The fabricator has also stated he can build it in stainless steal instead of the original steel to help in slowing rust and increasing durability.

Tom will be delivering the header to him after the holidays and we will hopefully have a price in the new year.

The original header was dynod at around 12-15whp extra with the factory tune. I dont know how long this will be available but if any of you are thinking about a header who have or are going to be swapping a 2zr into your yaris then I wouldn't wait. I made that mistake only to find out the rpm header was discontinued.

This thread is to gauge interest ...

Up front, thanks to Tom for taking the time to drop his header and look into the fab. cost of a reproduction for everyone!

When you made a comment, Trevor, recently about investigating the possibility of having something made I was wondering how soon this would come up.. lol I was also too late to order - I decided I was going to pop for the long tube only to find fastscions.com no longer had it posted and that RPM had since discontinued production.

Stainless would be fantastic, but would depend on price difference and what stainless is being used - i.e. cheap 406 stainless exhaust lasts a bit longer in the salt belt here, but not sure it'd be worth much extra when a steel header could be coated with a high temp paint and probably last just as long.. I suspect if this is a fab shop that is used to doing exhaust work then they'll be well aware of material types - although in California I'm not sure they know (or want to know) what our cars go through for weather each winter..

Short version: I'm 100% interested.
