Tubi Exhaust Manifolds

Anyone on here with a 430 with Tubi exhaust manifolds and stock muffler? I’m looking to go this route and can’t find much out there. Any input or feedback appreciated.

 

Thank you very much for the above! Will do.

 

Thanks very much for the feedback. Ordering Tubis next week. Who did your remap?

 

Which muffler do you recommend with the Tubis?

 

I’m not looking for the high pitched F1 sound. Prefer as close to stock sound as possible, but without the cracked manifold concerns.

 

Tubi exhaust manifolds received. They are a work of art. Will post more once installed.

Thanks very much for the feedback. That’s actually what I’m hoping for. Can’t wait to get them installed.

 

They are supposed to. I should be able to confirm in the next couple of days. 11 of 16 old manifold nuts removed. Not a fun job.

 

Tubi exhaust manifold installation completed a couple days ago. Bolted right in (removing and replacing all the manifold nuts was NOT fun) and no check engine light on start up. Sound is fairly similar to stock. Maybe a little deeper. Haven’t taken for out on the road yet, which I hope to do this weekend. I like the look better than headers with blankets and the price wasn’t bad at $5400 delivered.

I’ve included a pic of the wrench collection I ended up with, all of which helped with manifold nut removal and replacement.

One other note I forgot. I smoke checked my stock manifolds and there were no cracks. My car is a very late 08, but the original manifolds were replaced at three years and 9900 miles. I’ve also used the Capristo exhaust brackets for about four years.

 

Thanks Henry! I didn’t weigh them but my non-calibrated arm says they are a bit lighter. Putting the old manifolds in the attic was a bit harder than carrying the Tubis into the garage.

 

Following up, I put a few miles on this weekend and happy to report no check engine light and sound is similar to stock. A bit deeper/louder/raspier at start up but that’s about it. Pretty happy with the decision.
