1. Riss Racing Downpipe Back Exhaust system (resonated)

2. Riss Racing R56 Catless Downpipes

The sound quality is really great. We're really happy with the full system and the sound it produces. You can hear the turbos spool and definitely feel the car move!

Haven't been on here in awhile and was just wondering if there are any dyno results yet for this system?

Otherwise, it looks and sounds awesome! Well done Riss Racing!

The O2 sim is nearly complete, they are doing final testing on my car to be certain the output signals are proper.

Yes, I spoke with them Thursday and they received a new CEL they did not expect, did some checking and decided they needed to do more work. It appears that the ECU is not only sensitive, but more complex than a BMW ECU. I believe much of Friday was, and Monday will be, spent sorting this out, the O2 sim will be a far more complex device than any previously built.

Strangely enough, its not the project! Its more performance based. As soon as we complete the last "fitting" we'll release the full package.

More ideas

Since you guys at Riss are on a roll I have another idea. What about a hard turbo inlet pipe? A lot of companies offer the silicone ones but no one is selling a hard pipe yet for the turbo inlet tube. Maybe offer different powerdercoat options? Also, make it a direct replacement for the OEM tube. I know NM engineering is going with the proprietary part route that fits up to their CAI and it's upsetting to people who already have paid for a different CAI that they really like.

Oh and it would have to work with DDM Works' RAS (ram air scoop) that fits under the hood. A lot of us have that and we sure would not like any interference.
