although there is another thread discussing that PPE Engineering is looking into developing headers, I thought to start a new one because they are looking for a prototype is350 to use for 2-3 weeks starting as early as the first week in August.
I was originally supposed to be the prototype but due to certain circumstances, I no longer can be it, so I feel responsibility to help them find someone.
If anyone in the Phoenix, Arizona area, or anyone willing to travel there, is interested, contact them at sales@ppeengineering.com

If Japanese tuners like Toda Racing, M-Bit (MAXIM WORKS), JUN AUTO, etc made headers for a 350, you will know for sure that there will be gains throughout the powerband.
For those with 350s, if you want serious power, HKS Japan makes a bolt-on complete supercharger kit. But we are talking close to 10 grand for the complete kit.
Even in Japan, there are no aftermarket headers for the 350. So I am not surprised that no one is offering headers for the 350 in the US.

As for the Jun-TW products, they are made in Taiwan. I spoke to Carson Toyota/L-tuned parts and they said Jun-TW is affiliated with Jun Auto Japan. However, they have different engineering staff and I would assume the Japanese engineers in Jun Auto Japan is much more knowledgeable and experience with making performance parts.
I would say the Jun-TW performance parts are way overpriced, for they are only made in Taiwan. I believe their dyno showed 10-15hp gain on a 250 from what I recall.
Hopefully PPE can make a set of affordable headers for the 350, with some gain in hp and tq. Again, it depends how much time they are willing to spend on R&D. I am keeping my fingers crossed
