Group buy for Doug Thorley PREMIUM VERSION headers, need 20 people!

How are these more "premium" than the regular long tube that are for sale? You are down around Harrisburg right? I read in another post that you guys also install them at a decent rate. If I were to buy a set could I have you guys install them at a later date?

These are full 304 stainless with everything SS: air tubes, flanges, collectors, etc. The Rolls Royce version. You can order the regular ones if you want too with no wait time. These are just the top end choice for those that asked for them.

Yes, can install for you. $800-$1,100 depending how many studs break, etc.

Cool. Anyone down there do tunes for the 4.7L? How many cats are these running anyway? 4?

I sold my v8 4runner and regret it, but as luck would have it I'm back in the market. In about 2 weeks I'll be looking to swap out my 14 raptor for yet another v8 4runner. How long do I have to get on this wait list as I'm not sure which year I'll need yet but 100% LT version is a must!!!

No tune needed, but in the future there will be a tune. With the LONG TUBES it eliminates the front (2) cats. Then if you do the Y pipe, it has resonators in the new Y pipe so you don't need any cats. If you don't do the new Y pipe, you'd have 2 cats in the rear.

Well, we got about 10 people committed in about 4-5 days. We NEED 20 before this will even start. After that a few weeks at least to get them made. I'd say you have 2 months without having to worry.
 
I honestly believe the V8 4Runner and GX470 will be highly sought after down the road. Now that you can easily get 30+ HP and 3-4 more MPG highway (many customers have reported this on stock trucks, my one recent customer with 285's is getting 2-3 more) this is going to be the truck to have. The last 4Runner V8, solid reliability I think these will become just like the sought after 3rd gens.
 
Sorry for sounding repetitive, but how do you deal with the O2 sensors with this LT install?

As for those of us that like to "one stop shop", is there any possibility for an install kit with gaskets/studs/nuts/etc?

I'd probably be down for the upgraded y-pipe as well, although I'm happy to leave at least one set of cats in the system so I'm not totally polluting (thankfully they got rid of AirScare here in BC).
 
Yes I have just about everything. For the O2's I have CEL eliminators, ship with the headers, not expensive, fixes all codes! Most people call their orders in as they have questions and it's a big purchase for them, so yes check engine lights not an issue. Now, nuts/studs etc, best to order from Toyota if you want.

Anyone can call me at 717-319-2100 and I can go over it if any questions.

We now have 11 people!

What parts on the currently available long tubes aren't 304? Or worth the extra $50?

What about a matching premium 304 y-pipe?

Add me for the 05-09 long tube please.

Hey all! Just had mine done about 6 weeks ago. Headers shorties, ypipe, cats, exhaust. Did a whole new suspension at the same time. I can't even explain how much I love driving this truck now. Super responsive even with the AC on. Sounds incredible.

If I'm easy on the gas I saw an increase from like 15/16mpg to 18/19mpg. City driving and with my extra love of the gas I'm still around 15/16 but it was closer to 14 before. Definite gains.

Don't know how much difference the suspension work made. 3" lift between billys at 1.85" and FJ coils. Did all control arms and some other things, truck is level.

Running Faulken 275/70's and had a little rub on the JBA UCA so had to do spacers.

Rig is awesome is all I can say. Everything was pricey but I got a new truck! Highly recommend!
 
I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that the LT are not legal in Cali[emoji2369]

Guys I really want to pull the trigger on the long tubes....I am hesitant though because of legality. The county I live in (Pitt) no longer does emissions inspections, but isn't it still illegal to remove catalytic convertors if they come from the factory? If they don't do emissions inspections I should still be able to pass an inspection without any cats or at least without the front 2 right?
 
I would be interested in shorties with hi flow cats already welded on. Wonder why they don't make this an option. I'm sure there is some interest since this car comes like that from factory and pretty much every single v8 has or will have a cracked manifold.
