!!Doug Thorley Headers 4.7L V8!!

got a pic of the headers with sensors?

You can see a side built out alone on attached. The other sensor would be just downstream of flange shown in this pic.

Exhaust built by NorTex Auto Works in Ft. Worth. I'm not sure what they are using but they definitely know their Toyotas. I heard this on a Tundra and knew it was spot on for what I wanted.

I know it’s annoying but would you call and ask what mufflers they put in? It sounds awesome.
 
I took my v8 to the shop on friday to install DT Headers and a Gibson catback system.

He wasn't willing to install the headers because it required the welding of the cats to the headers. Pretty disappointing to have there for 3 days and that be the conclusion.

I was warned about the difficulty of having such work done, and a recommendation of buying the full flanged bolt on setup was the best way to go.

Any thoughts?
 
There’s no longer emissions in WA. But I hate the smell of running catless. I will eventually get the DT long tubes and a single 3” slip on stainless magnaflow high flow cat. Will have an exhaust shop modify the center pipe that extends between my URD Y pipe and my URD magnaflow muffler to accept the cat with two stainless clamps, (basically cut and clamp in). Then I will attempt install of the long tubes whenever is convenient without having to worry about welding.

You might consider doing something similar with your system.

I now have LONG TUBE headers that were just released that don't require welding and a new Y pipe for a great deal. Now some states need cats, but for you, the welding isn't hard. This should be a big deal for them to do.

For any of you that want the NEW long tubes and Y pipe that's only around $400, call or text me at 717-319-2100

It's no problem, i just texted him. So the mufflers are designed in-house by them and an friend of the owners. X pipe is Jones.

Contact Dave on their FB page and he can probably give you more info. They do production runs and can ship them out too.
 
Jason (thank you sir) sold me the shorty headers, magnaflow cats, y-pipe, gibson SS exhaust with dual black side exits. I did put the O2 sensor spacer in.

Running like a champ. I enjoy giving it gas more now and am still on the dash showing a 1mpg increase.

A bit of a drone at cruising rpms. Hope that drops a bit over time?

My shop did the welding and install of everything in a day and charged me just under $1k.

Your welcome! Glad to hear it. .Yea, it should get smoother and you shouldn't notice anything then. Yes, for the shorty headers, they do require welding. The new LONG tubes I just got do not need welding. $1k isn't bad. I've heard anywhere from $500 in Colorado, they do a ton of these, up to $1,200 install. Most seem to pay around $800-$1k, so you did good.

For anyone in PA, we can install these for you for around $750.

TO order the new long tubes (no welding), new Y pipe, etc, call or text me at 717-319-2100. ALL IN STOCK at the moment!

Anybody have any tips on getting to the bottom 4 bolts on the header. Been trying to remove my manifolds to install long tubes and not having much luck

I installed the long tubes last weekend. I had to use about 10 different 14mm wrench and socket setups. To get the bottom 4 off I used a universal joint with about 4 extentions and a breaker bar.
 
Any Canadians order the new long tubes? Not sure where is the best place to order them from. Amazon.ca lists Doug Thorley headers and include free shipping... Hoping they will eventually list these.

I have them IN STOCK and will ship to Canada all day long. Don't mention that bad word on here :) I've sold/shipped 3 sets to Canada already. Not an issue.

2003 GX470 guy (non vvti) Dan Kunz threw down some dyno results with the DT long tubes and a full custom exhaust with high flow cats after that.

"(awhp/awtq) 200/246 stock to 221/281 after with just headers, HO cats, and exhaust."

From my butt dyno I'd agree! Good gains and no more ticking manifolds.

Seen any hwy MPG gains?
 
Can someone tell me where I can buy the Y-pipe in the attached picture? It looks like there is a high flow cat on it.

I ordered the DT headers (long pipe) and Y-pipe from Jason B (great guy and super-responsive) in 2019 but never got them on my 4th gen v8. Due to family change I sold my 4Runner and my wife wants them out of the basement. My loss, your gain.

I have them new in an opened box and would like to sell them. For some reason I cant post in the classified so putting here for now.

Asking $900 for both. I'll eat up to $100 worth of the shipping cost. Ping me using etratnyek at gmail
