OFFICIAL DOUG THORLEY HEADER GROUP BUY!

thought i'd share my realization that these are still damn sexy even with a muddy engine

 

That sucks. Will they honor you with the GB price though?

 

yeah haha he was really nice about it haha.

 

Is your crank pully the same size as the stock? Also, where did you purchase it from?

 

I wasnt in on the GB, but found someone who decided they didnt want there LT headers so I got them from him for the GB price. Got them from him today. Unfortunately I go to Afghanistan this weekend so we be able to install them until I get back in 6mos. Just another reason to get back here safe and sound (wife, kids and headers!!)

 

^congrats on the buy. Stay safe over there and thanks for your service.

 

Got mine yesterday! Thank you Gadget for helping set up this great deal

 

Its the same size as oem it just weighs 50 oz less than stock. It was a one off made by NST for superwerty but he never got to install it and needed some quick cash so i nabbed it up.

 

Installed mine today. Driver side was a bitch but passenger side fell right in. To much rasp for me, how do i get ride of it? I got the long tubes and a Gibson cat back.

 

My guess is the Gibson is coupling with the headers and causing the rasp. With the stock exhaust things don't sound bad at all.

 

how much was the installation ? i went to several shops and it seems that the prices are different by a couple of hundreds. so im wondering what you all paid

please leave feedback on installation if you have the doug thorley shorty headers on a 4.0 tacoma! shops charging me 800,650,and 300...with prices that ranges like that doesnt sound too good,and it makes me so skeptic on who to go to

 

think most of us installed ourself

 

I'd guess that only a select few ordered shorties...

 

Good find. Did you get all that installed yet? I would love to know what you think of that setup. I am installing a 2.8" urd pulley when I get back home.

 

yeah thats what im thinking too..most of you guys can order the long tube because your state isnt gay like california..cali is wayyyy to strict on emissions..trust me,i would have bought the long tube as well,but the shorty was my only option

 

Arizona gets emissioned as well but i said screw it and got the o2 sims. my truck sounds like a beast with the long tubes and a 3" cat back and og 40 series

 

How long did everyone have to wait from the time of purchase to the time it arrived at your home?

I ordered mine on the 7th and still nothing, and I cant get any response from DT either.

 

lol i envy you tho..i did my smog yesterday and i failed the visual with a TRD intake that is 48 state legal..the guy at toyota was curious,so he tested me with the TRD intake and the tested me with the stock box..not surprised that the TRD intake ran so much cleaner than the stock box..good luck getting smogged with the long tubes though

 

That sucks, I hope that dont happen to me but if it does I guess I'll just swap for the bastards and then swap back.

 

I ordered mine on 02/01/2011 and got them last friday, I posted before that I spoke with Gadget and he stated some people with oddball orders would be awhile.
