gee, this has been going on for a while. A little disappointing on Riss' part...

I was thinking of getting their downpipe for my JCW...

I believe they should be shipping this week. They still have my car in their shop awaiting the install of parts after the next production run (remember my car was the design mule and had all the design parts installed). The large production run is taking longer than they anticipated.

Exhaust

Seems like you would want to contact Way Motor Works for one of the Stromung systems he has in stock. I've seen them and they're impressive. OE fitment too.

^^^^ Seriously though, has anyone received anything from Riss Racing, other than excuses? I'm not bashing these guys, but I'd like to know if anyone has received any products form Riss Racing. It's killing me each and every week that goes by.

Hey guys,

We are working very hard on getting these systems shipped out. We are at the tail end and have reached the shipping stage of the R56 exhausts. We want to make sure we don't rush orders out just so you get them a day quicker. When this usually causes mistakes. We have all waited this long and we really appreciate you all standing by us. We know you want your exhausts, and you wanted them yesterday! We want the same thing! Most of the exhausts will be shipping out this week. The exhasuts will be shipping in the order they were placed.

In regards to the downpipes pretty much all the orders have been shipped with the exception of a couple. These last couple of DPs will be going out with the exhausts...

We are sorry for the delay, but we are happy with the result of the products! Please understand this was an entire product line built for the R56 all at once. There were some things out of our control, and we will have everything sorted out for the future. Once again we appreciate your business, and contiuned support. I am looking forward to your responses! Thank you!

PS sorry I have not responded to this post. I did not know it was here. Thank you Kevin for informing me, and thank you Kevin for letting us use your car for so long to make this product line!

Hey if you're watching this thread, I've been sending emails & PM's and would like to get some solution worked out with my catted & coated downpipe, even if it's just the o2 sim that was promised when we first ordered our pipes.

Does anyone know if they are planning on making the exhaust in the coated black?

Let's get the first set out before we start asking them to consider other options.

They will coat anything. I've seen black mufflers and tips in the shop.
I spoke with them today and a shipment of exhausts are being boxed today.

I'll be retrieving my car from them Monday with all their parts installed (DP, exhaust, catch can, BOV).

They simply had delays in coating, polishing and other finishing of the parts - which is why they still had my car - the pieces were not ready until today.
