sup guys i just wanted to get some advice on what brand of headers i can buy for my 05 TL. Anyone one have headers installed? how does it sound? how much? what brand?

 

here we go again... look 3-4 thread down

 

........

 

Search for headers, when you find some that will fit, get back to us. Goodluck

 

Should be like a 30 day wait from registration to being able to make new threads

 

^ and after the 30 days there is a test to make sure that you know your shit.

 

He registered in October. This is December. Would not matter.

 

and then a background check

 

should hand out a a test after 30 days for membership. 70% pass or higher

 

Get a skunk2 header

 

Or used the search feature 10 times lol

 

The test should include a list of "must know" facts about the TL. This way Acurazine members will only be knowledgeable ppl

 

try 2kracing.com they have headers for the 3.2 engines

 

Um you do realize that's for the 2nd Gen TL. They do not make headers for the 3rd Gen as our "heads" are casted into our block.

Well, headers or primaries cast into the heads but we know what you meant.

 

So to answer your question, since no one else has...

There is no such thing as headers for the 04-08 TL, or newer J series engines for that matter. The exhaust manifold is built into the engine in our cars. There are two primary Cat converters right off the cylinder head (pre cats) which meet into a J pipe. These two pipes combined are essentially a header. You can either replace the Pre cats with High flow pre cats or pre cat delete pipes. The j pipe you can also replace. By doing both of those you will net roughly 20-30hp depending on the setup you go with.

 

LOL, yes I meant to type heads and not block

 

Yup, just like what accordflux said. You can check out www.heeltoeauto.com they have a variety of selections of J pipes and pre cats as well as cat back exhausts. Great mods to start out with

 

I think there should be a forced search before any new member can make a thread.

Furthermore, almost anytime I Google anything for my car, this site and the stickied threads are what come up.
