For this platform, some of the manufacturers for quality headers at a good price are JDL and Tomei.
This!!! Very true! For an example my 6th gen Celica hardly had any after market support on suspension. Basically all you can choose from is BC and Megan so that’s what everyone went with. At the time 4-5 years ago the car was 20 years old. So replacing stock worn out suspension (100k+ miles on stock) with ANYTHING is basically an upgrade. Brand new Megan would ride better than stock blown suspension so that’s where positive reviews come from. I know we are talking about header on this subject. If every other header is more expensive that should be a sign. Cheaper material is used and it’s China steel. It’ll crack or break or have Fitment issues, who knows how long it would last. Spend a few more bucks and get a well known reviewed products for the 86. Groupie-s or tomei or jdl. 3 best options within reason for the 86. I’ve learned in my teenage years don’t skimp.
