    I'd imagine they are a bit like Tiger Airlines.

    Cheap and nasty...

    Talk to NAAB and see what he can do for you.

    Good luck mate

    Very few manufacturers use mandrel bends on extractors. It is a myth that they aren't any good. They are actually better for torque than tuned mandrel bent.

    Tiger are a brand made in Queensland for the Australian distributors of Magna Flow. I have sold a few sets, there was an issue with the O2 sensor fitting on the RHS header being the wrong size and in the wrong spot but that has been rectified. They are an inexpensive alternative to the major brands.

    I have a set of extractors exactly the same as those, they have a Motivator badge welded to them, they cost $35 and work fine.

    Allrighty, i picked up some WildCat extractors and Y peice today.I've done a bit of searching about how to fit, but i didn't come up with too many results.Could some one give me a bit of info about how to fit them?I have a basic idea, obviously unbolt old one, bolt up new ones, but is there anything i should know, or beware of, before i begin?

    Although they are light I think they will work quite well in rocky waters to anchor a medium-large sized trailer boat.

    I'm sensing you don't like the brand.
