first of all, why would you come to a forum to ask if people are interested? and i hope you are visiting more than just one forum. there are WAY more tundra drivers on this earth than what you see in this forum. the tundra is a FAST truck and almost everyone with a 5.7 is looking to mod it in any way possible, so theres basically not much of a need to ask that kind of question. maybe if you told the company name, MORE people would be interested (if it is a reputable company). this unknown company will not have any dyno results, so how can you tell if there is REALLY any gains? seat of the pants test is not accurate at all, and most people will THINK their vehicle is faster simply because they put something on it or because it sounds faster. as far as the CARB and cats and all that bs, when 'they' sell the headers, just say they are for off road use only and sell them without cats, that way the people who DON'T want cats dont waste their money, and the people that DO want them can just buy some high flows. this would make the product much cheaper and allow the company to sell many more sets. why not offer two sets, one with cats, and one for off-road thats catless? the way you are informing us, NOBODY will be interested. i am only 18 years old, and i haven't even taken any business courses, but i feel as if i could sell a product much better than you and this random company you are talking about. marketing, customer service, and PROVEN RESULTS are what makes a product sell, and this company has neither of the three.
until i see some company names, dyno sheets, pics, or phone numbers, im calling BS on this one. what you are saying just isnt adding up.

Understandible, no bashing here at all and I know your concerns.
The company hasn't said yes they are going to do anything yet, this is why I haven't given anything yet.
As soon as they say yes or that they think it will work, I will provide ALL the information you are talking about. Other than dyno sheets, but I addressed that stuff previously.
They will design a fully bolt on kit. If this actually happens and you want just the headers, they may sell just the headers without the cats to anyone for off-road only use. They make several headers for migit(sp?) and half-track cars, they do a lot of race design stuff to which is not street legal so the likelyhood would be that they will sell a set without cats and whatever else you want, but the group buy would be set up for a full bolt on set with everything needed to keep your truck street legal. I know this is a change from my previous post but I'm not a salesman or anything for this company so I have to ask questions just like you do.
I haven't posted up on other sites, I am not a pitch-man or a sales person for the company, I am not really excited about doing a group buy for them either, it is actually kind of a pain in the butt, but I know the product and believe it is worth it and am willing to pass this on to this forum, but I really don't have the time or desire to do it through all the other forums on the web.
Hopefully I have answered your questions and I can tell you that this is not B/S. I know, I'm saying "Trust me!, It's cool!" This is hard to swallow looking at a computer screen, but I have been here for a little while now and I won't be going anywhere and I have done a couple group buys before so It's not my first rodeo and I want this to go off-without a hitch.
