if you're going to ask Phil888, you could just PM him...
but since your were wondering, there are two companies doing R&D for headers: IMF and PPE.
iirc, mazzuri is not making headers for the 2is anymore, and jun-tw's headers are for the is250 only (and cost an arm and a leg), as are megan racing's headers.
a search for "headers" in the 2is performance subsection would have found all of that for you.
again, for future reference, please use the search function. much appreciated.

yes, the thread might had been opened years ago, but there is a reason why those threads get BUMP time to time..because members keep updating with NEW INFO!!!
so we ask you to keep your eye on those threads to minimize the occurrence of similar threads
here are some threads that were open while ago, but still in progress
so please take your time to read from page 1 all the way to the LATEST post..
hope this helps

you may or may not get Phil888's attention by posting a thread in here, but you can definitely get his attention by sending him a PM. that's what the PM function is for.
as a long-time 2is owner and a frequenter of the 2is section, i believe others and myself should be encouraging the establishment of a sense of community. however, when our patience is being tried with new threads of topics already addressed (as alluded to by SeOuLiS250), we're going to be very straightforward and tell you to use the search function. we're not trying to be jerks, but rather, it's just that simple.
hope you understand.

the same ideas two years ago still apply today. aftermarket support for the 2is is limited at best. that's why very few (iirc, TWO) companies have released aftermarket headers for the 2is to date.

Unfortunately it seems as though some can never make any good supporting comments on this forum. Although it's very insightful to suggest using the "search function" I don't believe we're all n00bs or monkeys. If anyone doesn't have anything useful to post or suggest for the OP then don't post at all. This isn't an over the top "moderate" everyone forum. We are a Lexus community that was formed to help Lexus drivers. If you don't like the thread someone created then don't bother posting. If there's no interest it will die out. So please people let's be welcoming.
Lazar, PPE should be posting info soon regarding their headers.
I as you, was interested in the headers when I first purchased my car. I just feel that I'm going to wait until my warranty expires so I can give them a try

PPE's headers have shown some gain, although that was with a full exhaust system on it already so we don't really know what kind of gains it REALLY is giving...IMF headers are going to R&D'd starting in January I believe, so there is still some time before comparable headers to the PPE ones are out. If you can't wait another 2 months or so I would just go with the PPE ones. they seem to be of excellent quality

^ has anyone tried these headers yet: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Stain...Q5fAccessories - they look like they have some sort of HFC or something in them. Could be a lot less ricey sounding.. a little more lexus like?
