Default Anybody with header experience?

I am thinking about getting exhaust header for my 01 gs3, and was wondering which one would be the best and also will I have any problems when getting emission time? My current setup is, weapon r intake with s-afc and borla exhaust.
thanks for any inputs.

Not with the Lexus however you can get it done at a fabrication shop. They will remove your engine and do the R&D and make them custom for you. 3-8weeks depending on shop.$$$$

Even if some had them they have to remove the engine$$$$

Have you ever seen your exhaust under your car? Try making it a true dual (40.00) 30 minutes at a mufler shop. still want more remove the back resinators also. want more, make it 2.5" all the way down to the cat back borla. want more remove you CATS. want more get headers.
P.S. hope you still have torque
Good luck

I was reading in superstreet (DON'T ASK) but I seen a company called HP racing and it seems that they have a header for the GS
I really don't know about the company but I've heard they have a 1,000 HP sc300 with the same engine that is in our GS so they may know what the're doing

thanks guys.
I think hp racing header is actually made by toyomoto.
I have contacted them before and they did confirm that they make headers for gs3. I am just debating which one to get. Xerd or hp racing/toyomoto. I just want best quality one.

Hello, my name is Eyal, i am from XERD. The header that we make for the GS300 is the same header that we make for the IS300. The fit is exactly the same and all the o2 sensors bolt right on and no problem.

We are about to release our GS300 race-pipe, if you are not familiar with these products you can check out www.is300.net and see what people have to say about our products.

Give me a call if you are interested or if i can answer anymore of your questions. 818-347-9060

Thanx, Eyal
Race Pipe??? Would that be the front downpipe that connects to the headers??

I think removing cats on headers is now a 10,000 dollar fine in CA. :eek:
