Mod 1 in transit :)

The exhaust quest should be over. AWE Tuning in transit; can't wait

First mod to my bone stock TT (unless you count the window tint and aux-in cable LOL).

Mod 1

I hear ya, got a Gemballa full exhaust with race cats on the way!! Definitely next is a good ECU tune, but that's a whole different decision process. Down to three, Softronics, Promotive, &/or GIAC........

Nice! Yeah, modding a TT is exhausting. Way too many options

It's been bad! I finally had some time to take it out last Friday after a few weeks of sitting; I need a job along a mountain road so I can drive to work

Yep, both the Z and the TT live on the battery tender. The bike is the one that gets all the action. 17k mi in less than 2 years! Next thing I know I'll have to get a S1000RR as replacement

Sport bikes are SO much fun! It's like a 400 pound bullet LOL They are hard on your body though; mainly back and neck. I think I'm definitely at the top of the age range of sport bike riders

Have an AWE Gen2 exhaust on mine - am a big fan of it.

2.5" exhaust with 200 cell HJS cats won't ever be the biggest, baddest exhaust for max power... but it suits my needs nicely. Noticeably better spool, sounds great, and the drone is very minimal for an aftermarket 996TT exhaust, as compared to the stocker.

Hope your bolts/nuts connecting your stock cats to your turbos are not seized up like mine. I'm in the middle of an exhaust install and this has become a major roadblock/headache

I was told to spray the bolts with liquid wrench and let it sit overnight. That should help.
