I am now starting to make 5sfe race midpipe's !!!!
I have noticed that there are a lot of cat-back systems and some headers for the 5sfe, but there really are no places making the midpipes for our cars. SO....I have designed a complete mandrel bent midpipe exhaust that will drastically improve the exhaust flow and make a nice crisp deep sound at the same time. I have just made the prototype today and was wondering how many people would be interested in having one of these. I can put a pic on here to show the quality and time that i have invested in this project. But someone will have to tell me how to post pics on here cause i have not done that yet!!! smile.gif These midpipes cost me $100 bucks to make and take me about 5 hours to complete.
This offer will include:
-the complete 2.25" mandrel bent midpipe with flex pipe
-double welds on all pipe joints
-new bolts and gasket
...and it will be a direct bolt on application!!!!!

For legal purposes i have to state: this midpipe is for show and off-road use only and i am not held responsible for you using this pipe.

I would like to get $165 for each of these custom midpipes (+) plus whatever the cost for shipping it to you would be...or you can just come and pick it up????

I would like to see how many people are interested ..... So let me know!!
Just trying to help all you guys out and make a few bucks at the same time???
Thanks,
DG

How bout a "3sgte DP to 5sfe catback" mid pipe? This way us 5sfTe'rs dont have to go to the exhaust shop.

I will be sending you my new intercooler soon for you to knock out that piping for me too. Either way I am deff intrested in you making me a mid pipe for the 5sfTe.

Just what is..... it is a flexible pipe that allows the exhaust to flex with the engine so the welds do not break and there is less vibration through the car and all that good stuff!

Thanks. So where is the catalytic converter? Is it upstream (closer to the engine) or downstream (towards the rear of the car) of the midpipe? (I haven't really taken a close look at the exhaust, so I apologize if I seem a bit ignorant...)

If you can get a spare to send him I'm sure he can make you one.

does the exhaust header for the 5sfe have to original O2 bung? And, what is the collector size, is it a 4-2-1, what types of bends are utilized, and what color powedercoating? hehe, if you answered these at celica.net, don't bother.

EDIT: sorry i posted this, i contributed to pres' hijack.

i am guessing shipping on this will be 15 bucks or so ...cause the size/weight ratio of the box and depending on how far the distance is from me to the buyer.

lets say as long as i get 150 for a pick up , or 165 shipped to a normal address to make this easier for you guys to decide if you want it or not.

and whoever is from alaska that emailed me..... is why i say about the extra shipping. its more but ????? i dont know how much to ship there and i will try to get a price for long distance shipping

thanks guys

probably not since i will be swaping out the 5sfe for the 3sgte and will not have anything to go off of to make them any more and test fit them?
i will most likely sell my used 5sfe race midpipe after the swap for a little cheaper since it is used.
this is most likely the last 5sfe race midpipe i will make!

Well, on second thought..... if you are able to get 2 more guys(3 guys total) that want this i will specially make a few more but you will have to wait till i have time and you will all have to advance me the money first so i can restock parts i need to make em. once you send money i need a week to get parts and a few days to make each one!!! then i will mail them all out to whoever wanted them.
you guys are lucky i am in a good mood right now biggrin.gif and i am kinda low on the funds right now too so....... biggrin.gif
let me know guys,
thanks
