anyone know of some good aftermarket headers?

 

i got a pace setter and i like it

its the only way to go if you ask me.

 

headers increase mpg slightly right?

 

yes they do. you will get more horsepower, torque and better mpg. i would also do a whole cat back system with a header. thats what i did and i picked up 4mpgs

 

Does this vehicle have an engine?

LC are great headers, but I can't see paying as much for headers as I did for the entire vehicle. Their prices are ridiculous.

I bought Doug Thorley headers for my 3.0. I don't like the sound they make after ~2800rpm. Sounds horrible IMO so I always try to shift right before the nasty sound. It sounds like an exhaust brake on a diesel motor after 2800rpm.

 

yah i saw some of the prices and they are way up there. i'm pretty new to this stuff so i just thought headers would be a good way to get mpg... but i guess not.

what are some good ways to get better mpg?

 

Probably start with searching. I've noticed I use less gas when I don't drive it as much.

 

Regear if you have bigger tires, take all unnecessary junk out of the vehicle, change oil regularly, full tune up, drive slower, dont accelerate fast, brake sooner, make sure the tire PSI is correct and even all around, dont let larger friends ride in your vehicle

 

i dont drive fast, i go the speed limit... what would you classify as unnecessary junk?

 

Garbage, tools/fluids you dont need ( but keep enough for emergencies). Mainly garbage. bum friends

 

4 cyl or V6 3.0 (by looking at your avatar)

3.slow is pointelss.

4 cyl "header" will wake it up a bit if you do the exhaust right

You might think of adding a vehicle description to your signature line and in future posts you start a more specific and elaborate thread title will help in getting useful responses quicker.

 

o ok i got yah. thanks for the tips

 

any suggestions on what type of exhaust i should put on my 1990 4runner. 3.slow auto. 4x4

 

Man you aren't even posting in the right section!! Please use the search, I'm sure most your questions will/have been covered there!!
