Fabspeed Month of July Review
This has been one of the busiest months for Fabspeed Motorsports and I want to share what has been going on inside shop doors since we haven’t been posting on the forums recently. Starting from the first of the month and ending last week, this post will coordinate all installations, events, and new products regarding Fabspeed Motorsport.

July 1st
We had a local enthusiast bring his brand new, Audi S6 V10 to our shop for a custom Maxflo exhaust system and EVOMSit ECU Upgrade. First we strapped the 5.2L V10 to our AWD Dynojet to run a baseline. Then we custom built a set of Maxflo mufflers with dual-style T304 stainless steel polished tips. While the fabricators were busy manufacturing the exhaust system, we removed the two ECU modules and recalibrated them utilizing the EVOMSit tune. After the exhaust and ECU upgrade were finalized, the S6 went back onto the dyno. Verified gains of +50HP/44 ft-lbs. of torque to the wheels.



July 5th
Drove to F.C. Kerbeck in New Jersey to pick up a customer’s Lamborghini Murcielago for the install of our newly designed, 70mm X-Pipe, 4.5” deluxe Tips, and EVOMSit ECU upgrade.


July 6th
Fabricators removed the stock 2ndary catalytic converters, large muffler, and ugly tips. With the stock products removed, development will begin on the new Maxflo 70mm exhaust system.


On the same day the fabricators finalized the 986 Boxster Maxflo race
exhaust prototype system, ready to be built, polished and installed.


July 7th

Installation of our 200 cell sportcats on a 1997 Ferrari F355.

We had a special delivery on this Friday, a very loyal customer shipped his Ferrari Scuderia to Fabspeed for the installation of our catbypass pipes and ECU recalibration. The Scuderia already had our headers, sportcats, and ECU installed.


July 17th
Fabspeed Motorsport in accordance with Evolution Motorsports hosted an exclusive track day at NJMP Lightning track, during the ROLEX race weekend. We had a great turnout with many exotic vehicles on hand, notables includes the Gumpert Apollo, Ferrari Scuderia, EVO’s Porsche 997.2 Turbo EVT 650, 997TT EVT1200, Lamborghini Gallardo, BMW M3 Sport Edition, and many other Porsche vehicles. We would like to thank Todd at Evolution Motorsport for making the trip over to Fabspeed and also everyone else who came to the track.

July 19th We had a previous customer come back to Fabspeed for the installation of our sport headers on his 2009 Ferrari F430. The customer was here the week prior for the EVOMSit ECU upgrade, and now was ready for even more power. Since Todd from EVO was present, he retuned the ECU at no additional cost.

July 20th
A local customer popped into Fabspeed with his 997 Turbo which already had our 200 cell sportcats and Muffler bypass pipes installed. They were a bit too loud since he has a TipTronic, so we swapped them out for our Ver. 3 mufflers. While he was here we installed the EVO Boost Recirculation Valves and also tuned the ECU’s with Todd on the Dyno. Just with the ECU program alone, power improved +76HP/98 ft-lbs of torque TO THE WHEELS!!

Also on this day, the fabricators finalized the new dual-style polished tips for the 911 Turbo-930 Maxflo Mufflers.


July 21st
The prototype X-Pipe muffler bypass was finished and ready to be installed and dyno tested. With Todd here, we were able to dial in the correct air/fuel ratio for the Maxflo sport headers/catbypass pipes/X-Pipe bypass and polished tips. Power improved +18HP/27 ft-lbs of torque to the wheels. With the addition of the ECU upgrade, total power improved to 503WHP/342 ft-lbs of torque.

KPG from Excellence Auto Carriers came to pick up Todd’s vehicles and bring them back to Arizona. On the carrier, Kevin had the new Audi R8 V10 Spyder, and the Audi R10 TDI that won the 12 hours of Sebring and 24 hours of Le Mans in 2006.





Fabspeed Motorsports wants to thank all of those who made this month very busy for us! We especially want to thank Todd from Evolution Motorsports for making the trek out to the East Coast and joining Fabspeed for a track day and then spending the rest of the week here at the shop dyno tuning.

 

WOW, you guys look like you do some serious work, not often you see a Gumpert in a shops garage.

 

All We'll Drive, it's been a ride this past month. Todd from Evolution Motorsports had his three vehicles here for about two weeks, and yes the Gumpert is an amazing machine, very rare. But the 997 Turbo EVT1200 was the monster in the garage.
