Default MPH Unlimited SC300 Headers Update!

Here is the link to the dyno sheets.

http://community.webshots.com/user/mphunlimited

Click on the NA supra, SC300 and GS300 parts to view the dyno sheets.

The dynos were done about 3 weeks apart, first dyno was with the car bone stock and the 2nd dyno with our headers on it. This dyno was done on a lexus SC300.
The reason it doesn't show any torque increase is because we had a bad leak between our headers and the stock downpipe due to a mismatched flange.

The production version will have the right flange on it and will come with the needed gaskets for a perfect seal.

The car pulls much harder with the headers on them, very hard on the highway.

The sound of the car sounds more aggressive even with the stock exhaust but wont get you pulled over.

The header system is now available to purchase, please allow 2 weeks for delivery because they just went into production today.

[AGAIN, please clear it with Ethan before BLATANTLY advertising on ClubLexus...]

That is a great idea. We want an affordable, quality, log style, cast turbo exhaust manifold. Please.

Al,
A few of us SC300 guys are interested in a quality log style cast manifold for turbo application. Something that will bolt to the 2JZ head and accept say a t60-1 turbo. Are there any plans from your company to develope something like this. I would be willing to invest 1,000$. I don't know about the others, but I'm sure there are a few whom are looking for options. Let us know what you/MPH unlimited think.

Thanks,
AJ

From another site:
I'm wondering??
Why waste time and money on a header, when you could have made a turbo exhaust manifold that you could sell like crazy?? just wondering cause I need a turbo exhaust manifold to convert my n/a, and everyone wants the same price i could buy a new gte head for from toyota, and we all know someone with their stock tt manifold and t-20's in a corner. If someone could create a manifold or adapter to allow a tt manifold to fit an n/a motor, they would be making $$$.

cheers,
garyhein@hotmail.com
********************************

That's three. I think. Gary really wants a single turbo log style quality cast manifold though. He doesn't realize that yet.

Once we are finished with our turbo kits for the lexus we will sell our turbo manifolds as well, but for now we came put with the headers for the NA guys.

Thanx. AL

cool, please let us know when your turbo manifold is done... most of us want to make our own kit because we all have different needs...

the two GOOD manifolds:
the Toyomoto was $1000 when he was selling it, he's not anymore

the only other one that I know of sold by itself is the Performance Factory header, which is a tubular equal length high quality unit... $1500 with a 3" downpipe

Both of these are FAR too expensive

turbo manifolds for the L28T motor for the 280zx turbo is only like $450-$600 and they are good quality pieces
