Spoke with Fabspeed regarding muffler bypasses for GT3. They told me that they got a doner car in, fabricated the pipes and they are now in production, 2-3 weeks away. They indicated that you can expect a 15hp gain and a 50lb weight reduction by losing the mufflers...Does this sound reasonable, especially the HP gain??? Opinions appreciated. Sounds like the best $500 mod one could do....

Are there any negative affects by reducing exhaust back pressure or is this all good, if you can bare the sound????

 

I have heard the Fabspeed bypass pipes and they are loud, great for the track, it depends on the type of use one uses their car on the street if its for long drives or just quick fun rides, Fabspeed moderate here on the Turbo and its very nice and will still set off car alarms.

 

and drive at night you are going to keep me up here in Ithaca

 

James, Stay away from Remus, their product is junk, doesnt hold up well, go with all Fabspeed, you will me happier in the long run.

 

shizzle, I wish you have given me the schoop earlier

oh well, whats done is done even though I haven't installed it yet. I will go through with it and let you know and post some pics, then maybe sell it on Ebay in the future

Rockitman - sorry for stealing your thread - I won't complain if you disrupt my sleep

 

James, Well hopefully it works out for you, I was just trying to give you the heads up as I have 2 friends that had Remus on their BMWs and the finish didnt hold up well at all and they were not pleased.
