Wait, so this exhaust is compatible with the 997.2 Carrera GTS?

It sounds awesome.

Anyway, not a dig - just trying to understand exactly what I'm seeing here.

We are on the page. I know you were not taking a shot at us. Frankly, I'm glad you asked.

Agree, the ambient temps can play a role, but that means they would play a role with the stock run as well. What the car's baseline is not nearly as important as what the test is.

We use the dyno as a means to show the before and after. When doing comparisons like this, we do the baseline and test on the same day, and as close together as we can. Sometimes it is hot, other days cold, sometimes humid, sometimes not. Just know that the dyno above was from the same day. The base was not done on a 100 degree day, then the test done in the winter on a 30 degree day...

I have to add, and I don't think you did this, but folks tend to get caught up in the stock wheel horsepower numbers and why this dyno read that and some other dyno read this. For the record, that means nothing to us.

We test the car stock and get a number. We test the car with our parts and get another number.

If you did your homework right, the second number is higher across the board...

Keep the questions coming. It's good for the group.

I would quantify the increased noise to be about 10-12% more.

However, roll the windows down and it's a different story. Very Cup Car'esque...

Did nothing for performance. We could not make power with that design.

Good company right there.

Thanks much, savyboy.

Most normally aspirated exhausts tend to lose power and tq somewhere, but gain it somewhere else.

To gain across the board is pretty impressive.

We are not ashamed to admit it, but we studied the Cup and Cup RSR exhausts to get some ideas then ran with it.

I am going to say that this is the best Porsche (non-CGT) exhaust I have heard and exactly what these cars need. Well done.
I don't exactly recall, but I do remember having scrambled eggs, white toast, and four strips of bacon for breakfast. lol



Thanks for the compliments!

Nice power gains and an amazing sound to boot! Well done guys!

I totally agree with HarveyMushman, that this is the best Porsche (non-CGT) exhaust I've heard.
