Tech quesiton re: catbaypass pipes

Hi all,

Just had my Fabspeed cat bypass pipes installed on my 958.2 GTS. Unfortunately one of the pipes did not fit well and has a small leak at the connector. I decided to leave it on until I either get a new pipe or some kind of fix. Question is...is it bad for my car to be driving with this small leak???

The driver side was tought for my installer. It was coming up misaligned and short. A second installer helped push some things in place and finished the install. I think that fixed the small leak

Just had my cat bypass pipes installed on my new 16 GTS TT at my local Porsche dealer. Everything fit perfect. Sounds great!

Which cat bypass pipes did you have installed that fit perfectly, Fabspeed? I think it sounds good notwithstanding the small leak. Mine won't get fixed for another 2 long weeks

Yeah, my misalignment was on the driver's side as well.
