Currently looking for a test car. We need someone to loan us their vehicle for 30 days. It will be kept indoors and covered.

We are located in Willow Grove, Pa appx. 30 minutes northwest of Philadelphia.

Thanks!

Yes it is good work. I finding myself a bit jealous right now. 40+ hp on a 996 GT3 (ie 420 @ the crank) custom exhaust is very intriguing.

To be perfectly honest, the gains surprised us, too. Most of the gains were found in the cat sections, even though we are still using a 300 cell metal core cat.

However, if you think about it, why should a 3.8l make so much less than the 3.6l GT3? Granted, there are other hardware differences besides the displacement between those two engines, but it makes you wonder how much power was actually left on the table with the 3.8l as from the factory.

And even with these gains, the 3.8l still does not match the GT3 in stock form as far as hp. Check out this dyno sheet:



Believe me when I say that we dyno tested the heck out of each stage, reverting the car back to stock several times just to verify the massive numbers we were seeing. The last thing we want to do is sell product on hype and get caught in a lie.

On a related note, the 997S is very finicky to dyno. There are 4 fuel maps that the ECU can choose from depending on operational data, and without *very* careful cooling, you will see results all over the place. Strong, high velocity fans must be placed on the radiators and intake temps need to be closely monitored to achieve valid results. A detailed instruction sheet explaining proper dyno procedure will accompany all the power related products we sell for this model.

And here is a dyno sheet of the GIAC chip and what it did *on top* of the results we are posting for the exhaust:



Any questions, let us know.
