Can you provide a flash solution for my GT3? GIAC or recommend, 6Speed price?
Thanks.

Wow the EP is off da hizzle! 5K huh? Do you get a free T-shirt?
Is there a pipe for a 997S???
If you buy this particular pipe did you say you have to re-map the ECU?

It purs, then when you get on it it unleashes a scream that gives you (expletive deleted) to redline. Yes there's some additional power from it (always welcome on an NA car but not as easy as on a Turbo car) but their crafstmanship is simply stunning. The welds, the bends, the flanges, the fit, the brackets, the hardware... It's almost jewelry, yes it's that good. I don't work for Europipe and I probably don't even sell that many of their exhausts but for those of you with a GT3 that can fork out the cash (no the system isn't cheap), I whole-heartedly recommend it. I'll make a video next time- promise. It's hard to improve upon what we all know is practically a perfect car in the GT3 but I really feel that those wacky Belgians managed to.
This car's been a work-in-progress for a while but as far as GT3s go I don't recall one as zippy as this fella. It's got the GIAC flash, GT3 seats, RS Wing and some other fun parts (oh those yummy BBS wheels).

Mine did not include a chip or remapped ECU. This is a street car and weekend warrior. So, now I am shopping for a re-flash.
Thanks.

Personally I love the manthey sound in a tunnel, now if I could just
get my GT3 with the lite weight flywheel upgrade back!!! I can hardly wait
to see how it revs. BTW the Manthey exhaust comes with the ECU reflash with the 410 kit, but you have to speak German.

Gears are $700 each x 3 or 4 gears....3-5th is what you change and or maybe 6th, you can put 5th into 6th, plus $500 to install gears.
I got Brian Copans at BMC&G to do the tranny work.. very happy.
