just want to give a lil review, i ordered my fabspeed NON S bypass pipes from alex at fabspeed, they hooked it up and and shipped fast great service.

I took them to a exhaust specialist place and it was pretty simple, just dropped out the mufflers slapped these on.

When i turned the car on i was like holy **** lol, i didnt evne imagine a carrera can sound like that, for most people it might be to loud but i am in love, i look forward to driving my car every dam day now, its so loud but so deep and low at the same time unexplainable unless you have them.

A+++ on these, also no real loss of power on low end and i do feel a slight bump around 4500 RPM or so (could be mental)

2005 997.1 btw

 

Would love to hear a sound clip.

Do these bypass the cats or the mufflers or both?

 

How does the fabspeed Primary bypass compare to Sharkwerks in terms of increase in decibel? Anyone here with sound clips of either bypass?

 

I have NO experience with these bypass pipes BUT I cannot see that there would be any difference in decibels.....after-all they are both just bypass pipes and a pipe is open at both ends
That is just my opinion and may be wrong!

Very cool. You'll love them. I had them no my 993 (supercups).

If they are muffler bypass pipes there's a video clip on fabspeed's site.

Huge difference in the Fabspeed By Pass for either the 997.1 or .2 and the Sharkwerks which is for the 997.2. The Sharkwerks by passes the center muffler on the .2 and the Fabspeed uses the center muffler as the only muffler and by passes the 2 side mufflers.

I had the Fabspeed by pass pipes on my 997.2 and they are really loud...I loved them but there is some serious drone on the highway at 2000-2500 rpm. It is Cup car race car loud.

 

Love bypass pipes. I had them on my 997 S (fabspeed) and when the shop pulled my car around after installing them i was like "whos beast is that starting up in the shop?" --- they reply "thats YOUR car!"

A+ for the sound!....enjoy!

 

Thanks for the great feedback Izwar and everyone else. Let me know if you have any questions and glad to hear you enjoy your cars.
Thanks,

 

If anyone wants a slight step down in sound, I've got a set of gently used AfterHours mufflers (with OEM S tips) for sale. They are about 75% the way to total bypass. Absolutely fierce!

Hello everyone. Looking for some help here. I just purchased a 2008 C2S. White, red gut. I would like to get approx 15-20 hsp and was wondering how I could achieve this while also raising the noise level too. Is it possible to achieve this while still staying within the Porsche warranty? Thanks for your responses.

 

A full AWE system (headers/cats/mufflers) will give you around 25-30 BHP increase at the crank. Great quality, superb sound, very noticeable power hike and proven to work again and again. I'd be concerned about warranty though once the cats are replaced - that said, you can always put the stock exhaust back on if you need to go to the stealer.....

 

here is mine is the fabspeed bypass pipes. the sound is very MEAN IMHO

Great video! The sound of the Fabspeed Bypass Pipes are incredible IMO.

Nice lines by the way, I used to visit Spring Mountain about once every six weeks
