Fabspeed Motorsport, MP4-12C Project Car
Hello Everyone,
Our latest project car is the McLaren MP4-12C. We have a very good, repeat customer who has lend us his car for development work. We are planning on making a new sport catalytic converter section, as well as new X-pipe exhaust (as an alternative to the expensive H-pipe exhaust Mclaren offers as an option). We may also consider a few other items, so please stay tuned to the progress.
Please feel free to call, email or PM me at any time with any questions you may have. Thanks!

Below are some new photos which show the the factory sport exhaust option ($5,000). Our X-pipe exhaust will certainly be less! Also, notice the factory cats (with two sets of cats per side)... they look very restrictive. I am not sure of the exact cell count, but we estimate 750-1000 CPSI. We will be using the latest HJS 200 cell cats for our sport cats. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Hey Everyone,
Since we are still waiting for a new set of catalytic converter cores from HJS in Germany, we have had time to just about finish the rest of the exhaust system. As you can see from the pictures, we have also made a set of optional quad tips. We have designed the system to be used with either the factory tips or our quad tips. The tips turned out a lot better than we thought and are also available with a black ceramic coating. Let me know what you think. I will give you an update about the cats as soon as they are finished. Thanks!

Agreed on the tips. Either black them out, or don't make them round. Still, I do dig quad tips, and I do dig the stuff you guys push out. 
(Disclaimer: Chrome tips just usually aren't my thing. So I'm negatively biased in this case.)
Still, top notch, indeed!
