Finally got a chance to install this today. Looks so much better than stock. Jeremy@fabspeed did an excellent job getting this tips powdercoated and back to me in a week. Great service. Here are a few pics.

Look great - let us know how the powder coating holds up. Others have tried it and reportd that the TT exhaust heat can cause problems.

Cargraphic Export Version....I'm very happy with the sound. If you don't like lound exhaust then this probably won't be the best choice.

I think the pitch is important, the 997TT has a rather dull sound. the GT3 exhaust on the turbo sounds amazing tho.

How do you put a GT3 exhaust on a TT? The "plumbing" is very different.

Ceramic or powder coated? Best bet is to get them ceramic coated - see BeeGee's post right below your.

Thumbs up Coating

I have over 5k on my Ceramic coated exhaust and it's still in great shape...

I had my Ducati 999R Xerox Edtion done in Champange Gold , The same for my new Desmosedici D16RR ......

My Desmo scream's 191 hp at the rear wheel with a weight of 365 Lbs

It's worth the 73K and since they only made 400 for the U.S. market

It's a keeper

I have a extra one For Sale ?

Gee-Bee

Sounds pretty good...but I went to the 9ff website and I don't see anything called a "GT3 conversion".
