Some of you may know me some may not But to clear the Air I am Tim Tynan, the builder of the TNT pipe.
Recently I have been getting beat up about making more of the TNT pipe.
Actually for the Past 3 yrs been asked to build more.
I have put some work into this and have all but pulled the trigger on building more. The draw back is the new pipes will be stamped.
The big question is what pipe to build? I have looked at most the forums and the pictures and see every version ever made and almost no one notice there different.
If you want to see three versions, there is a tnt chamber for sale for 500 on this forum that has been for sale for couple yrs looks like, that is one of the original limited pipes that the bracket was moved to the mag cover.
the polished pipe is a first gen superstock chamber and the coated pipe is a stroker chamber. None are the Gen 4 superstock chamber that is the best pipe for racing. The superstock chamber is smoother power and revs higher then all the other pipes. Still has great low end but its not violent hit like the limited or stroker chambers had.
So the drama is what pipe to build?
Here is our options, if i build the tooling for a limited, we can have both the stroker and the limited pipe, the difference would just be 10mm shorter center section and slightly shorter headpipe.
The superstock chamber has all different cone tapers and will not work for crap made longer as to replicate the limited pipe length, there for it would be one pipe to serve all needs.
The pipes will be sold by two dealers only, Blowsion and Watcon.
Chambers to complete systems.
If you all wonder why pipes are so expensive here is a break down for you.
Tooling is 5,000.00 then you have a setup charge and price per parts.
so to build 25 pipes I am looking at a 10k investment plus my time.
There are less then 200 total tnt pipes ever made, and 30% of them went over seas.
We have to make 100 pipes to make them affordable, with todays market I dont see 100 pipes selling in less then 2yrs.
Plan on setting up a tnt pipe test in antioch CA, where you can install a tnt chamber on your boat and have support by the pipe maker to make sure its installed and tuned properly and see if you like the pipe.
The date of this is TBA, but look for it after WF.
We will have two pipes available, superstock and limited.
There will also be a second pipe test done in central coast of OREGON and same support.
Please keep in mind, we will not have time in a day to install a headpipe and maniforld, so all who plan on testing will need those items installed and there boat ready to go exp for chamber.
TNT pipe uses the stock exhaust hose from water box to OEM exhaust system,
