Um...very powerful? stock 1UZ? Toyota NEVER makes a car with more than "adequate" power from the factory. The best part about the headers is that they are interchangeable, so you can point them both forward for a single turbo setup. Stock headers dont flow for shit though...full I/E on it with some here and there should yield 250-280wHP

So, let me get this straight. You bought that car for $500 and the only thing that was wrong with it was a water pump?

YES!!! The previous owner heard metal on metal grinding and thought it was a rod knock but actually it was the water pump hitting the fan!
