At a set retail price of $800 or lower, I doubt we can do a groupbuy.

Shipping will probably be around $30-40.

It appears from the video that the inside tips are larger than the outer tips? RPI....will you post some pics of the exhaust?

What is the weight of this system?

Yes, to cut down on production costs, we are using the tips from our Porsche 911tt exhaust.

Can't wait to see the dyno graph and some pics

I got a new job starting tomorrow so looks like im set for a group buy as well.

Question what diameter piping is being used and what is the diameter of the stock exhaust?
Just wandering since i want to go custom some time in the future and will probably go with 2.5" all the way.

Dont mind the low end tq difference as I started to dyno at 1k rpm instead of 1500rpm. Thats why you see the line shifted over.

We are going to add a small race resonator on each side to tone down the rasp.

Sorry guys. Sometimes we are able to hit the target retail price and sometimes we cant. The price of labor and materials along with the small quantity of production dictate the cost. If we were importing them from Taiwan or China it would be a different story. BTW, we were supposed to have a Z4 dropped off to us so we can start the production run. The person never showed up so the offer is good anyone who can leave us with their car for about 1 week and allow us to put about 200 miles on the car. We will compensate by giving you the exhaust free of charge.

I think the price is a bargain! Are there anymore details about the exhaust system you can give us at this point?

We are still waiting for a volunteer car that we can use for about 1 week while we have the jigs made.

If only you could use a car on the East Coast. Mine stays parked most of the week anyway.

Just use my car....something tells me the headers are not gonna through off the fitment...

Don't think Eloy can use your car since you have a Stromung exhaust.

I was talking with him this weekend, and I think we're going to set up a time for me to come over from Phoenix and let them use my car.

Please do it.

I like what I've seen of his exhaust.

Help him put it into production.

Feel free to give Eloy a call, but what I was told was that he wants someone with a stock exhaust so he can go off all the mounting points/brackets from the stock setup. If he bases those off your Stromung exhaust, any incorrect measurements by them would be repeated by him.

If yours will work, cool.
Otherwise I'll talk with him by the end of the week and set a day to come by.

[Haretakis]

Go for it. The problem wasn't the mufflers, I can bring my stock ones along. Eloy said the headers may throw off fitment... If he changes his mind my car can be there the same day he agrees.

I ran at the track today...I did very well but I wish my car sounded meaner.....any updates???

[nmulax]

Just spoke with RPI.
They're waiting on some needed parts, and they're knocking out an exhaust for the E46 M3 first. Once they're ready, my car'll be on it's way to their shop.

Cool.

I'll have to wait till September to use these on the track, because in AZ it's about to get too hot for track season...

Ah ok. I think I saw you. Sorry that I didnt introduce myself.

[laidback]

Let's finish this one...

Talked to Eloy this week and I or i'll let someone drop off the my Z4MC to Eloy on Monday a.m and he'll make the final process so we can have the exhaust asap....I apologize for not following up with this thread as i got really busy as of late with other projects and events ...if time will allow me more mods will be in the works
