Proof enough for what???

Just because a company doesn't do CARB testing doesn't mean they are a joke, there are other companies that don't do carb testing.

Even NYC said a long tube set wouldn't "likely" be carb legal because it is a change to what the OEM setup is. Especially since there will only be 2 cat's instead of 4 cats which the OEM is providing. It also take a lot of money and time to get carb legal. The only reason most of your shorty headers are carb legal is because they are not moving or removing any of the OEM emissions equipment. Once you move or remove something for emissions it becomes very difficult to be carb legal and every time you test you have to redesign your product based on what CARB says, it's not like you just run your stuff down and poof it's CARB legal.

Again, proof of what???

Geez I can imagine what one of those TURD Toyota techs will say once they get the Tundra up on the rack for warranty work and find LT's, no cats, full exhaust, lift, gas shocks, etc etc lol. I remember a guy over on corvetteforum that took his cammed, s/c'ed, nitroused, C6 in for warranty work just to see the responses of the techs at the dealer lol. Good $hit. I want LT's!!

Yea just let him take it for a spin and then he'll come back and be ok with all the non-toyo mods lol.

Not sure if you represent the company or not and maybe it is just me but your attitude toward people asking questions/making comments sucks; if you represent the company than I am not interested based on you.

I'm interested - count me in. Although I'm currently working on my own set of longtubes, I'd sure like to cut out all the r&d here since I'm not likely going to duplicate my results after everything is said and done.

Is this company you are talking about by chance S+S headers?

If this is such a great company and have been around for so long, why are you keeping their name a secret ??????

[pullthis]

are they willing to make me the first set. even custom if they dont decide to do it? is it obx?

[pullthis]

delete

[auwng]

I'd sure love to have a set, if they will improve MPG! How soon are we talking availability?

[Negra]

Prolly cause they haven't and they'll fab up some cool sales pitch closely resembling the ones for trottlebody spacers (fake dyno sheets and all)and hook gullible people into believing their the authority on said items.

For someone acting as the pitch man he sure needs to get educated on the lingo attached to "OFF ROAD APPLICATION" cause that round the bush BS he slung out there wouldn't get my second look on said product.

Weld some tubes together bolt them on a motor,disconnect the drive shaft,do a motor pull and post a dyno with 50hp gain @ the crank over stock.

More he runs his head the less likely they'll hook anybody
so . . . .

i hate to be rude...but after reading some of these posts, i have realized a few things.

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.
