Oh man ,I’ll be honest that doesn’t sound good. I’ve ordered the racing pure and opf delete from them ,instead of the jcr exhaust because of our exchange rate. Maybe I should cancel ,and just swallow the cost on the jcr.

which exhaust makers offer satisfaction guarantee and full refund in the first month if not happy with the sound? If JCR offers it I would be in. AWE did and I bought their exhaust for my 991.1 GTS and kept it two years. Shall we set up a group buy for JCR?

I agree, with valves open it sound ragged and obnoxious, valves closed a lot better.

Here in lies the problem, extremely expensive purchase based on a YouTube video with sound over computer speakers!

yea we should set up a group buy with jcr. I’d need the jcr opf delete as well. With our weak Canadian dollar ,the jcr system would run me almost 12k ,ouch!

A reasonable thing to do would be to chillax and wait a while. Then, when all the usual suspects have their exhausts out, pick the one you like.

There is no reason whatsoever to jump on the first available aftermarket exhaust, pay over the odds and get a mediocre result. There will be a deluge of options soon enough.

I told Jamie at Dundon in January if he needs a test mule he could use my car. Although I’ll be coming late to the party.

jcr is not cheap that’s for sure ,but they’re currently the only company that can unleash the full 718 4.0 potential. We should start a group buy!

For what it's worth, our pricing won't change for the life of the system. It's priced appropriately for the materials / hours that go into it as with all of our systems. This way there's complete transparency and no system / product we offer will ever seem disproportionately expensive vs another.

There will be a ton of options for sure, ours will be at the top end of the market due to the materials and philosophy which we apply to all of our products.

We feel choice is a wonderful thing but ultimately im confident that our offerings will always be seen as the the benchmark and the cost will be the deciding factor.

jcr sounds good on a phone speaker. Can only imagine how good it’ll sound in real life.
