There is a large bore exhaust for the T350, Rob, availale from the factory. Alternatively, Robertm had a sports exhaust for the Tamora, made up by JP exhausts in Macclesfield. I'm sure they would sort something out. Have a listen to mine on Thursday!

Pretty sure Tim "top bloke" Lamont at ACT had a tamora sports box on show at Mania .. might be worth getting on the blower to him or mailing through his 2sheds profile? Tim gets alot of stuff made for him and I for one would rather buy from him than by-pass him and go direct to the manufacturer, if someone's gone to the trouble of getting original units made I think we should support them by buying from them .. if you get my drift.

Nubbin's (ex robetm's) Tamora's exhaust was actually from ACT, it just happens to be made by JP Exhausts in Macclesfield......

I had a stainless sports exhaust off Tim for the Tamora and he's been tremendously helpful. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him to anyone.

Received car back from service yesterday.. enquired for sports exhaust... The dealer said that they've got a sports exhaust for the T350 which should fit the Tamora as well! Or just wait until early next year for the Red Rose conversion to go on both these cars as an upgrade which would have an all new system from TVR installed..

Unfortunately the T350 has a different rear box design to the Tamora, so we would need an original system to copy but am looking into this,
BTW prices for these exhausts are set by ACT & JP so it doesn't make any financial difference who you purchase from, we work together.

I spoke to big Dom at TVR Power on Saturday - they're developing some T350 upgrades, similar to the performance upgrade orignially offered by the Factory for T350s. Tuscan S brakes, big-bore free-flow exhaust (with or without cats), ported head, octane button, and chipped. Available as a package or separately. Not released yet but I suggest you keep your eyes out.
