SharkWerks invaded by Canada!

I'm pretty chuffed when someone goes to the trouble to drive their car from far away. This white/red themed 2010 997.2 GT3RS made the long drive down from Vancouver (Canada) to get SharkWerks'd. On tap was the EVOMSit Software, the RSS rear suspension links and the SharkWerks exhaust.

In she comes:


Nice front plate! All the way from Canada and some I5 bugs. Good to see it driven:


Off comes the rear bumper and heat shields:


On goes the Shark pipe. As you can see we made sure to keep a universal flange so that those of you with the expensive Titanium RS tips can simply re-use them:


Like so:


Somebody uploading the tuned EVOMSit file via the OBDII port and laptop:


A few minutes later:


With the wheels off we have access to the rear links:


RSS Bump Steer and Dog Bone kit installed:


And ready to go back to Canada:

Just hit LA few hours ago, recived a text from my friend saying my car is on the forum already...

Needless to say, all people in sharkwerks are very friendly, shop is nice and clean. Saw their project cars, simply stunning.

The bypass sounds amazing! I hope the track manager would like it as well... What's more amazing is the software. My fuel consumption drops from 19L/100km to 12L/100km, which is 8MPG's difference i believe. Can't wait to try it on the track! Thanks for the work!

Great to have you on here! This is a good group of crazzies (just like us). Again it was great to meet you both and thanks so much for the kind words. Glad you like the new stereo:P Have a really good trip!

He will like it, but may not let you run as you exceed the sound limit.

Looking forward to play with you on the track one day.

Kudos to your customer for making the drive down! The drive back home should be even better with the exhaust, software and RSS Tarmac Stage 1 suspension...

nice work...

Thank you sir and I agree! It's great to see folks put the kind of miles that these cars deserve eh? Even better the suspension parts actually last and don't wear out. That's always been an issue with these sorts of parts in the past.

And for the music..
