Did you install new studs/gaskets?? The car is 12 months old and has covered 5k miles.

My Tubi headers and Awe cats will be here next week, to complete my Tubi mufflers.
Cant wait to see how its gonna sound, evil I imagine!

The bolts and gaskets are cheap...so if you want to replace them go ahead. I didn't replace the bolts as the car was only 2 mos. old when I did it and the bolts are not TTY bolts so they should be able to be reused. The gasket can also be reused but most headers come with the new steel gasket Porsche uses.

Baptist, I've been debating between AWE and Tubi for like 3 months. I love the TUBI sound but the cost is so high compared to AWE. If money was no object I would def get your set up. I bet once you post the video and I hear it, there goes my money. Any pics of your car?

Here is mine.

My AWE setup came with new hardware (ie: Gaskets, bolts, etc.). Check with your dealer to make sure everything you need / want is included.
