Ya but your not going to get it til spring anyway, might as well pay the group buy price now and then when spring comes around you'll have other parts to worry about

We actually include spacers to reuse the under tray on the car for extra clearance. I will get some more pictures of the installed exhaust tomorrow for you guys. Obviously the under tray doesn't go all the way underneath the vehicle so we shall figure it out for you.

If they are serious about the vert option then we will have at least 3 potential buyers!

I need a vert to test fit it on. Anyone have any pictures of the underside of a 135 vert and a 135 coupe? If I can get some info and it seems close enough I might be able to make some one a good deal if they want to be a guinea pig. Unfortunately I dont see that many opportunities in Oregon (Cold/Rainy NW) to have a vert come in, but either way I am still trying for you guys.

I am sure you will find willing vert volunteers.

I think there might have been someone earlier in this thread that was willing to be a test fit.

Why is this so expensive. Twice as much as the other guys. I don't get it. Heck there is half the material used than in others.

Please tell me why this system is worth this. I may be interested.

-Lightweight
-Sounds bad ass

It's all about weight. The sound adds icing on the cake. Not to mention on the tail heavy vert it helps a wee bit.

It's not twice as much. This is a full dp back exhaust, not just an axle back. If you price out an axle back and catless mids you'll be in the same range, if not more expensive.

Correct! I just spent about $1500 on Berk Axle back and resonated mid pipes.

Kirk can't we just get this started without the fifth person? I mean with your turbo kit coming along, which I'm quite excited for I might add, you'll have to make these anyways. And let's be honest, would just one additional payment make any difference to you guys?
