TBDevelopments Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 (edited) this one is for a UK customer. i didn't plan on doing these just yet but the ones provided really didn't fit very well. Plus i've had quite a few now where the flange, turbo end keeps coming loose, pulling studs out or stripping threads because there isn't any flex in the exhaust like there is built into the OEM toyota cat. I built this one to correct that issue. All others will be the same. 10mm Stainless Steel Flanges 3" Flexi Section Perfect Fitment as you can see against the OEM exhaust brace. What do people think? (2nd cat pipe coming shortly.) Thanks for looking Tim TB Developments Edited November 27, 2016 by TBDevelopments (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Nice, like that! Most of the aftermarket ones are 2.5" as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBDevelopments Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 Oh right, needs to be 3" atleast Tim TBDevelopments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBDevelopments Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 Thanks mate, i should have the 2nd pipe done by midweek. You think there would be a market for these Tim TBDevelopments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Thanks mate, i should have the 2nd pipe done by midweek. You think there would be a market for these Tim TBDevelopments Most definitely, if they are price competitively I cant see why they wouldn't sell just as well as other similar brands. I think it would be nice to see a trader market a full BPU package as well, maybe something to consider? especially with the introduction of your custom made back boxes.

TBDevelopments Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 Good point. Obviously these will be a little more because of the quality of the materials involved but this one is being sold at £165.00 delivered (uk) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Good point. Obviously these will be a little more because of the quality of the materials involved but this one is being sold at £165.00 delivered (uk) That doesn't seem unreasonable to me, wifbitz market theirs at £138.00 and a set of both for £228.00, I think if your pricing is roughly in line with theirs then you will be about right. You can get them much cheaper on ebay etc but the quality will obviously be way below your standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wile e coyote Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Just putting this out here Any body thought about doing a second pipe with a racing cat in it I know Not full decat but mine just fails on the mot and thinking if had a racing cat in, would then just pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Supes Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 I'd be interested in one for a UK-Spec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBDevelopments Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 most racing cats won't pass an mot anyway from my experience yeah i was looking at whifbitz's decats when i was pricing them up. but i have alot more material costs involved in mine.

goldenvtr Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 who needs cats when you have a pre 94 import Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBDevelopments Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 got decats for those in exactly the same quality also. Tim TB Developments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBDevelopments Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 as promised the 2nd decat pipe. Again these will be priced the same as the first, not a knock on any other trader or manufacturer but these are priced due to the time involved and materials used and i'd put the quality and fit of these against anything else on the market.

So got uk and jspec 1st decat and 2nd decats now for sale. Built to order. Just getting the gaskets custom made as everyone seems to forget the gaskets Tim TBDevelopments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordy.r Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 These look good Tim Having purchased one of Tim's decats for the MR2 turbo many years ago I can confirm the quality was second to none, I wanted to frame it not fit it! If you ever go down the route of 4" pipework I may be interested as I've currently got the Whifbitz 3" decats but may be looking for more power in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
