HOT

This thing kicks ass. When i punch it, the rev goes right to 6000 RPM in no time!!
The gain is Very noticeable and i do not hear any noise compare to stock header.
now i just need mugen muffler.(yea..i wish)
anyway very satisfied by the result.
If you have some extra $$ i would definitly get this after Sway Bar.
too bad. I never raced IS300 though..

I have been saying it since last September. Get the headers and you won't be disappointed.

Congrats! I'd like one too, but unfortunately I live in Canada, where the exchange rate is killing me! Hopefully the C$ will be stronger next year.

i have one question. I heard/read somewhere that the comptech header is made of different material than stock header, and gives off more heat ... wouldnt that damage things under the hood? cuz i heard your engin bay would get a lot hoter.

Logically this seems true. BTW there is no stock header. It's a manifold.

Get the Jet-Hot coating if you are worried about extra heat from the headers. Basically the coating goes on the INSIDE and OUTSIDE of the headers so it helps prevent heat from getting into the metal of the headers and as a result the heat goes out the exhaust instead of being absorbed into the stainless steal. I might not be describing it right, but the coating is NOT like a header wrap which traps the heat in header and causes them to corrode quicker. The Jet-Hot coating should make your headers last even longer but it could cause problems with your catylitic converter if all the extra heat somehow negatively affects it. I'm just speculating as a lot of us like to do here.

It will cost you a little less than $300 including shipping to get the V6 headers coated.

what does the header/manifold do?
how does the new header do it better?
