OFFICIAL DOUG THORLEY HEADER GROUP BUY!

Let us know what DT says!

 

Will do. Hopefully I get a break from work so I can give them a ring. Oh wait I'm on TW so I might as well call.....

 

can you send that update our way too? got my gasket and sensor in the mail yesterday but still no headers...when my gaskets and sensor shipped i got an email saying they were being sent from DT so i'm in the same boat...

 

lol, I was just thinking... wait, he's on TW at work, but has to wait for a break to make a call?

 

Just called and only the receptionist is there at this point. Gotta call back in about 30 min. If I don't get a chance the # is 1-800-347-8664.

 

it might take awhile to get your headers cause some are getting ceramic coated still. what gadget said a while back. last day to order headers!!!!!!!

 

Looks like they just got them back from being coated today. He told me they would most likely ship out Monday. Can't wait to get these things here and installed.

 

Sweet, thanks for the update!

 

^^we're scheduled for some warm(er) weather starting next week too!!

 

I came home to these sweet things today(sorry for the crappy cell phone pic), probably going to put them on tomorrow. i will let you guys know how they feel as soon as i am done.

 

well doesnt look like it is going to happen this weekend cause they didnt come with the thing to screw in the O2 sensor

 

ah dam really!?

 

Not $2, $15. I am certain that if you were in my position you would have asked for the refund that the vendor offered and would have not been impressed with the way you were treated. Again, it's not the money... it's the lack of respect from the seller that I do not appreciate.

 

ordered mine yesterday...so glad i stumbled on this GB. thanks to 97yota4wd and Shemicals for responding to my questions. and thanks to Gadget for offering this to us...although some folks are quibbling over a few dollars, the savings we were offered is better than nothing and we should be appreciative of URD's service. i am missing one important part though...the truck, lol currently shopping around for a 4-cylinder double cab and from the reviews of this header it should help in a big way...i test drove one and the power is adequate, but could use a little more oomph.

 

yep, if you look on the pics online at urd or thorley, you can see a little thing(dont know what to call it) at the bottome of the header, and mine dont have that. its a big bummer, i sent an email over to URD and probably hear something on monday.

 

The O2 sensors screw into something called a 'bung'. You can buy them really cheap and have them welded on.
I did this on my G35C when I put on my S/C. I needed something for my wideband to screw into. I think the part was $2 at NAPA IIRC.

 

ya i am just going to wait and see what URD says first, it should have came with it in the first place. If they are going to make me pay for shipping round trip, then i will just get a couple of the those bungs. Thanks for the part name.

 

When I read the description of the short tubes, I had a similar question that I asked regarding the bungs and whether they were necessary for our application. And although this may or may not apply to what you asked in specific, this is the response from Gadget that I received to my question.

The new short tubes are designed to fit two different engines. The 2010+ FJ has the O2 bungs in the cats. So, for the old style 1GR you will have to add the O2 bungs which are included when you weld your cats on

 

does he mean that they were included in the box with the headers or use the ones that are already on the headers? Cause i didnt get any with my box. Guess i will have to pick up some from the auto parts store. I wish they would have included something in the item description along the lines of what he emailed you.

 

I interpret that to mean that they are included w/ the headers.
