I'm impressed by their systems, their designs, and their real world dyno testing processes.

I am as well. I want to go up there badly and have them rework my Moton's on my GT2, but they are so damn busy and pretty far from me.

I LOVE the RSR tips on the RS wow!

Performance increase?

Don't excuse me for speaking my mind...I always do:-)
I have a NEW GT3 engine apart now for work and UNLESS you increase the displacement....and/or cams....
There is little or no area for performance improvement in the engine bay!
Spending big money on a few, if any hp's doesn't make any real sense.
Flywheel is great but NOT what I consider engine performance upgrade. Exhaust changes, well they sure change sound but add little to the rear wheels. havefundriveporschetakechances=Mark
This is not a personal remark, this is just business.

No affiliation with the shop, I've just bought parts from them in the past and been satisfied. If racing improves the breed, F-L has it covered. Look at their record and history. I doubt they would tarnish their reputation with empty claims.

35 hp claimed gain with the software and reportedly no resonance is tempting me. The 21 lbs weight savings isn't bad considering there are replacement side mufflers. I cannot stand drone/resonance so I need to tread carefully when selecting a system. The price with software, install and the exhaust system runs close to $11K. Don't know if it is worth that much over the stock system which is already pretty good. Would love to know if anyone here has the system on and what they think. Obviously, there is an orange RS with it, but the owner is likely not on 6speed,

My apology, as my opinion regarding the 3.6 GT3 engine proper and it's performance enhancement claims has nothing to do with Greg Lollis & Co. or, for this matter, any other business. I regularly service these engines and know them intimately. With so many years of performance work on the Porsche engines, it is, to me anyway, discouraging that there really is no real capability in trying to extract more HP as the "rock" has been pretty much squeezed of it's blood by operations such as myself, colleagues and (most importantly) the factory. It just gets to me when this subject is bandied about, sorry for the confusion.
