I'm in for the pre-order. I live in the area so I'd plan on getting it done at RPi. I can stop by whenever and put down pre-order payment.
Just make sure you guys get on this list here. This will be the OFFICIAL list regardless of if you called in, pm or emailed me. I want to keep it fair so that everyone knows whos on or not on the list.

Here is the official weigh in for the systems. Stock (removed part) is 40.1lbs and our GT axle back is 17.8lbs.

Add me to the list. I have a an Audi S4 as well and I love the roar of the V8. Finally I will be able to hear the BMW V8.

Btw, is there any drone in this exhaust? I have a 6 speed so i guess i can work around it by choosing a different gear. The drone is really important to me since my wife will be driving the car and we also have a 3 month old as well.

Nice work on the exhaust

nice! Real Nice!

If I didn't just drop $45k into more shares in my company I would be all over this...as it is, I'll have to wait another quarter or two and see how the divedends pan out.

Thanks RPI, I like that I have another choice. Is it bolt on simple? Any software updates or tunes needed?

mmmmmmm, that rumble is hot!

Installation should take about 15minutes once the car is up. It took me about 2 minutes to cut the stock pipe, 2min to unbolt ONE 13mm nut, 1 minute to take the stock muffler off (it just slips off the hangers) and then 2 minutes to put the new sytem on. Took another 2 minutes to put the new clamp and bolt the exhaust to the existing piping.

Just remember guys, to be fair with those who are on the GB list. ALL sales after the GB will be at full retail. There will be no discounts offered.
