Official Group Buy Stromung Exhausts (Z4M Only)

DRedman45 · 05-27-2013, 02:12 PM

There has only been one business day, so if course nothing has happened...I'd expect they actually start shipping tomorrow

Steenos · 05-28-2013, 12:06 PM

Hey fellas. Just an update. Don't fear if you haven't been contacted yet. I just got an update from Scott. It seems like they are doing group shipments. So if you're not apart of the first batch you will probably be contacted soon.

elerner61 · 05-28-2013, 12:18 PM

Went for two nice, long drives this weekend. Once the Stromungs are good and hot, the slightly off-throtttle burbling is lots of fun to play with (3rd gear is my favorite!). I've had mine for over a year now.

yousefnjr · 05-28-2013, 01:23 PM

Label still not updated, I'm assuming this isn't going to be delivered by today after all

boo

BMW Maniac · 05-29-2013, 07:23 AM

Received my label on around 23 May....still no update, and I still hope it is tomorrow :-(

BMW Maniac · 05-30-2013, 04:45 AM

Just checked and it is in transit! Delivery date is next Wednesday!

abashoe · 05-30-2013, 08:10 AM

My label still hasn't updated! I sent an email to them yesterday. Hopefully I'll get some sort of new soon.

David70 · 06-01-2013, 08:22 AM

Mine shows UPS Anaheim got it late yesterday and it left there late last night. Supposed to get it by end of business day Thursday the 6th.

They hit the schedule they promised almost to the day (3 weeks was Thursday, it shipped on Friday).

yousefnjr · 06-03-2013, 01:11 PM

Anybody get theirs delivered yet? Tell me I'm not the only one that still hasn't had theirs shipped yet, please..!

MZHammer · 06-03-2013, 01:17 PM

Mine haven't shipped yet.

Got the call earlier. Super pumped

Blind32 · 06-03-2013, 08:48 PM

Spoke with Scott, Mine is on the way. He gave me tracking number! Wednesday should be here! y'all should be coming soon too!

yousefnjr · 06-03-2013, 09:49 PM

Awww yeah, label updated, gonna be here Wednesday too. Our time has come boys!

pelerojo · 06-04-2013, 08:21 PM

I have installed about 5 sets on Z4M's (don't ask) and it can definitely be a DIY job. Best with a floor jack but I have even done it on the garage floor. There are two ways to do it: remove the diffuser in the middle (recommended) or remove the mounting hardware bolted to the car. The mufflers have a great deal of flex in terms of mounting adjustment so you can get a perfect fit. Total job for the first timer moving slow like me is about 1.5 hrs. I have also had the local shop do it on a lift in about 40 min they charged $60 if I recall. Good luck all. Happy to assist anyone in the Charlotte area.

Blind32 · 06-05-2013, 08:29 AM

Mine should arrive today. Do they come with new gaskets to attach cans to the Xpipe? I'm hoping they do so after work I can throw them on and start making some noise!

carr88 · 06-05-2013, 09:53 AM

my credit card was charged on 6/3 but haven't heard anything else.

elerner61 · 06-05-2013, 09:57 AM

Folks, swapping exhaust cans is easy and a perfect DIY for anyone who feels like they have two thumbs. There is no fluids to leak on you and no parts that are going to fall apart and go KABLOOEY

It also gives you a chance to peek at the cool parts underneath and in the back of your car.

Definitely take off the plastic under carriage tray (3 mins) and per the advice Scott had given me, remove the exhaust hangers from the car (socket with long extension) to drop the cans rather than remove the cans from the exhaust hanger. Then it is quick and easy to swap the exhaust hanger to the new cans.

Mount the exhaust hangers back to the car first and then bolt the cans back to the pipes. This way you can adjust the fit of the tips by tightening up the bolts and seeing how it moves (tighten bolts on top..tips move up...)

David70 · 06-05-2013, 10:15 AM

Good write up, maybe not needed but I think worth reading through -

(I probably keep too many "Favorites")

elerner61 · 06-05-2013, 02:15 PM

Yes, that's an excellent write up (that's the one I remember looking at). At his step 10 is where you should stray and remove the hangers from the car, keeping them attached to the exhaust can (much, much easier).
