Milltek Exhaust

Is it just me but it sucks that Milltek stopped making the exhaust for the Z4 35is. I personally think it is the best sounding exhaust for the Z4. Anyone know where I can get my hands on one.

Thanks,
Jake

I have Milltek on my Z4 and sound of this exhaust is really great. I dont understand, why they stop selling exhaust for Z4 :-(

I'm starting to see this happen to more and more products for the E89. Unfortunately our cars never sold well (huge understatement) and now that they're out of production this is just gonna get worse... For something like an exhaust it might be worth calling them up to see if they'll still make one to order. If they kept the jigs it should be easy enough.

When I went shopping I basically found that many of the manufacturers had ceased production for the Z4 exhaust - just no market. I had my system custom made by mandrelbend solutions in Pasadena, MD. High quality and not expensive. I'm happy with the sound, flow, et cetera.

Last I checked 3+ month wait on Supersprint. And being Italian, I wouldn't trust the delivery date as far as I could throw it.

Is that a stock photo of something else? That won't fit.

Do your reading on "Becker" exhausts ... YMMV ... I considered this approach as a starting point but ended up up not doing it. For about 50% more I my exhaust was custom made, behind downpipes, with high flow cats.
