GMG's NEW 997 WC Sport Exhaust with Center Exit on Blakt Outs 997!!
 

GMG's new 997 Exhaust. I've got it. It's my 4th exhaust, and it will be my last!
Guys,

My car and I were in LA this past week, so we of course swing by Santa Ana and see Fabryce and the crew at GMG. I had talked to Fabryce about his center exit exhaust for the 997S for street/track use, and I had give it a try. I previously had a race car only exhaust, and it just couldn't be driven without a helmet on. It was that loud. (If anyone wants a SUPER light, high flowing exhaust for a track only car, PM me).

Anyway, I end up having an exhaust with the plate "Proto001" installed on my car. Knowing that I'm all about the blacked out look, Fab had it all thermal coated, which is an awesome option to offer and looks amazing. Wherever he gets this done, the whole exhaust, all the welds, all the bends, everything... it's perfect. I'm so impressed.

Fab somehow was able to assure me that the exhaust would be civil at freeway speeds in 6th gear, but would uncork and scream when you open up the throttle body. How he could know this, when Proto001 is on my car, I had no idea and still don't. But he was exactly right. This exhaust is the best looking, best sounding exhaust that I have ever seen on these cars. Fitment is perfect, as some other kits that I've had are as well. But the sound...

Trust me on the sound. Trust me that it doesn't drone unless you just hold the throttle at some weird point like 3400rpm and just sit there. Who does that? In other words, it's wonderful. It can be quiet. It can scream. I met up with some other guys, having driven up PCH from LA to San Fran, and everyone that saw and heard it loved it.

I think they take a while to build, and I have to assume he has no stock. Mine was the development one. He's also offering a total package of the rear bumper in carbon kevlar with the exhaust. I have that too. You'll see in my pics that my bumper wasn't prepped well and was painted way too thin. That's my fault on my end, but it fits amazingly well, is light, and is really cool to look at the inside of.

My hat's off to Fabryce and James and the crew. They didn't ask me to do this, but this is Porsche OEM quality and I had to share. My car arrives back in North Carolina in a week. I'll get some sound bits up then. I think Fab shot some, but I don't know how they turned out. Maybe he'll throw it up here.

Pics!

I also had to just throw a pic in of their shop. If you haven't been there, go there. It's a car guy's dream, and you can eat off the floor. That's my car up in the air on the right.

Ridiculous as always, I wish GMG were my home shop :(

+1, amazing work, these guys are no joke. If you were in my hometown I would be broke :)

That looks amazing. Great work.

the exhaust looks amazing, i really love it matte black!! ENJOY IT BRO.. :)

Thanks. Yeah, the thermal coated matte black is perfect. I'm so impressed with the finish. And if you think about it, how weird is it that exhausts became a place for shiny bling?

They AREN'T in my hometown, not even close! Los Angeles from Asheville, NC???

Even so, I HAVE about gone broke with these boys. Here are things that I've bought from GMG

GMG Half Cage
GMG WC Center Exit Exhaust
GMG "Dog Bone" Links
GMG 5 way adjustable Sway Bars
GMG Adjustable Sway Bar end links
Moton Club Sports per GMG valving
Springs for Motons, per GMG spec
Adjustable lower control arms
GMG Toe steer kit
Monoball solid mounts for Motons
GMG WC Carbon/Kevlar rear bumper
GMG Carbon GT3 nose vent
GMG WC GT3RS carbon rear wing

I totalled just that up, no install labor or anything. Right at $24k. Wow. I hope I get a Christmas card, Fabryce!

Nah, joking aside... These guys are wonderful. I wish they were in the Redneck Hills here with me too.

:lol: maybe a fruitcake or something

HA!

Very nice looking, the craftsmanship looks excellent. I may have to pay a visit to them in the near future.
