Thumbs up Fabspeed installed

I installed my Fabspeed yesterday on my 08 997TT

Pulling the bumper was easy , removing the induction was simple ....

Getting to some of the nuts on the turbo to remove the stock system was a *****...

You need a rachet 13mm wrench box type, long open end 13 mm

22 MM WRENCH OR A 7/8 FOR THE SENSOR'S

long screwdrive for placing the wires back in place.

Anti-seze compound

I ceramic coated the system black and the install was easy, more room than before for installing the cats to the turbo, The heat sheilds are sharp so wear gloves.

I made a set of silicone seals to attach to the clamps that hold the mufflers.

I disconnected the battery to re-set the system , started the car and got a PASM light on , This reset after a few minutes of running the engine.

I like the sound , better throttle response....

Iam going to pick tip's next , Fabspeed ot techart

Thanx all

It did take me around six hours , I did do some cleaning while I had it all apart, coat of wax here and there....

Sorry No pic's

I'd recommend getting some 996 c4s clamps to replace the v band clamps btwn the cat and muffler, those 1/4" bolts won't take much, might loosen. The oem version is 10mm case hardened German steel. Enjoy, the sound is phenominal!
