Ok here goes......yes I have searched the forums and found 0 info. I can get a brand new set of dna headers for my is250.... has anyone put these on their car? Do they fit good and are they worth the hassle? I can get them for 100$ still in the package. I know they are cheap but my nephew is a lexus tech so he's going to install them for me for free. I want to legit feedback not just someone who's read reviews on them. I'm currently all stock except hotchkis springs, drilled and slotted rotors, 20" tsw nagaros and takeda intake. I can't decide which exhaust I want yet, probably the invidia or gthaus but I don't want it really loud. I'd like to just run the headers with stock mufflers. Thanks in advance guys @lowlexusis250 Instagram

 

For $100 on the headers and $0 in labor, I say DO IT no matter.

 

DNA motoring makes headers? Aren't they based out of city of industry or something like that? If so then I'll go buy a set tomorrow. Too bad I won't be able to give you any feedback on sound as I'm running twin turbo on mine with no cats or resonators.

 

Yea ebay has a few sets for less then 220$ I've just never heard of anyone putting them on their car. Hate to do 6-8 hrs of labor for nothing. I've read that their exhausts don't always fit that great so I'm a lil sceptical about even taking on a project like this and them not fitting. Especially since I want to use stock mufflers and maybe a midpipe

 

Link to where you found them?

 

Save up for PPE's, proven craftsmanship, that's what I am doing.

 

I pulled the trigger on some catless ebay headers. Paid $141 out the door with tax included. On my way to pick them up now. I'm having a shop install them tomorrow

 

The headers look great for the price I paid. Welds and bends are smooth and they look free flowing.

 

From what I've read about these the biggest thing is the shorty design. If you look at the PPe style they are long tubes as opposed to the shorty style like pictures above. Our stock headers almost resemble the shorty style. Long tubes will always be better then a shorty style. OBX makes a copy long tube style

 

That's the same ones!! What exhaust are u running? I'm anxious to know lol

 

I'm running a rear mounted twin turbo setup with a fully custom exhaust so my car is going to sound completely different than yours as I have no mufflers, resonators or cats... Just turbos towards the end of the exhaust.

 

after this header install.... would you need an 02 sim?

 

Got the headers installed today. Perfect fit! Everything bolted on properly. The car feels way quicker, turbos spool up faster and sounds awesome even just at idle.

I didn't install an o2 sim so I'll see how that goes with the CEL

 

thnx to keep us posted regarding the chk light. this is the only thing that is keeping me from putting in a header

props

 

I'll keep you guys updated on the check engine light situation.

I have no idea if there would be any noticeable gains with an axle back or a full exhaust or intake as I am running a rear mounted twin turbo setup and my full exhaust and intake are custom made. Sorry about that.
