ft-86 speedfactory v2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Update: 8/14/13
ft-86 speedfactory replaced the exhaust pictured below no questions asked and sent me out a second exhaust at no charge.
the second exhaust had some small pin hole leaks in the welds but they were quick to sort it out and help come to an agreement on a proper solution.
I have been super impressed with the fact that they are a stand up shop and willing to admit they messed up.
Infact i am placing another order tonight will full confidence that if there is a problem they will handle it for me.

well i got my exhaust today...

less than happy with this.

you cant see all the holes in the weld cause my phone sucks but you get the idea.

maybe i should have just built my own, need a new tig machine but i am so sick of crap welds on stuff i spend good money on.

Send it back for a Tanabe single.

How can this even be acceptable to ship out? Christ thats a disgrace.

mit_peid · 08-06-2013, 08:45 PM

Well I guess I have to state the obvious: FT86 Speedfactory doesn't have the highest quality welds. But I do wish there were more single exit options out there like the V2s.

yeah my thoughts exactly....

3000HP · 08-06-2013, 08:57 PM

that look like it had been welded by a blind man. i could do a better welds with my eye closed.

Ship it back and get another exhaust from another company like perrien.

Sorry man for your loss.

FT-86 SpeedFactory · 08-06-2013, 08:57 PM

My apologies, I can't stand over the person welding all the time and check his work. We will gladly take it back if not up to quality expected. We've been a bit rushed due to demand which is no excuse. We should just push back the delivery of them.

UPS label or Fed Ex can be sent out first thing in the morning to retrieve it if you wish. Not much more I can say.

1st issue we have had with these and I'll be chatting with the welder bright and early tomorrow.

same thing i was thinking. @FT-86 SpeedFactory will take of you. i know first hand, they are great and easy to deal with. they took care of me and i was glad i spent the extra money opposed to going with the cheapest guy..

Shit Luck · 08-06-2013, 10:07 PM

Well I am gonna try this again.
ft-86speedfactory is going to replace it for me.
hopefully the next one is a little better on the weld quality.

i can say with confident that the 2nd time will be the last time.. they will probably personally check it before it ships out. you have no worries my friend.. @FT-86 SpeedFactory pride themselves from customer service thats why their not the cheapest in town and trust me when i say that extra penny is well worth it.. your in good hands @Shit Luck.. update us when you get the replacement
