Toyota Tundra Forum

has anyone installed headers? any suggestions on who has the best price and quality?

Granted, i'm not with the truck yet.. but from all the other cars i've worked with / built or designed, I seem to have the best luck with Weapon R (or tsudo if you want to save $$ and get a very similar product) for toyotas, Greddy and ( oh dear, never thought i'd say that) megan for nissans so far.

The truck comes with stock stainless steel headers. You won't see much improvement unless you go with long tube headers.

I have Thorley Shorty Headers. They help move the torque and power curve lower where it is more usable for towing. The H/P gains are not huge, but the lower torque is very noticeable and visible on a dyno. For best results you need an intake, headers, exhaust and something to tune it all. Unichip is all that is available right now, but DiabloSport may have something in the future.

I do think there are some gains over the stock headers, but it depends on what you are after.
