Default GT3 in Aus

Should be picking up my GT3 next week, called in today to see the new engine going in. Looking forward to getting it out on the track.

In the pics below you can see the cargraphics headers with high flow cats and also the sharkwerks bypass installed. Have also got the sharkwerks track exhaust but will start with the bypass for now.

More pics as it gets ready for delivery.

Look great. It's never been driven right?

Are you having the PCCBs fitted too before you use it?

Car graphic make great stuff. Can't wait to hear it. Have SHarkworks but my I promised I'd keep this 911 "quiet"! I'd be interested how much louder it is if at all with the headers...

Did you still keep on the Porsche side mufflers and only removed the rear for the bypass and changed out headers and cats?

Never driven Macca, straight off the boat !!

PCCB's are being installed early next week and will stay on until the Movit's arrive. Just need to work out how to get it across the ditch to Highlands when you're back in NZ !! First track session is scheduled for end of Oct.

Yep, exactly that. I'm going to try a few track sessions with the bypass exhaust before removing the side mufflers and replacing them with the sharkwerks straight through track exhaust.

They haven't given any data, I was going to do a before and after on the dyno first up but can't be bothered yet, just want to get out and drive it. Will look at doing some dyno comparisons once I've got some km's on it.

^You do not need to drop the motor to do that. I do not even think you have to remove the rear bumper for that

Are you doing before and after SW bypass dynos? I'd love to see that.

You will not get any HP or Torque increases with the SW Bypass - strictly for increased loudness with the PSE activated
