All of this was more of a confluence of ideas and opportunities how it came to be, by this I mean that knew that I was going to do the OAP but it was long before JCR actually released theirs, in fact I had talked to Jonny about this and he had offered a test pipe in stainless so I could hear it, something we never got quite organized. At that same time I talked my buddy with a GT4 into buying this JCR system, in my opinion the best design for sound and volume, plus substantial weight savings.
The Canadian dollar is very weak against the GBP (1.75×), because of this and indeed no JCR OAP available back in July to order I looked for a substitute, the Akra link pipe in Titanium was a good alternative at an incredible price, still it took two different attempts through different channels to secure one and it only arrived just this week!
In between all of this waiting, a change of situation for my buddy with the GT4 arose that led me to agree to buy his JCR system, so it has actually been on the Spyder for a few weeks, and as of yesterday now fronted by the Akra pipes. Normally I would prefer a matching system, but as I said above this configuration was more about product availability and timing!
Today I have to be on good behavior , so I have yet to fire it up and go for a spin....

I ordered soul competition headers as my Xmas gift. I usually get socks and sweatpants, so I'm making up for past years. But in reality don't really want much, just some free time to play video games once my kids are asleep

Uncle, thanks for sharing this list, I thought that you might find it interesting that your wish for a Titanium Exhaust is shared by others!
As a kid and still a kid at heart I always found it tough to wait until Christmas morning, my wife knows this and told me that I could spend some time on Christmas Eve before dinner and open a present or two...
So without hesitation it was off with the old and on with the new!
Stainless Steel Porsche OEM PSE
Titanium JCR Silenced Valved Race Exhaust and Akrapovic Link Pipe Set (Inconel Rolled tips and Cargraphic valve controller not shown)

So far my wife bought me the full tech equipment package and a car cover...
Dealer gave me clear markers installed when I got the car.
Pretty sure I’m getting some driving gloves and detailing chemicals as well a ceramic coat.
I feel incredibly spoiled and haven’t been able to tell anyone!
