what's all the fuss? Doesn't everyone already have the BHR midpipe on their car?

All I know is I find myself driving at that 6000-ish rpm mark where the exhaust sounds sooo good

Sounds like a cat getting ready to pounce

Needless to say once we have the resonators in hand we will be producing them as fast as the funding can get to us and as quickly as our fabricator can produce them.

Hmm, well to be fair to Charles since I already said to take me off the list, im off the list... I dont want to cause him more of a hassle than he already has... I Will be buying this though, BHR ignition is probably gonna be first though

That's the exact order I'm going in... The Gram Lights I just bought used are bent so I'm sending those back and buying the Cobb AP and the BHR Ignition System within a few days...

I never understood why people think its a bitch to put on. before I did it I was intimidated too and then when I did it, it was simple 1/4" rachet FTW, only had to go underneath for one bolt. As long as you remove the intake and battery and box there is plenty of room.

Lining up the tabs is the painful part...

I'll screw it up somehow.

Plus, I'm not too sure how practical it would be for someone who gets to autoX maybe 10 times a year... Depending on severity of the winter.

OMP adapter has nothing to do with AutoX...

4 out of 6 isn't bad. Get my midpipe here and I will be short the OMP. Before you know if I will be a pure BHR car. Anyone wanna send me a stencil to spray the BHR logo on my intercooler?

using this midpipe does it cause your check engine light to come on?

Using ANY midpipe with no cat will cause a CEL.

You can hide it with an AP though. (or electrical tape :P)

Hey Ray, I think I'd like to get on this list if it's not too late?

Probably pretty obvious but I'm at work and don't wanna take the time to search; is the price the same as the BHR website price and there is a bung on the midpipe so I can fit an aftermarket WBO2 sensor correct? Also do you think they will be shipped by September when I plan to install my turbo kit?
I'd like to get away from gutting my cat for the aftermarket WBO2 if I can so I can get some money for the stock functioning cat.
Feel free to PM me with the info. Thanks!

speaking of shipping by September.... are there any updates? last I heard the parts were in and things were started. Maybe i missed something. I'm just planning a car night after work with one of my coworkers and was wondering if I should hold out for the midpipe to arrive or find something else to work on.

Okay thanks Ray... I'll say for sure I'll order and for sure I'll get the bung as I want to move my stock o2 sensor to the GReddy downpipe and put the AEM aftermarket wbo2 sensor in the midpipe.
