3.4L Header install...installation tips/advice
So I have heard many mixed reviews on headers...but I got them anyway for my 2000 4Runner. I'm just looking for any advice on the installation process or if anyone knows tips/tricks for an easier (fingers crossed) install. I have a 3" Revtek lift, no body lift. Any info would be appreciated, thanks.

I considered both headers and an exhaust for my '02 4Runner. After hearing many opinions and facts, I've decided that I will probably not be doing either on my rig. Although I may run a TRD exhaust when the stocker rusts or gives out.
Basically, I've seen proof that a header and exhaust mod will give you minimal HP gain for your money. I've also seen that it is best to run an aftermarket header with an aftermarket exhaust.
I don't really see a problem using an aftermarket header on your 4Runner but I'm not sure if it is really worth the money you spent.

Well, eventually a s/c will be finding its way into the hood, so I figured it will all be worth it in the long run. So I'll suffer through the install...
