Developing products to be sold to the masses takes time (if its a good company). Would hate to have a bunch of exhausts sold only to have to make a revision down the road leaving a bunch of pissed off customers.

Which I am fine with, and have so far been rewarded with a discount.

It just becomes tough on one of the three principles, time, which is always the hardest one for the customer to cope with.

Yes, but once everyone has them on their cars the wait will have been worth it.

I know Mike, just giving you a hard time.

Have there been any updates on when the Xpipe will be released? I'd love to get my hands on one.

Just to clarify, you cannot buy just the x-pipe. they will not be sold separately.

No, we tested two different configurations so we could pick the most effective one as far as sound quality and power goes. The X-Pipe configuration will be the only configuration available for the exhaust.

The X-pipe configuration sounded MUCH better than the other version, if the 2 youtube videos are the 2 configurations we're talking about.

First group of exhaust have arrived at Berk and are having final adjustments made and shipped in order of the first two group buys. First group of exhaust will fulfill group buy 1 & some of group buy 2. I believe the next shipment will finish the second group buy orders and they will have extras to start selling. Not 100% sure when the second shipment is arriving.

Any idea of how much those extras will cost those of us who didn't jump with the group buy?

I think they planned to sell the exhaust for $1300-1400...thats the common going rate for CBE's in a non-group buy. Right now, I think they're waiting on the accolades from happy customers. Dont blame them. Im sure I'll be right in front posting up my videos.

I plan to post a vid with stock cats. If it ever stops snowing.

hopefully i'll have my modified headers done shortly after my exhaust arrives, so i might try to manage a video of that. got to go buy the welder today and finish the fixture brackets then get the bends and tube in and weld the new pipes in. then bring the car home and put all my parts on and run over to the dyno.
