Thread: Tubi Muffler Exhaust Failure!!! (quality issue???)

Started 2 months ago by angldrkns9
Guys, this sucks. I recommended Tubis to all my friends because I loved the sound of them and talk about bad luck, my own set failed I thought the quality of Tubi was suppose to be pretty damn good! how could this happen? Spiderweb cracks showed up about 6 months ago when Paul at Protosport/Protomotive was servicing the car. He welded the cracks for me the ...

Sure looks/sounds like moisture has gotten in there and had it's way with things. Over the course of 2 years its hard to say... Very sorry about the headache you're left with.

Talk about a joke of a response...... I got a call 15 minutes after sending Tubi USA and Tubi Italy an email from the head of Tubi USA... he says he is VERY unhappy with the video i posted and his explaination is the earlier Tubi mufflers used thinner walls to minimize weight and the issue has been resolved now.... he cannot warranty them BUT he can offer me replacements at his cost.... ...

Issue has been resolved now = we had this happen to others, know about it, and fixed it in NEW mufflers..... The metal does look pretty embrittled there on the ends. Stainless right?

Really sorry for your headache. I was really sold on Europipe from the first time I spoke with Stef there. The quality is #1 and they are 100% behind their product. Had my first set on two different TT coupes over 4 years and it looked new when I sold the car. The one I have now still looks like jewelery. Expensive but worth the peace of mind. Tubi should do you better than "their" cost. ...

so I got off the phone with Jesse at Champion Motorsport and it seems the thing that got to them worried was the video on youtube of the Tubi Muffler Failing.. (since they are unaware of this post on 6speed).. so the agreement we reached was he will replace my mufflers for free BUT i need to pay the shipping from Italty to the US (since he doesn't have the one for my car in stock) and I need to pay the shipping from FL to NY.. i suspect...

What a shame. I really can't believe that they wont come through some way to make this right. Too many P car owners use this site to make sound product decisions. Good luck.
