Two and a half months later not a single exhaust has appeared despite having a ready made jig, any competent manufacturer could produce one in a couple of hours!

global supplies of unobtainium have caused a temporary delay in production, I thought everyone knew that

Ah but remember it was being redesigned though

Yes yes i know that kills stone dead the original copying argument but why let the facts get in the way of a good story

hey guys, i've not had anything to do with this thread at all, not even read it as i'm not in the market for an exhaust. i decided to give it a read when i noticed it had 22 pages of replies though, and well i'm glad i did, its made me laugh no end! just so i've got this straight, chris tullett used to develop exhausts with TMS, now he's doing his own thing & TMS have got all in a flutter about it & say they are going to sell manifolds at a great loss to themselves, to prove a point!? great stuff!

[severnless]

so lets get a list going in true .org styley what have we been promised over the .org years then 1. chheeeeppp 4 branch manifold for £200 2. throttle bodies? soooo long since these were to be immanently released 3. free remaps?? 4....... i applaud small business and it looks as though Mr tullett has a very good produced that might need a little fettling to fit but at least you can have one!! surely if Mr Randle would endorse it, it must be good!! after all look at the success he had with the first race with the Eroupa! and what racing success did the other tuner have over the years?? so come on lets get this list going!!

great stuff!

almost. tulets designed a new manifold from scratch, tms accussed tullets of copying their design so said they sell theirs for £200. Many people commented that the designs were different, totally different, but TMS cared not a jot and made the £200 offer.

3.000 said i'll have one

TMS had a heart attack, went back on the original offer and started muttering about changing the design to make it cheaper to produce......neatly missing the point that this would shoot the whole "copying" argument down in flames. Some months on f*ck all has appeared.

As severnless says this sort of thing has been happening for years with TMS. TMS supercharger anybody ?

[severnless]

tut tut Mr Donkey, must add it to the list lets see how long we can get it!! 1. chheeeeppp 4 branch manifold for £200 2. throttle bodies? soooo long since these were to be immanently released 3. free remaps?? 4. supercharger 5....... as an old hand you could come up with a few to add to the list i would just like to see how much b/s has been spread over the years by a certain company yes I'm prepared to risk all the pm's and solicitors letters (did Guy ever get one?)

If it's not too much to ask is it possible to have an update on the progress of the TMS manifold!!
