You could also try David Gerald or Peninsular. Best to get mild steel ones if you can as they're a bit cheaper (bearing in mind that the downpipes are fairly sacrificial), and the steel should be thicker, therefore harder-wearing.

I couldn't see them listed on the ACT site but I can get them made for you at a cost of approx £150ish.

I'll need your old ones as a pattern to ensure an exact match to your system and the spec and grade of stn st will be high.

£150, that's pretty high Kevin. Just for the down pipes, I'm sure they were around £50 from ACT.

Or do you mean for the manifolds?

Sorry, yes that's the whole lot, manifold and downpipes and the system is about the same.

So, approx £300 for everything.

I'll be fitting mine soon.

Hi Bob,

Link to ACT exhaust page: - www.actproducts.co.uk/silencing.php

[WildfireS3]

Yep, ACT do all manner of goodies for the TVRS, mainly the RV8s, but they do cater for the V6s more than most.

You can contact Tim Lamont who runs ACT via his email or his PH profile which is 2shed.

I've bought the Down Pipes, Full Exhaust system n( a custom might I add), magnecore leads and some Silicone hoses from them. All great stuff.

Tried ACT they said they only supply full systems @ £379.00+ the dreaded vat pointless buying the lot when the main part is ok.so its David Gerald then eh!!gratefull for any other sources if you have them,its all a bit of a learning proccess at the moment!!cheers Bob

try PENINSULAR TVR
got mine from there as mentioned earlier

Sorry to enter this one a bit late. I got mild steel downpipes for my S1 from David Gerald for just shy of £50.00. They are different from the later 2.9 engines.

I hope this helps.
