No company has given us so many muffler choices; Components are looking awesome!

I am still blown away by the time and effort you are putting in to such a small niche. Normally we have very few if any items to choose from when it comes to aftermarket parts. Now we have the opportunity to completley customize our entire exhaust system This must be what it feels like to own an M3

replacing the cats with some resonators should be good for 20rwhp on the vt2

@Diokaef: What is the difference between these different mufflers?

Can you give us a little bit more info on the 3 mufflers? i'm particularily interested in information about number 3 on the right (last pair), i feel that this one should be the loudest i presume?

All 3 mufflers are similar in performance.

The Borla is the quiet one. (street)
The middle muffler is the best sound one in my opinion. (Sport)
The small muffler that is on the right on the picture is definitely the loudest one. (race)

I knew it, the smaller the resonator chamber the less air is cooling down, the faster it can go out, the louder the sound.


When are we going to have a pricing? i'm dying right here <.<

The small mufflers are not resonated at all, they use turbine technology.

We should have prices within a week or two.

I had this thought (about the M3) when I scrolled through a second time and fully took in just how many different configurations we could have!

I'm simply blown away. The M3 comparison--yes--this, and a lot more. The quality, thought, execution...like I said, blown away.

Gotta think through how I want to piece this baby together. There are choices to make here! But damn, I love that. I never thought we'd "have" choices to make like this.

So now we have all done, everything is going to jethot next week.

Some of this parts are not 100% equal but are fully functional, some minor cosmetics still need to be addressed before the production, we made four system for testing purpose as of right now and we will let them go for cheaper then GB prices due to minor cosmetics differences, none of this differences will be noticed after install on the car. When we start production this differences will not be there (see muffler hangers on picture above).

We believe we can have the GB started within two weeks but we can't promise a large number of system for the GB. so be prepared for a limited number of full systems.
