    Will a 2.7 3RZ 4cylinder that is supercharged benefit from running a Doug Thorley TRI Y Header such as this header , It has merge collector design and primary pipe size of 1-1/2" and (2) 2.25" collectors

    Yes, performance headers are hugely beneficial on a supercharged motor. More air going in means more should be allowed to go out, which a stock exhaust system isn't going to be able to do very efficiently. Performance headers will help to achieve this. This is why people who install headers on a stock NA motor don't see much performance gain, they're allowing more air out without putting more in. Of course they see some gains but nothing compared to what a boosted engine will see.

    I have the TRD headers and exhaust on my supercharged 3.4l and out helps a ton, sounds sexy as hell too :headbang:

    Different than your stock headers? Oh yeah, it'll be deeper and more aggressive I'm sure. But I've never had Doug Thorley headers though so i can't say for sure what they sound like in any sort of detail, someone else will have to chime in on that. They are popular though
