Re: Toyota Headers
I helped my friend install a Downey header on his Tacoma 2.4 and it made a big difference all around. The install was not that bad and took about 2 hours or so.....its worth the $$$.

If you dont have exhaust and intake get LC enginnerings EFI kit it comes with Exhaust Header, K&N Filter Charger Kit, EFI Pro Camshaft and a Big Bore Throttle Body its 900 bucks and you get 25-30 more hp. Its well worth the money, all of there products are check out there website www.lcengineering.com

Re: Toyota Headers
Doug Thorley has a good header I used on my race truck but is a 20R head on a 22R block. I don't know what they have for newer models.
Has anyone seen or have a recomendation for headers on a 3.4 V6?

Re: Toyota Headers
We didnt use any special tools. The hardest part was a crosover tube thing that went behind the engine for something I forget what it was. It was kinda hard to get on but thats about it.
Just make sure you put gasket sealer on the supplied gasket and you shouldnt have any leaking problems.

Re: Toyota Headers
Ive installed plenty of Downey Taco 2.4/2.7/3.4 headers. They all fit well and are available with ceramic finish.
Thorley does not make a header for any Taco.
On your motor, look for about 7HP at the wheel.
While your in there, do a cat back 2.25" intermediate pipe, muff and tail pipe. That together with an intake will be really nice.
You can not touch the cat cuz its an OBD2. At least in CA that is.
