thanks for the input.i think the 97 headers were the old style log headers the 99's look all most like headers all ready.so just curious if any one out there has done headers on a 99/2000 vvti motor.

btw the 97 headers are the same as 92-96. it wasnt untill 98 where vvti came into the story.

not to mention, vvti headers have a different bolt pattern and i dont believe anyone has made headers for your cylinder head of the vvti.

sorry. only upgrade for the ugly :P haha. jk. just keep the oem bro, being the vvti and vvti headers, your at max already

kinda what i though as the factory ones look like headers all ready.i do know that the is300 header would work but it looks like the only benfit would be losing the cats.
