    UGH, this is pretty disappointing. Isn't this the normal black Friday - cyber Monday discounts that Supersprint offers? I mean if you look at ECS tuning pricing on the Supersprint parts is more than Schmiedmann. Doesn't Schmiedmann also run the Friday - cyber Monday discounts? I thought we were looking at least as 35-40% off.

      We’re comparing a one day, end of year promotion to clear out inventory and keep the factory busy during winter time to a beginning of season GB dead smack in the middle of their highest sales season?

      Schmiedmann ships from Europe - you will be charged duties and higher shipping charges.

      Let’s compare Apples to Apples here.

        None the less this is a nice GB and I appreciate the effort. Some people are ready to spring for SS parts at cost and this will push them over the edge, including myself.

        I appreciate the opportunity to get 25-30% off this spring. I would obviously agree that 40-50% would be better but did anyone truly expect such a drastic price reduction? That 50% Black Friday deal was likely not to be repeated as much as we may wish.

          The 50% off deal was an anomaly because of a covert Group Buy that was ran Supersprint direct by a Facebook group member and was hidden away from sight as Supersprint realized its mistake of undercutting its global distributors. ECS most likely ran that special to get those sales their way.

          Those were unrealistic expectations. We can’t expect to get the ultimate exhaust systems for our cars at company bankruptcy pricing. These companies need to make money.

            Any chance that SS can make a complete 2.5" section 3 as well to make it full 2.5" from headers to exhaust? Right now it necks down at the end of section 2.

              25-30% is still a great deal given the timing. Anything in the 40-50% seems incredibly unrealistic. Looking forward to adding a SS system to the car.

                Ian, what's the idea behind getting cats for a track car? I would think straight pipes are better and cheaper on track.

                And to reiterate Ian's statement, the other cats just don't last on track - only the HJS cats. The CPI 200 cell Magnaflow cats disintegrated from my section 1 from track use.

                  Awesome! Thank you so much for this.


                  For those that are saying these are similar to Black Friday deals, the Black Friday deals were 10%-25% off. Not every SS product was 25%. So 25%-30% off is a bargain.

                  I just paid off my Amex. Looks like I’ll be charging it up again 😂

                    When is this happening? Not the conversations, but the ability to actual buy some SS products? I have faith, but until I am on a site adding this to my cart, I feel like this is still a fantasy 😐

                      They'll make you a custom 2.5" section 3 if you ask them, from what I've heard. You'd have to go to them directly though.

                        I didn't say track car, I said if you track the car.

                        I track my car, but that doesn't mean I want to be miserable every time I come to a traffic light on the street and ruin my interior with the catless stench.

                          You can’t even get used SS parts for 50% so I don’t expect that level of sale, especially when they are in high demands. I’d be very happy with 30% off. Let’s get rolling as soon as we can so I don’t go spending my money elsewhere.

                            I remember Chase got them to do something similar. I asked them to make a resonated section 1 that will fit SSV1. I'm trying to pass sound for Laguna. Supersprint then ask that I go through ECS for the ordering though. I have the part number from SS, but ECS is having a difficult time getting details to lock down the order details.

                              Something else to consider is that Supersprint lowered its pricing on our products like 2 years ago, after the big sale. So the retail pricing you see now is basically what we were getting during previous sales and black Fridays. Now you're taking another 25-30% off that.

                              Here's an example. For as long as I can remember, catted SS pipes were over $3k (3.2 iirc). Now, retail is $22xx-2300. So now take 25% off 2200 = ~$1650.

                              This is basically 50% off the old pricing (from pre 2017 or 18, can't remember).

                                Guys, I have what some might consider a silly question but its with good intent. I'd really like to get a pair of V1 headers, but man, even with the discount the cost of the SS cats is really a lot of money to spend when buying both the headers and section 1 simultaneously. So in an effort to keep the project costs down, is it feasible to remove the stock cats from the headers and install them on the stock section 1? Yes, I understand it would require someone with fabrication and welding skill since not only would section 1 need to be shortened to accommodate the headers, but also ports for the O2 sensors and cats. Just wondering if someone has attempted this and if it's a feasible option. Thanks...
