Draxas is extremely busy right now guys, pelase understand that they got back from SEMA not too long ago and then the thanksgiving weekend came up, so they spent time with their families.

As for the S-Pipe, the S-Pipe is still under development, so a part cant be shipped if it isnt made.

If there are any other questions I will answer them to the best of my abality. Please have faith in Draxas, they are out to make the best exhaust system for the tC.

This exhaust obviously sounds good. I would be much more interested if if was dyno proven. Did I miss a graph somewhere?

Well it's past the 28th and I haven't seen any updates on the resonator that they are going to be adding to the exhaust. ( 28th was suposed to be the fitment day for the resonator) Has anyone heard any thing about if they have completed it yet?

Incorrect. the 28th was the APPROXIMATE time they were going to try to get a tC on the dyno with the exhaust that has a resonator.

As I said before, please be patient, Draxas wants to ensure the tC owners get a quality product. So all in all it comes down to:

Waiting a little longer to put out a quality product

or...

Releasing what they have now and not being 100% satisfied (not to say what they have now isnt good, but they are striving for perfection, and most importantly, what the tC owners want!)

So again, please be patient, I am positive it will pay off.

its all good - I thought the 28th was a set day also but I am willing to wait. Only thing is - we all need more posts from either break_away or draxas about whats going on and whats going well/bad. Its good to know whats up w/ the production that way we know that it will be worth waiting for. I called 3 times and didnt know there was a phone problem..... i was already looking into a different company because I thought they just didnt answer the phone (and I dont want to buy from a company like that) ....anyway.... I know they are trying their best and things will work out. Is this exhaust going to be formulated for a s/c t/c setup? Or w/o forced induction?

I have already sent payment and can't wait to see and install this exhaust on my tC. Hopefully Draxas finishes this setup before Xmas and starts shipping them out. Now that would be a great Xmas present.

jwaggz82, im not sure what you meen a header for FI or NA. If you meen with the header have a spot for an external wastegate? no it will not.

But it will still work for the TRD s/c as well as an NA car like the rest of the headers made for the tC.

The reason you are having trouble getting ahold of them through email or phone is because the main contact at draxas is out on business, but I assure you as soon as he gets back he will listen to all the voice mails, read all the emails, check the forums, and reply.

Again, please have faith in a very good company

I was talking about if the exhaust was tuned for the supercharger or tuned for Natural Asp. .... Do you know when the contact will be back because I just went to the shop today to get some price quotes and im looking to make my move soon. I just wanna know how things are progressing ...what kinda time delay we are looking at... and a video/dyno of the results.

I didn't see anything on Draxas website saying the exhausts were not yet availible. I was planning on ordering one within the next few days until I ran across this. How long is the wait on the exhaust with S-pipe?

I talked to Draxas. The fitting of the resonators on the exhaust was delayed. It'll be a another week and a half before the resonators are put on. The s-pipes should be in stock in about 2 weeks. Just in time for X-mas.
