Mike, the part number for the exhaust on the GT2 and GT2RS are the same.
If you are saying that SRatha's 997.1TT fits the above linked GT2 exhaust, shouldn't it fit your GT2RS exhaust?

The safe move is to put a .1 GT2 muffler on a .1TT with a bumper conversion.

I figured if the exhaust and tips share the same part numbers, they ought to fit.

After a few track days with the GT2 RS, it was apparent that with the additional grip provided by Hoosier R6s better seats and belts were needed, and due to the additional speed from the combination of the minds and expertise at AWE Tuning and G.I.A.C., a bolt-in Roll Bar wasn’t a bad idea either.
Porsche’s Sport seats work well on the street, but lack of needed lateral support and lack of harness compatibility meant that they needed to go. So in came the car, and out came the seats.
With the seats out, it was time to install the Roll Bar. With the first pieces of the Roll Bar mounted inside the car, this GT2 RS started to look more like a 24x7 performer.
Once the Roll Bar install was finished, it was time to address the belts and the seats. For the GT2 RS we went with Recaro Profili XL, and mated them to Schroth 6 Profi Harnesses. We selected this pair because both the seats and the belts are HANS compatible, which was very important. Simply stated, HANS devices save lives and are an extremely important safety measure for anyone on track, even more so for someone who has this much power on tap. As with all Recaro seats, the fit, finish and construction was all top-notch, and definitely look at home in the GT2 RS.
Once the interior was finished up, on went the new set of Hoosier R6s, and the GT2 RS was delivered to New Jersey Motorsports Park, where it was front and center for a PCA Sponsored Track Day and AWE Tuning’s Volkstreffen.
Here she is.
