Europipe stage 1 fitted

I took the car to the shop this afternoon and fitted the EP1. It took only 1hr 20 mins for two guys to fit the exhaust. The are very experienced porsche mechanics, having done countless exhausts installations in the past.
We were all impressed with exhaust's quality, and that it fits like a glove.

The car now sounds like Porsche, it is very pleasant at idle, beautiful at normal cruising and wild at full throttle. Performance gains are immediately noticeable. Car is super responsive to throttle inputs, Tiptronic is more eager to downshift, pulls stronger, and turbos come alive much sooner. What else can you ask for????

I am totally happy with this modification, if anyone can call this a "modification", because I think this is how the car should have been in the first place.

Well done Stef, well done indeed.

p.s. have to run i will post pics later.

Nice report. Any chance for some videos and sound clips in action on the street?

That's a phenomenal install time, do you have a 997.1?

Here are some photos.

About the sound clip, I doubt my BB can capture the real sound coming from the exhaust. Any sound clip like that could be misleading.

The only thing better on a tt than a EP1 is a EP2.

CarreraTurbo is infamous around these parts
Thumbs up

I had two Europipe exhausts from Stef and installed/deinstalled them myself several times on my 996TT without taking the bumper off. Not sure if this can be done on 997.
Great quality product and service from Stef as you noted.
Enjoy the sound!
