I'd love some angle tips like the factory ones.. would look so nice!

par4bmw · 05-11-2009, 03:04 PM

I am with those wanting angled tips.

M.Bonanni · 05-11-2009, 03:23 PM

Haven't heard anything from them since the last update. I am sure they have been busy working on it. As of right now, I am supposed to be picking the car up on Thursday so I think they are shooting to have multiple configurations mocked up and dyno tested by then.

Hi guys, we're busy at work on DDM's car.

FYI on the tips, the tips will be angle cut, dual wall.

Yay! Great news! Rejoice!

Can I please make one suggestion....Look at the design of the rear bumper and look at the stock tips...They are angle cut BUT they're not a perfect circle...Please try and make a bigger version of the stock tip...

Oval-ish, dual-wall, and angle cut...that would really fill in the exhaust cut outs in the bumper and look fantastic!

You're right—they're oval from the factory. Unless, you bought the NISMO exhaust, which is round.

Correct, but from a side profile even the nismo isnt that great looking...

Its so much cleaner from the side when you have some sort of tapered design to the tip...

I like the way my Nismo exhaust tips look from the back, I think the round looks great, but if they did have a slight angle cut, that would be good too.
I think the Factory Nismo car coming out this summer has the round with the angle cut.

The nismo and stillen are nearly identical...and the circle, while looking from directly behind looks great, it looks a little to big and goofy from a side profile. (for some reason I coulda sworn the nismo car is still using round non-slant tips)

Now if they go tapered/slant and its still a round design then technically from the back you wont tell the different until you see it from the side which at that time it should then look even better!

If this exhaust sounds good, makes 14+ whp, and does not have tips that stick far out, THEN I WILL PURCHASE IT ASAP.

Please BERK make this a good one!

M.Bonanni · 05-11-2009, 04:25 PM

You guys are demanding lol...

semtex · 05-12-2009, 07:27 AM

It needs to make at least +20whp before I'll even consider it. But I already have a CBE, so my perspective is a little different than it'd be if I still just had the stock exhaust.

miguez · 05-12-2009, 08:00 AM

semtex, Stillen claims on their website that their CBE yields 18 whp, yet others claimed 37 on the GTMotorsport's exhaust thread. Did you dyno with just the CBE to know the difference between that and stock?

semtex · 05-12-2009, 08:03 AM

37?? Who claimed 37?? Where is this?
