Key Features & Benefits

1. Premium T304 Stainless Steel Construction
Built to last, the manifold is constructed from corrosion-resistant T304 stainless steel, ensuring superior durability under extreme temperatures and harsh conditions. Unlike cheaper alternatives, this material resists rust and oxidation, preserving structural integrity and aesthetics for years.

2. Performance-Driven Design
Engineered with equal-length tubular headers and mandrel-bent tubing, this manifold minimizes exhaust backpressure and turbulence. The result? Smoother exhaust gas evacuation, faster spooling, and a noticeable boost in horsepower and torque across the RPM range. Drivers will experience sharper throttle response, enhanced acceleration, and a deeper, aggressive exhaust note.

3. Direct Bolt-On Replacement
Designed as a direct fit for 2001-2005 Lexus IS300 models with the 3.0L 2JZ-GE engine, this header eliminates the need for cutting or welding. CNC-machined flanges and OEM-style mounting points guarantee perfect alignment with your existing exhaust system and emissions components, making installation straightforward for DIY mechanics or professionals.

4. TIG Welded for Precision
Every joint is reinforced with industry-standard TIG welding, ensuring leak-free performance and maximum strength under high-pressure conditions. The smooth internal surfaces of the tubing further reduce turbulence, promoting consistent exhaust flow.

5. Emissions Compliance Ready
Maintain street legality with confidence. This header integrates seamlessly with factory oxygen sensors and catalytic converters, ensuring compliance with emissions regulations in all 50 states.
