LiteSpeed Exhaust

Hey guys. I came across this company in SoCal. I am seriously thinking about buying this for my car. I had a quick conversation with them and they do offer two levels of a group buy discount. 2-4 and 5 units plus. Looking at about 20% off. Here is the description they provided. (NO DRONE, see below)



This full cat back exhaust features dual 2.5 inch piping, twin resonators to reduce drone, and beautiful polished quad tips! and has be dyno tested to produce an increase of 10 horse power and 20 foot pounds of torque over stock! It will require your stock bumper cut outs to be trimmed to fit the quad tips, or an aftermarket diffuser. But the trim job is easy, and well worth it, as the look will transform your 535, giving it more of a M5 look! The sound of this system is second to none, it is deep and exotic, but with no drone. Fits 2010 and up BMW 535

Litespeed Racing is a new brand in the automotive performance industry, but at only 2 years old we are already making an impact! Litespeed Racing has worked closely with the professional drift team of Michael Essa, and GSR Autosports to help develop this system. You may seen knock-offs of this exact same system here on EBAY, but Litespeed Racing designed, developed and tested it in Los Angeles CA. This system is here in LA, and ready to ship, today!!

It's a great exhaust. A lot of companies offer axle back not a full catback exhaust with an amazing sound. They do offer both full titanium and full stainless steel. Also have options with resonators and tips. Great option for exhaust and it a quad exhaust.

I thought there would be a great deal of interest on this. I am starting to feel that it's posted in the wrong spot.

I'd be interested if it weren't too loud and if the price is right.

Update. All prices that were quoted were for the Stainless Steel full Cat Back with Titanium tips unless otherwise specified. The full titanium is much more expensive.

if this a group buy, what's the reason for PMing the price. I want to know the price also, and so does everyone else.

It sound like the wholeseller trying to unload some merchandise.

?? Wholesaler? You are waaaaay off. There is three different tiered pricing depending on the number of people who want to place the order. When it comes to buying you are going to pay the company directly and no one else. Done make accusations due to curiosity. List price is $2900 & $1295 titanium & SS respectively. Now based on how many are in for the system discounts are being offered on a tiered system depending on those requiring shipping or local pick up.

Furthermore the discounted price starts at $200 off on SS all the way up to $450 off list and on Titanium from $400 off all the way up to $950 off list.

Now based on the level of interest on each it will make a difference on what we end up with. If I post that the price is only $200 when we can actually get it for $400 off that will affect the demand and what we all end up paying to the manufacturer.

I hope you find this satisfactory to your misguided opinion.

Now, was that so hard. You have explained it perfectly. We now know where we stand and what to expect.

Thank you

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-535-full...19ebe9&vxp=mtr

Here is the listing if anyone is interested in sending the seller an offer. FYI, price was $950 or best offer two weeks ago.
This is the link http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-535-full...p2047675.l2557

To be honest, I reached out to him and he sent me a pretty good offer. He's looking for someone to post up vids so if someone wants one at a good price, just contact him.

I'm interested in this group buy also but would like to hear some sample video clips of cabin noise to confirm No Drone and dyno results. Hopefully they offer other variation of tips.

thanks

You might want to wait until I install mine in the next week or two. I have no plans to Dyno the car so I couldn't help there.

I got black tips. On the diffuser I am still deciding. OEM M5 swap (some fitment issues reported) aftermarket black or Carbon Fiber. Here is what I found on eBay. http://bit.ly/16Mn3QJ
Or this in CF

Good to know! Do you mind me asking how much was a diffuser, and where did you get it? Thanks
