    wow you were lucky to get that header in stock. I remember I tried for a while to get them and just gave up and got the obx header.

    Well I got a call from Megan racing customer service they said there was a mistake on their website that the headers were out of stock and they wouldn't have any till the end of the year so gonna get the obx headers instead.

    ahh that sucks. that happened to me as well. obx isn't bad, you just have to modify it. Milky is selling his m2 header, you might want to hit him up.

    I welded a flex pipe in there, and also welded the o2 sensor flange directly to the header.

    Any of those throttle bodies will work as they are all drive by cable. For the intake manifold, the first one looks to be the correct one. I would double check the part number to be sure.

    Ok thanks I went ahead and ordered the first IM and ended up getting it for 100 plus shipping which seemed fair compared to the others I've seen.

    Are you talking about a Celica ecu into a 5 speed 8th gen? It's completely different. Gotta do a patch harness. Not hard if you know simple wiring.

    Does anybody know the diameter of our upper radiator hose? I'm trying to find some flexible radiator hose for my IM/TB swap and I'm not sure what size to get.

    Do you think a flexible radiator hose that's 1.5 in. Diameter would work with hose clamps that's the smallest I can find and I really don't wanna change my radiator.

    Yeah I was thinking wrap some plumbers tape or electrical tape around the place the hose goes on to make a tighter fit.
