Oh, I’m sure there are plenty of brap brap options out there that’ll get you all the attention you need to feed the look-at-me dragon.

Cool video from CarsWithLuke of his 718 GT4 featuring our Titanium Silenced Valved Race Pipe and Black Ceramic Inconel Rolled Tips


It’s always tough to capture tone and exhaust sound on video but you can hear quite a nice difference here especially vs his older videos with stock exhaust

JC, can you elaborate on Luke's comment @ 3:44 that a ECU remap is required if the GPF is removed from the car? Is this true for Canada/US or only EU?

Lovely sound but I am glad I did order the Non Silenced Valved Race Pipe. Can’t wait to receive mine and share how it sounds in real life.
by the way, I am planning to keep the valves unplugged (i.e., open all time). Do you think it will drone?

This has been discussed ad nauseum. North American cars do not require a tune after GPF removal.

Not really, and if you are not interested then don't read what I am about to say...

I am not talking about that part of the program that monitors the GPF but rather any changes that may occur due to the reduction in back pressure and corresponding increase in flow. Even the non-active GPF units have internal structure that affects exhaust gas flow.

If the OEM programing can adjust for this change I was simply looking for confirmation from an exhaust manufacturer not an end-user.

Honestly...in the mod game, the first to the table are rarely the best. Wait for options form Armytrix, Akrapovic and Capristo before you jump. Can't go wrong with Supersprint either and they are available now.

Funny is that these 4 companies mentioned are the least popular in the Porsche community, especially in the American and European market.

Has anyone gone over 4,000 miles in the new GT4 or Spyder yet? I wonder how the exhaust sound evolves. On the GTS (T4) the sports exhaust really opened up after 4,000 miles, I had an S that sounded way better but had 8,000 miles when i bought it. When I bought the GTS the exhaust was very muted in comparison, but once over 4,000 miles it really changed and sounds way better now (same as the S). Obviously still a 4T but point being the sound really changed (for the better) and everything 'opened' up once it had been driven some. Just curious if anyone has seen this on the GT4/Spyder before rushing out to get an aftermarket solution from day one (in the US).

mine is 6.000kms and sounds Better each day. I bought and installed an Schmidt race silencer but inside the car is a horrible experience. I feel a fatal sound plenty of drones and really uncomfortable harmonics that are really annoying.

The worst part happens when the car is stoped at service temperatures with the engine idling and until 2500rpm. From that day, I’m happy Because I decided to cancel the sports exhaust button and I left the valves full opened all the time at any rpm. Sounds really good with the factory exhaust and silencer.
