Looks like we make 10 all on list stay in.

I see people here are installing headers and want a milder exhaust. This is exactly what I am doing. The most quiet exhaust is supersprint powerloop. The report is a bit louder than stock, but at over 2k is not worth $$$. It is 2.5 times more for ss powerloop than Stromung. I heard these exhaust live when I went to HC2008. It has a low tone and not very loud.

wss4 - please respond with your email address and I will get in touch with you. Thx

Sorry to do this to you guys, but I won't be staying in given the recent developments. I agree with the opinions of a few others that Stromung's attitude towards prospective customers has left me feeling even more tentative about purchasing their products, although I give you huge props for trying so hard on our behalf. Good luck, guys. If I end up being the 10th person, I may reconsider, but for the moment I'm out.

Two people have recently dropped out, and I haven't heard back from "wss4" yet. Today is the extended deadline and we are left with 5 orders now. I don't think extending the deadline another week will help us get the 5 additional orders needed considering the pathetic turnout in the last 2.5 weeks. I'm leaning towards cancelling the group buy, but will see what Stromung can do with our current numbers.

A shame. Oh well. Remus looking better and better to me.

Something in me just rebels at the thought of paying full price for anything....

45ACP, seriously thanks dude for all your efforts. I really appreciate the leg work and frustration trying to put this group buy together. I hope you guys still get a good deal, and if this does fall through, please don't get too dishearten about it. You are an asset to our community.

Although we didn't hit our goal of 10 orders, Stromung says they can "definitely work something out" with those of us still interested. He wants to discuss over the phone on Monday so I'll keep you guys posted next week.

LATEST UPDATE

The new group buy price is $775 + shipping for 7 minimum orders (counting sho-one as the straggler). This is cheaper than the $783 price for 10 minimum orders we were quoted about a week ago!!! Lead time is still 4 weeks out after payments are received. Stromung will call each of you to gather credit card information. Credit cards won't be billed until the exhausts are ready to ship. FWIW, the owner seemed very pleasant and friendly to speak with so I'm looking forward to throwing some business his way in return for a quality product at a discounted price.

Please confirm if you are still participating in the group buy.

Sigh. This is sad. I don't have unlimited patience either. If this doesnt get wrapped up soon, real soon, I'll go in a different direction as well. Still in for now, but not forever.
