Quite a few updates now... for one thing she's in the 2009 TechArt calendar all decked out but for those of you that haven't seen (and hear heh...) Dan whipped up a video over the last few days showing all of these mods in the flesh and more importantly the sound of our exhaust that we've settled on (it'll be out very shortly!):

Wow! Just wow! Great video. That car looked scary fast accelerating away from the camera on the long straight backroad.

Hey Andre, cheers for the kind words and I have to say along with the new DI motor and that transmission she's really zippy!

Thanks RobertM and that's a tough question and I'll do my best here... Is it quicker than I could ever be in a 6speed? Absolutely. Is it easier to drive? You bet. Is it as much fun as the 6speed in the RS? Probably not. I think if you look at it from the stand point of having replaced the tiptronic then it's come on leaps and bounds. If you want a 6speed for reasons like it being more involving, satisfying etc... then stay with that. Hope that helps!

I had a chance to ride in the car with Alex yesterday and having had my 09 CS2 PDK for 2 months now, there is a noticable difference in a more aggresive exhaust sound as well as well as a tad more pull when accelerating.

Hey Amag, so glad you liked it and looking forward to getting your beast in soon I'm hoping we got the right mix/blend for the majority of folks!

Looks neat, why did you guys go with straight pipes instead of an x-pipe?
What are the power gains over stock? Any dynos yet?
Power gains over an x-pipe?
Sound levels and back-pressure compared to an x-pipe?

Hey seven_227, thanks for the kind words. In fact, on day two of ownership we built an x-pipe but a few things made us decide to go a different way. But in basic terms, 1) It was honestly too quiet (think the the x-over area as a resonator), 2) It created a hot-spot 3) It didn't flow as well as a straighter through design and there's a reason why Porsche kept their center muffler to two separate banks. The lower pipe is right after the header/cat and is supposed to go into the center muffler (and u-bend which I believe we have improved upon) and feed the two side mufflers. By crossing over that far upstream if you will we were worried we'd actually hamper flow/hp. Would have been neat had it worked (was certainly a bit cheaper/easier for us to make). 4) We looked at the stock routing and decided not to mess with that but instead just get rid of the two sharp u-bends inside in favor of a straighter through design for better flow. James is the designer/expert and could explain it in much greater detail though if I could get him to stop working for 5 seconds

Thanks sharkster for the detailed explanation, what about power gains?

By the sound of it looks like it should make more hp than an x.

Hey Seven_227 glad that makes sense and I do want to stress that we did this primarily for sound and I _think_ we've got that part down to a good level for most folks but as far as power goes yes the design does have better flow but one dyno in one location vs another in another one and under different conditions... I think as far as power gains go we're going to announce something soon but _with_ the aid of some software
