    you can get one at www.jpperformancellc.com. They also make a mid pipe for 550$. The header is 350$. If you want to contact Erick at EL prototype, you need to either call them or I can put you in contact with someone. PM me if your interested. DC sports is currently developing one but who knows when it'll be out and at what price...

    Thx for the info, i had months hearing about dc sports header hehe...
    I´m from Central America, I have Corolla S, why nobody make or develop enough performance stuff for our model, before this corolla, I got Hyundai Elantra and right now you can find more performance stuff than Corolla :sad:

    Which one is better jpperformancellc or elprototypes?

    The ebay´s one is very cheap hehehe :cool:

    I don't know much about headers for the Corolla...but the Celica headers (both 1ZZ and 2ZZ) sucked and produced very little gains and some losses.

    If the same holds true for the Corolla, consider porting and polishing the header. It's been done on a Celica for pretty decent gains.

    It's been speculated that Toyota's stock headers are already pretty well designed, and a new design won't help much, if at all.

    I agree to 200% with that. This is why I'm leaving the stock header and only go custom piping 2.25.

    For your info, Kenji, the El prototype is a bit of less quality than the JP. There has been a thread on matrixowner comparing the stock, JP and Ebay (it actually looks like the ElP). JP won with better fabric, 3 ceramic coat and choice of 3 colors with better flange and hole diameter. IMO, they're the same except a few things. A good idea is to wait for the DC and see what it does then pick your choice.

    IMHO, 350$USD (which is about approx 430$CDN for me as a Canuck) to gain what? 6-8HP? I don't think it's worth it, unless I go hardcore with turbo or S/c with URD kit.

    I've E-mailed dc sports about when they plan on relesing their headers and exaust for the 03+ model so when I get my reply I will post it here, untill then I am staying stock because with the trd CAI I get a notecable gain above 3000 rpms (missed the M in original post) and the noise the scares hondas
