ECU or exhaust

I have 500hp on my turbo, and I was wondering if I should do the EVOMSit or get a fabspeed exhaust on it? I drive my car to work early in the morning, so would I need louder or faster? Please give me your opinion.

nash is an unknown quantity at this point
Also consider the implications of a chipped car without a performance exhaust. Your EGTs will be higher as the stock exhaust can't flow enough for the extra heat you are generating. Whether this is a true concern or not, I'm not sure ... something I was going to research myself, anyway. Anyone chime in on a chipped car with no exhaust?

And of course if you don't get an exhaust, you won't get the full potential of your chip (read: full horsepower/tq gains).

Get the exhaust first befiore you mod the ECU. You will leave ECU gains on the table if you don't have a modified exhaust first. Alos, you might want to broaden your exhaust search beyond Fabspeed to also include Cargraphic, Tubi and FVD.

agree that you will need an exhaust if you "chip it"

i would start there first, get it installed, se what you think, then decide on the tune

+1
VGT turbines don't like high exhaust gas temps. For best gains and longevity of components, free flow exhaust should be fitted when ECU is flashed. Less backpressure lowers EGTS significantly plus over-all gains will be dramatically better.

my997turbo,

I have a question.

Is the dealership that services the car friendly to modified cars, or if you change something they are bound to give you trouble?

Just do both, you are going to need an exhaust to take full advantage of the ECU.

my997turbo, go with the exhaust upgrade first and then tune the ECU with EVOMSit to insure maxium power because you will see a greater HP and TQ gain if done with the ECU. It wont make any sense to do the tune first and then add the exhaust upgrade later because you will gain more power from the ECU if it is tuned with the muffler or after other mods.
Thanks

Do both the Evomsit and the Fabspeed at the same time.

Now you've just got to decide how you want that beast to sound. Each exhaust has it's own distinct characteristics so take a listen to some of them before you jump in.

That's good. You are lucky.

The reason I asked is because G.I.A.C. can offer you the ability to go back to stock with the push of a button. Stock timing, fuel, and boost levels...

Regarding the exhaust, what are your requirements there?

Our philosophy with exaust design is simple. It's loud when it needs to be, and quiet when it has to be.

We know that many of our clients may have family or clients in the car, plus want to hear the radio, or speak on a cell or hands free. So with that in mind, we make sure that tone and volume are not overpowering.

However, when you go wide open throttle, we want the experience to be one where you feel as though you just stepped foot in a factory prepped racecar.

Please visit our web site for further descriptions, pictures, and video of our A.W.E. Tuning 997TT exhaust.
