Unfortunately, no, not at the moment

Based on what? I'm pretty sure I've seen several dynos at around 300.

I really do not know what to say - the stupidity astounds me!

I am glad that you got the information that you were seeking, in regards to our dyno sheet.

For future reference - All US manufactures use the standard measuring system. That means that we measure in inches and feet (ft-lb). Since you are not in the US, you are probably more used to using the metric measuring system. That means millimeters and meters (Nm).

Most people on this forum understand this difference. It would be somewhat patronizing to write out 55 ft-lb of torque at the wheels when I have already clearly stated that I am a US manufacture.

I am sorry that you feel bothered by an abbreviation. Perhaps it is because you are unfamiliar with the term. I highly recommend performing a search on the term - it is used quite frequently.

changing wtq to wftlb wouldnt not change the world but this set up will definitely revolutionize N55 tuning. let's focus on the real stuff guys, hint hint, get the production ready Daniel

Hi Daniel, and apologies to everyone else reading this thread for banging on about it, and yes, I am being anal about it, but I maintain that the use of a meaningless measure (WTQ) is itself meaningless. Unfortunately using terms like this does nothing to increase your credibility - which is something that should be of paramount importance to you. I'm just trying to help you by pointing this out.

With in excess of 20 years experience as a mechanical engineer and a fairly firm grasp of units and measures as a result, it is neither the concept of measuring torque at the wheels not the use of imperial or metric units that troubles me, it is purely the incorrectness and thus the credibility robbing effect of using terminology that is just meaningless. The fact that WTQ is used frequently on the net does not make the term a valid measure.

Units and measures follow international standards for very good reasons. Please don't forget that this forum is also an international forum so it is probably best to use internationally recognised terminology - especially when spruiking your product to an international audience.

The dyno sheets are posted to show the difference - not so much the specific results, since every car is different. Any person can see the difference and expect the same results at the same rate or percentage.

If you were interested in helping then you may have approached this situation differently. Your inquisition for the fine details was presented in a slanderous manner. You made it seem like there was a problem with the information when really there was a misunderstanding on your end. It is apparent that others have no problem understanding the same information. I have no problem clearing things up for individuals but you obviously seem to be seeking flaws. I am not the only one who feels this way. Others have given you feedback on this thread, some who are also international members. Not to mention, you have also stated yourself, "and yes, I am being anal about it".

Lets, then, both agree to disagree. For your purposes, we will say that the product offers an approximate 10% increase in horse power and a 15% increase in torque over stock to the wheels.

Why on earth do you quote 55WTQ?
What does that mean?
What units are you talking about?
Do you mean 55 ft-lb or do you mean 55 Nm?

Wheel torque as you have quoted it is not a unit of measure that has any meaning.

Right-o, so you're saying that you saw an increase of 55 ft-lb then - which actually makes sense.
But I still don't understand why people in "the industry" who should know better perpetuate the use of a fictitious unit - unless of course they don't know any better!

You my friend sound like a complete TOOL. We all know what WTQ is a measure of. Stop being such a picky fuck.

Wish this was for the 335i (((((((

Hi Daniel,

I took a quick look at your product, not really paying attention to details the first time, but now that you brought out this special deal, i've noticed two things that i just want to make sure i understand correctly:

1. The price listed is the DEPOSIT on the pre-order, and not the whole price for the downpipe. (i THOUGHT that just a downpipe that gives this much power at that price was rediculously low, lol)

2. The product comes with a midpipe as well.

I now have two questions:

1: Are the dyno results for the product with both the downpipe and midpipe installed?

2: I was planning on eventually putting on the Hartge quad exhaust system; If i had your downpipe and midpipe installed, would i still be able to put it on the back of my car? (sorry if i dont understand the structure of exhaust systems well, im sure there's something wrong with that question. im new to modding =/ )

Thanks so much =)

Yes, the price listed on the website is just the deposit to claim a spot on the pre-order - this of course applies towards the total cost. Total pricing will depend on the amount of people who participate - if we get 20 people or more, total, the price will drop to $795. It does in fact come with both the 3.5" downpipe and 3" midpipe. This is a high quality product and the savings are ONLY for the holidays.

The dyno posted in the main thread is for the downpipe and midpipe. We are currently making the most power out of any downpipe + exhaust combo. This system bolts directly up to any axle-back, including the stock (used in testing/dynos/videos). You should have no problems installing an aftermarket axle-back, including Hartge.

daniel, does this downpipe + midpipe has any sort of resonator built in?

No, it eliminates your factory resonator. For those looking for a more quiet setup, we may add in a resonator.
