The Best Sounding street GT3 Ever...

Those guys at Europipe (stef and herman) are well known for their 996TT exhausts and this is only the fourth time we've done their exthaust system on a GT3. Words cannot describe the sound. As far as 996s go, there's no better sounding car- period. It burbles with a nice mid range tone at iddle. 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).

I promise I will. I know there aren't many of these out there hence the reason for the lack of clips. As I was saying in the post, it was risky out there tonight... He'll be back for some headers etc.. so we'll do it then, right Alvin

Sharkster,

Thanks for the tease, can't wait for the hear the sound bite. Can you tell me about the GIAC flash? What can one expect in a GT3 with headers, pipe and K&N filter?

Hi Daryl,

You can expect about 14-15 to the wheels more.. Not sure what sort of headers you have?
