Alex, I just installed today my crossover pipes......beautifully made and they fit perfect . The quality of everything including the clamps is first rate. I love love the sound. It really adds alot at the higher rpm's. yet good manners with normal driving.....I tried them with Launch Control and even my secretary in the building heard the difference...and she didn't even know I installed them. IMHO they are a must for a PDK car without sport exhausts....and a lot better value.
Thanks again for such a well made product.

Greetings Alex,
How hard is it to install the crossover pipes without a lift?

Also, will the engine lean out a bit due to less back pressure?
Curious, since I have soot on my tailpiopes now.

Do you have a DME calibration for 93 octane that fixes the mixture, keeps existing HP ( or slightly more), and improves gas mileage at light load (highway) driving?

also, why do you guys aim to have zero resonance? is it because in order to minimize the peaky torque and have higher and flatter torque?

thanks!

hey grease, it's actually VERY easy to install indeed. You can do it without a lift and the bumper doesn't even come off (there are instructions with the kit too).

There are multiple ignition maps and the AFRs were dead on even though we made a little bit more power (check the dynos).

We do have the EVOMSit software available for 91 or 93 octane modes as well. Gas mileage on our car has actually gone up a tiny bit when cruising on the freeway. It's already quite good in stock form but I won't complain

Thanks Enilder it is the full Type 1 kit and those are the Formular III wheels in 19s.

We wanted to have a PSE-like sound but on the inside we wanted to keep things nice and quiet and not have any annoying drone/resonance to make the exhaust more appealing to people (and also the Porsche dealers). That way you can use the fancy bluetooth/and or radio without being bothered
