Yep, that's right....new exhaust! My old Fabspeed gave out. I mean it really gave out. The Cats were completely shot and the one on the right got so hot it warped the flange connector causing an exhaust leak. Alex had to literally break off the bolts to get the cats out. I replaced it with a new Remus system, 200 cell sport cats, came with new tips. I think they look great and it sounds awesome. Better tone than the Fabspeed, no drone and aggressive note at WOT. I would definitely recommend it to others shopping for exhaust.

I really liked the car before, but you MUST throw a video clip in here somewhere for the full sound effect since you're all the way in Oregon now.

This must mean that you decided against the 997 design for the time being.

Looks nice, let's hear it.

Change them to BLUE and then your emergency switch will allow the car to attract more attention on rallys....

I'm told the weight and performance is similar to the Fabspeed. My butt dyno tells me the car is performing even better. probably because i had an exhaust leak and the cats were fried. I appreciate the compliments fellas. There is a chance i may see you on Sunday.
