Do they still make T1R TP's? Waiting 5mos for mine (from R&D Motorsports)!
Was wondering if anyone has been able to buy a new 2.5" T1R resonated test pipe from any vendors. Or is it just the shitty vendor I ordered from?
Dave at Randdmotorsports one week says he 'll have them next week and the following week tells me there 's still backordered. This has been going on for over 5 months now! I decided not to contact him the entire month of December & January to see if he does anything on his own. Nothing. He 's just holding on to my money while I got nothing in my hands. Getting really tired of it.
Why would AJR (or whoever actually makes them) stop making them for so long but still make the T1R exhausts? It doesn't make sense. Sounds to me like Dave might want to get an order of 20 or more before he actually places the order so he can get a better volume discount on them.
Too bad I did a search after I ordered it and saw that dozens of people have been waiting for stuff from R&D for a year now or waiting for a refund. That's just rediculous. An honest vendor would tell people right from the start that the part is not in stock and he doesn't know when he 'll get it but to check back with him after a certain time or take their number down and call them when he has it. Instead he tells people he 'll have the parts in a week or two and lets them hanging for months while taking everyone's money and probably waiting to get enough orders from the customers so he can then place his order. I know, I had a computer parts business for 11yrs but I didn't pull this crap. Oh well live and learn.

Just contact A&J directly. I bought one for a friend about two months ago and they had just received a shipment at that time. I have one as well.

Harry - Please recall when you did order, you were told that they were on BO - it was no secret. The T1R stuff is made in small quantites and we have little control over when it comes in or in what amount.
With that said, I have some and I'll get one out to you asap with your donut gasket ON THE HOUSE (email sent regarding this)
It's no secret I had my head up my a$$ last year and we had problems. Past is the past, though, and I am doing what I can to do things the right way and focus on the customer.
Have a great weekend - what's left of it.
