No offense, but it doesn't matter what wheel your buddy chooses.
Start a thread for that, but don't thread-jack this one.

All right my car is back to stock, with the exception of a supersprint x pipe. Can you use my car? I would be able to bring it up anyday of the week, hell even tomorrow.

If you have the supersprint x pipe, how is your car stock? lol. We are testing an exhaust so it has to be the STOCK exhaust. We have someone scheduled for next friday now. Ill let you guys know how it goes.

I wasn't sure if you guys were making a new x-pipe too. Figured I would try since this has been going on for way to long now.

Yeah, I know. Im just bustin your chops. We just have to make sure there are no margin of errors. I rather do something right than not do it at all. Thanks for offering though. We have someone scheduled for next week. If he doesnt show up............Nah, I think he will. This guy seems very responsible.

Keeping my fingers crossed! It's really hard to believe you guys have had such a hard time given your location. We would've given much better support out here in the midwest. West Coast poseurs

to all, did not mean to dissappoint or "threadjack". had i kept the car, it would have been at rpi in a heartbeat.
because the way the deal went down on the 430 was not sure up until this afternoon if the Z4 was part of the transaction, its now sold.
all the best on rpi's endeavours

Good new guys! Erik was here today and let me do several dyno runs. We were able to bet 7-8whp and 5ft/lbs. Thanks for being patient with me guys. Its not all about fabbing up a nice fitting exhaust for us. We really care about he performance FIRST. We will be putting the system into production and they should be ready to ship in weeks to come.

The exhaust sound good.

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?

Awesome news.
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.
