The contact may be Brad at Houston Performance Pipes. Here is my conversation with Janace at Coney's from July '05 when I was looking into THDP's for TTA's...

Hi,
I spoke to you on the phone today (Wed. 7/13) about the 3" Terry Houston Downpipe for the 89 Pont. Turbo TA. Please let me know what you find out as I'm sure several others are interested in this part as well. On
www.turbobuick.com in the "Turbo Trans Am Tech" section of the forums there are others as well interested and wondering if they will be available…see here

Thanks for your help,

Hey Scott,
I just got off the phone with Brad at Houston Performance Pipes.
He told me he would make the D/P for me BUT the price is up to $675.00
The cost of SS has risen so high and there is so much work involved in this
pipe they have discontinued BUT they will do this for us if we are willing to pay the price. I asked him about a price break on 5 or more but he cannot do that. He told me he would need at least a week to get it ready then it’s another 3 days to me. So let’s say 2 weeks to be on the safe side.
Let me know.
Have a great day,
Janace

Janace,
Wow...$675 that's a pretty good jump ($100). Can you find out if that includes the "dump pipe" as well?
Not to try and take away from you (Conley) but do you think they would sell to me direct or are you not really making anything on them ? My original thoughts were to try and contact them and see if they would make me one but could not find a listing or web site for them. If this is not and option would they drop ship to me instead of shipping to you and then to me ?
Thanks so much for you help,
Scott
Scott,
I agree the price is rather steep, I guess its “supply and demand”.
$675.00 is also the price if you go directly to them. Of course I’d rather
you get it from me. [This is what helps keep the doors open and the
tech help alive.]
If you decide you want one I can have it drop shipped directly to you.
Have a great day,
Janace
hth,
