I have this on my car and would love to see other owners experience with this kit.

Thanks,

Tom

I've had the 750R kit for 3.5yrs on my 997.1 Mt car. Works well. Very streatable. Hasn't killed gas mileage too much. I get 8mpg worst case and 23mpg best case on highway (down two mpg best case).

I had "off road" pipes or not cats which is what I think you mean by "test pipes" on a 996tt with a Protomotive 650 kit. I think it certainly gained in hp due to less exhaust restriction .

My AWE 750R car has the AWE cats and exhaust. The only think I did change out was I swapped the AWE headers for 997 tt stock units only because the AWE units hang so low they got flattened by 50% on the lowest hanging tubes each side and I didn't want to have them fixed.

Several folks with experience on modded turbos suggested the stock headers would not greatly change the pwr for the car. AWE of course suggested the testing of the entire kit was with the AWE headers so I'm taking my chances.

fabspeed quoted me 600$ for bypass pipes apparently you can disconnect where the cats are by undoing the vband clamps and putting in their bypass pipes.
gona probably go that route and can switch back and forth pretty neat
