TRD Sparks and McGeorgeParts have yet to contact us about becoming a delear for our products. All they need to do is send us an email or give us a phone call and we can work something out. If you want them to begin offering our parts, shoot them an email and encourage them to contact us.

As far as TCTunerz.com goes. If they provide poor customer service, that will reflect negatively on them. The quality of our parts will speak for itself. It will be the responsibility of each distributor to offer excellent service, or else customers will go to those distributors that do provide good service.

This is the first I have heard about TC Tunerz having a bad rep though.

The first three threads you linked were started by the same person over the same issue that eventually got resolved. The last one apparently was the fault of the person not tCTunerz because he didn't complete the order right and they had no record of it.

I personally ordered Randode's Cold Cathode's from tCTunerz and received excellent service. But from that experience it seems tCTunerz just acted as a gateway to the seller since Randy shipped the lights himself not tCTunerz. So how many products do tCTunerz actually ship direct?

 

^^^ those were just the first threads I found bc they were ordered by date, but I personally have seen countless threads about their sub standard practices. PM Ikonxone for mor info on their shady pracitices....

 

Thanks for keeping your reply civil. I respect that.

I'm sure IkonXone has great reasons but that seems to be the only case where the problem wasn't resolved. Some businesses are slow, some have crappy response times on emails but other than IkonXone, is there anyone else who was cheated out of money?

I mean all businesses get bad reviews from customers from time to time, but overall those seem to make up a small percentage of overall service. I'm not trying to start a war here but whenever tcTunerz is mentioned, all that is brought up is IkonXone and what happened to him a long time ago between him and Quick. Besides in these days, I prefer to handle things with lawyers and banks than by calling for a public ban on a message board because they took extra time to ship me a product.

 

tc tunerz isn't bad at all, I ordered a few things from them and it came to my house in less then a week.

 

how much hp gains this exhaust system? (by itself)

 

does the stainless steel exhaust that creative compacts it is the Draxas exhaust system?

 

For the second question. Are you asking if CreativeCompact's exhaust system is Draxa's system? Then no. They are two different companies with two different products.

 

so... where can i get the draxas exhaust system?

 

Soon as they are available you can purchase via our site @ www.tCtunerZ.com



Agreed!

Right now all of our products are drop shipped until our new warehouse is completed and we have moved in. The day we receive orders, customer details are simultaneously email to our distributors to process and ship when in stock.

Thanks for the kind remarks, that’s what’s needed now versus everyone bringing up old threads.

 

All Draxas products will be available at http://www.RacingSolution.com as well

 

Revilo,

To answer your question. Our exhaust gained about 5 HP at the wheels... We Are now choosing to include a new S-Pipe as part of the kit which will increase power more. We will dyno the tC again once we have the new S-Pipe in place.

Also, as long as a particular company continues to claim their kit gains 12whp, then our numbers will look low.

Nikolas

 

ouch.

 

That's before the s-pipe. It should improve the numbers once they get the new dyno up.

 

I don't know if it really will, though. When I was under my car doing the header I took the liberty to look at the s pipe and mine didn't have any crinkles in it and looked quite large, so I honestly don't see any gains coming from a new s pipe. I also called a reputable exhaust shop (Andy's muffler & racing, everyone in gwinnett gets their exhaust done here) and asked if they thought a new s pipe would improve the performance, and they said probably not.

 

well at the beginning of the spipe it looks double walled but all the way through i beleive the s-pipe is 2 and an eighth(sp?) from there there it is pretty close to 2 and a half as it goes in to the resonator and from there on out it shrinks again.. so its possible

 

We'll have to wait and see what the new dyno numbers will be once we get the new S-Pipe installed. From our measurements, the S-Pipe narrows down to around 2" or so, inside diameter of course. Granted, the stock exhaust manifold is VERY restrictive.

Also, Draxas is becoming a Gold Sponsor of Scion Life, so now I dont have to feel guilty when I talk about our products here on the message boards. Hopefully the rotating banner ad will get us a little more exposure in the Scion community.

Does anyone know what the whp gains have been from the various race headers out there? On our 2.3L Focus we picked up 12whp from a 4-1 race header..... So if the Scion's 2.4L engine is picking up much less than that, then it must be due to the S-Pipe.. (This Focus also had a 2.5" exhaust installed and CAI)

Nikolas

 

the few headers out for the tc are getting about 8-10whp. (about the same for torque)

 

how many hp are expected after installed the s-pipe?
