Yes, Tubi tips will fit on a 70mm exhaust. However, it ain't easy. I had Tubi tips on my custom 3 inch exhaust. Fast Intentions cut the back of the tips in order to make them fit. It looked awesome!!! Call Fast Intentions in Northridge, CA.

Regards,

Craig

It seems our friends at Fabspeed also make these for $700, are they as large as the TUBI ones, any pics on a 996 TT please ?

Those look great!

May I ask what technique you used to polish them?

They arrived with the internal finish painted black.

1. paint stripper applied.
2. polished by hand with steel wool.
3. polished by hand with metal polish paste.

I spoke with Stef (Europipe) afterwards. Stef mentioned he could have supplied them as a polished finished if requested.

I want to know if the fabspeed tips fit 70mm and if they need to be cut lengthwise because they will potentially stick out too far with an EP exhaust.

Richard are you going to put these tips on a stock exhaust, or do you have an EP as well?
