headers and mufflers

[Diokaef]

Corsa's are one of my favorites but for now we are going with Borla, because Borla will be able to produce for us without many delays, Corsa is a complicated company to deal with but I will definitely look at in the near future.

SS welds on a brand new never used X-pipe

[mpower03]

while they may not be pretty... they do the job. afterall its an xpipe, its not going to be seen, its under the car and they work. i have made some crappy welds that look horrible but it is still strong. just my opinion. Good luck with your exhaust, seems like your product will be of high quality.

I CANNOT wait for his section 1 to come out
PLEASE give me a smokin' deal Dio. I'll be your CA emissions tester with the cat inserts, etc.

I'm trying to convince my partner to a GB since we will not be selling this direct after the first run of 20-30 so maybe we can get something on that line for you guys.

I really want to have some pictures up by the end of this month or at list have a set for my car and make some good videos with the different settings/mufflers options to show you guys.

[mfanatic325]

Please do PM me personally. I want to get a discount off your section1 by testing CA emissions for you, etc.

RPI is way to loud to daily drive right?

Id test pipes up in Canada! looking at RE Diablo or stromung

[mpower03]

i think for some rpi maybe too loud from videos i heard. I want to try out the rpi's with my headers. They are the cheapest lightest, and dont lose hp so they are a plus in my books. I think resale would be there if i didnt like them right?

^the rpi's will put a grin on ur face each and every single time IF and ONLY IF u do mostly city driving, or short commutes, daily. however, long distances at highway cruising speeds will more than likely cause premature hearing loss and uncontrollable madness

the rpi's are brutal and uncompromising, and mean serious business. as far as i'm aware, they're indeed the lightest (7.6lbs per side vs oem 22lbs per side), the second most affordable (after the stromung) and produce the most power gains for a simple axle-back set of mufflers (7whp). it is also completely plug and play installation-wise, no bending/welding/acrobatic-contorting required. for about $20, u could buy some self-adhesive sound dampener for the floor of the trunk and this will SIGNIFICANTLY reduce highway drone.

i've since put about 1100 miles on my rpi setup and it's mellowed noticeably and settled into something of a very pronounced, refined tone across the rev range. i still get the awesome sound at startup, idle is almost eerily silent once the mufflers have warmed up, low speed low gears low rev driving carries just the right amount of bass, and spirited drives up through the rev band will tear ur face wide open with a silly ass girly grin as the noise climbs in pitch. it's a distinctive tone tt's reminiscent of high-pitched, flat crankshaft engines.

and worthy of mention, the staggered-sized tips ala porsche 996 are unique to the z4's and look absolutely stunning!

just ordered rpi!
