Thread: Header Options

  1. #1

    Header Options

    Are there really no other options that a TU header (w/ only a chrysler flange) and a ported stocker?

    I want to run a GT3071R, but they don't come in a Chrysler flange. What options are out there?

    I have money and am willing to pay 500-600 range for a good header w/ correct fitment and the universal flange everyone but us uses!

    Re: Header Options

    Your better off with the GT3076R and TU header. Its easier and the difference between the turbos will not be that substantial. I just bought a GT3076R.

    Chris told me he doesn't do a T3 flange anymore only the chrysler. He said they didn't fit right or something like that

    PM Stephane. He's about the only person in this TD community that thinks that you should lean away from ported stock this and ported stock that. I have one of his equal length headers and it works great! Otherwise, you might have build your own haha.

    Hmmmmm, news to me, I guess he changed his mind.

    The only other person I know is Typert, I am running his T3 Flanged log header. I had some fitment issues but I got around them. I know Kevin F isn't have good luck with it, but I am sure they can figure it out.

    I had two of Typert's headers...they both sucked! I got it worked out with Chris & the turbo I want, but if he wouldn't have obliged I would have had SMP build me one for sure.

    Re: Header Options

    If you have any access to machining and welding equipment you can make your own with not too much trouble. I started mine and it's coming along OK. Then you can put what ever turbo flange you want on. I can throw up a .dxf file of the flange I got laser cut and one of the turbo flange as well (I'm just doing the turbo flange on a manual mill) if anyone is interested. Then you can just send the file/s to a laser cutter, get the flanges cut, buy some elbows for 40 bucks and have fun fabricating. Just the way I think anyway. Here's a link to what I am doing. Nothing revolutionary but because I'm doing it myself it will be exactly what I want.

    Re: Header Options

    Threw them on the cardomain site and hosted them that way. Hope it works now. All that for something that is no where near ground breaking. I just like building stuff myself so I know what I'm getting. Maybe a little too paranoid that way plus it's fun.

    Re: Header Options

    +1 for the dont go with a type rt header. mine was horrible. one of the worst dealings ive ever had with the td group. I used up all of my dremel bits (over 10) on trying to clean the thing up and it still looked bad when I put it on. Plus i had to modify all the lines anyway, wasnt stock location like stated. If the head comes off a tu is going on, assuming they have one in stock at the time.
