My dyno will be before and after with downpipes only, not going to do a baseline. waste of money.
We will have stock vs full lsd on your car
my car will be:

Catless downpipes and LSD vs Catless Downpipes and stock system.
So what's the word on when they are being shipped? Or does this mean y'all already received yours!? Originally I was told they would be delivered first week of June, however that was over a month ago so not sure on updates/holdups. I have called 2 times in the past 2 weeks trying to get info on it and both times was told I would get a call later in the day but still haven't gotten one call. I understand if things have taken longer than expected due to unforeseen circumstances but I feel like if that's the case they should at least try to get back to me and let me know what's going on. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Ive never had problems getting ahold of him.

Just like wic and I stated: Wick gets his this Friday 2011-13 models, I go in Tuesday to get mine, make sure the Actual system (not prototype) is perfect, then im sure all who placed orders will get theirs.

I wasn't really pushing them for answers so that's probably the reason for the unreturned calls. Hopefully this means they will ship out next week! Can't wait to see the results for the cars dyno's! Thanks

Beautiful system. Will the tailpipes fit correctly (centered) if an M5 diffuser is used?

Yes got it put on yesterday.

Sounds really good. all thats left is getting the correct valve controller, the one they put on isnt correct, keeps the butterfly open at all times, They ordered the new valve controller and after that everything will be 100%

So do you know about what the difference in noise level is, or if there is a tone change from when they are open vs closed?

I wouldnt know what the difference is, because its not closed now.
But i'd imagine it would be quieter?

If your asking the noise level now, it sounds good, sounds like a european car with an exhaust.


And its making more power, so its a win win

Ahh gotcha. I was thinking you had heard it without the valve control piece attached at all which would leave them closed until over 3k rpm. Can't wait to hear it in person when my system arrives!

Yes sounds good man. Its a good loud, and slight drone. But thats with the valves opened which is normal.
With the valves working properly should be much better.. I cant wait, keep driving my car around just to hear it lol

Thanks for the pics!!! The pipes look great.

One question, are the tips aligned yet? The gap between the diffuser and the tips is quite significant.
