So dyno a car, then add the exhaust only and dyno again. If there is a 40hp and 28tq increase then I am buying the rpi exhaust. The burden of proof seems simple enough. Rpi made the offer to prove it, now lets let them do it.

40 hp gain from an exhaust? I think I'm not doubting the quality of your work RPI but that's a little much without a 3rd party review IMO.

Don't you guys visit the other N54 forums? They tried to pull this stunt on the 135i and finally admitted they was running ESS along with the exhaust to get the 40whp increase.

They don't make an E90 version so there was no point in me going over today with my stock E90. I'm not about to let someone make an E92 exhaust fit. If it's not made for the car out of the box I'm not interested end of story.

Since I read they couldn't post anymore I lost interest in the thread... If the glove don't fit... Anyway, hopefully someone (local to RPi) on here gets a hold of their exhaust and does a true independent dyno, and then we can put this baby to bed, so to speak. Until then, this thread should be closed as it serves no purpose anymore...

There are tons of SoCal people viewing this thread and yet no one has gone out to RPI. Continuous bashing of RPI and asking questions really does serve no purpose. Like I mentioned many times, why dont we all just wait until someone gets a chance to go by. Until then dont buy the exhaust if you dont like it, simple as that. If I had a 335i I would already be at RPI with an HD camera in hand. Someone needs to jump on this and get a free dyno and put all this argument to rest.

What a joke. Did they really think they were going to fool people with getting that kind of power with just an addition of an exhaust on a stock car? RPI, here is some advice, as I have a marketing background... Firstly, Honesty goes a lot farther, secondly, the craftsmanship and look appeal of your exhausts seem nice. <--- incase you havnt noticed most people dont expect too much gain from their exhausts, most people on here care about sound and look. I didnt need my degree to figure that out either. We arent 2nd graders here... we know dyno numbers are always fudged with. Its been common practice ever since the internet and forums exisisted. AEM can come in here telling me they made an intake that makes 30HP and I will laugh in their face too. Just sell your products as is. Quit trying to play games, you will get farther instead of having your name spread as a scam artist. As you can tell a lot here, the friendly vendors, you know the ones that dont call out other members and disrespect them, tend to do a lot better, especially the ones that dont lie to us. Write that down. Last edited by Jeff@TopGearSolutions; 02-05-2010 at 11:08 AM.. |

Its basic douchebaggery to blatantly lie about the variables of a dyno test since so many are already parading around with -- for one reason or another -- inaccurate dyno sheets. Its fully-saturated douchebaggery to try to back up the spewed bs with a dyno challenge after denying the reality presented by people that can't be fooled by douchebag sales tactics (and/or true ignorance).
How I company can allow such a toolbox to parade their name to numerous sites is beyond me.
