OFFICIAL DOUG THORLEY HEADER GROUP BUY!

Just ordered mine, can't wait to get a little more power out of the mighty 2.7l! Thanks 97yota4wd for getting this together and Gadget for doing this!

 

WOW that was fast. As of 9:33am my gaskets and O2 sim showed up via FED EX with a URD sticker in the box...

 

You'll need new crush gaskets for between the y-pipe. The head gasket you can get through Toyota.

 

where do i get the crush gaskets?

 

There is an option on the purchase page for the headers...at least for the LT ones...never looked at the shortie's. I assume you are sticking your old cats back on there?

 

ya, got to i am here in CA. there isnt a option like the LT, could i get them from toyota?

 

If there is not an option on the order page, I'm sure that you can go to your local auto parts store or Toyota dealer and get the crush gaskets.

I'm in for the group buy! How do I get the discount code?

 

Sorry bud, it ended at midnight on the 31st. You might try getting ahold of Gadget at URD and seeing if he can do anything for ya!

 

Did I miss read the first post?

 

According to the first post, group buy close is Jan 31st at midnight. Thats the date/time you needed to get your name on the list! Was your name on the list?

 

ahh... thank you for the clarification!

 

if anybody needs them installed in the SoCal area, let me know. I dont charge nearly as much as a dealer would.

 

Says on the URD site you can reuse the gasket for the heads.

Note: The stock crush to seal gaskets used in the connections between the Y pipe and the exhaust manifolds should not be reused. These gaskets should be replaced. You can select the "INCLUDE GASKETS" box below to have two heavy duty additional crush to seal gaskets included in your order.Doug Thorley recommends that the stock cylinder head gaskets should be reused and new cylinder head gaskets are not included.


Im not sure why it doesnt say you need new crush gaskets on the shorties but I would get them all to be on the safe side to ensure there are no leaks. Better safe then sorry.

 

Anybody have or know where to find dyno info on the 2rz/3rz header??? is it worth it?

 

I think it's because for the shorty's you weld it to the cats so there is no need for gaskets.. As for the header connecting to the motor, you would just reuse the old ones.

 

You would still want a new gasket between the ypipe and cats though. Personally, I think a new head gasket is worth it too.

 

anyone in az want to help the OP install? greatly appreciated and free food!

 

with regards to a new head gasket, any suggestions? is the dealer the best option to get a new gasket or are their better gaskets on the market being sold at a checkers or autozone type of store?
