I had mine made bespoke at about the same price as I was quoted from the mainstream companies. Beautiful job and better flow than the originals too. Motorwize in Burton on Trent.

Tim's stuff (ACT) is good and I use it. The problem with bespoke is surely you need to leave the car with them to ensure a proper fit, which may not always be convenient.

Hi Andrew

I happened accros these guys recently on the web, and they seem to manufacture slim line manifolds, and seem to know their TVRs, perhaps worth a call?

Hi Andrew

I recently bought a set of manifolds and system for the SX from Tim (ACT) and can say the fit of the JP system is great and the sound! well i'll let you be a judge of that at next years BBWF.

Give Tim a call im sure he'll be able to help.

Hi Wyn
I would after nine months of ownership like to say yes but for a fuelling issue its not quite there, i hope to resolve this by the end of next week.

I bought the sx in january and only managed to cover 45 miles in her before the clutch said good bye so to say im a little frustrated is an under statement,she's had a lot of work done in that time so i would like to get the engine run in before she goes of to the trimmers.

I will definitely make up for all the time with out the sx next year.

Just ordered from ACT - Tim knows his stuff after I shared my concerns with the o/s fitment.
