patrat,
We intend to do this...... but us poor people here in the North East have about 2 feet of snow right now. So soon as the roads are a little more accommodating, we will be getting some in-car, drive by and more out side pics, sounds and movies! Also Dyno, in-car real time data and the weight savings will be posted.
We did take 4 videos last night but they came out too dark... otherwise I would post one.
2Tight,
We are avid enthusiast and take a great amount of pride in what were are doing.
We have really tried to build the best quality item possible........ we have taken the time and put in the effort to make our products some of the best available.
The cat back will retail around $685.
The sound clip does not do the exhaust justice....... the sound clip was taken on a Sony digital camera so the quality is not great.
A few Porsche/951 folks who we know attended last night and were smiling from ear to ear when we fired it up!
For an otherwise stock car, our cat back added a true rumble with an even mellow note... it is louder than stock but not a considerable amount.
The comments made were "this is how a Porsche should sound"
I will soon post a release date and start taking orders soon.
Cheers,
Paul R

I own a 1987 944S with only internal engine modifications.
Are your carbon intake parts available for only the 951?
I am mainly interested in the intake parts you mentioned earlier,
but, your carbon hood and door skins have caught my attention too.
Any warranty information on these parts?
Best Regards,
Ben Goldstein

Hello Neil,
Its certainly something we can consider...... if there is a particular part you are looking for let me know.
We have accounts with large race/motorsport warehouse and wholesale stores...... they carry almost any brand name you can think of.
So I may be already set up to get these products...... let me check.

Well folks, you cant rush quality or R&D.................testing and tweaking takes a lot of time.
We have products ready and could quiet easily be selling them.... but unlike most vendors we like to fully test, fit and dyno or products before we put them on sale.
We do not intend to rush anything and sacrifice quality and hard data...... that's the whole point of us being in business, to offer service and parts above and beyond what is already on the market.
We will be adding a WBO2 / data acquisition system and a GPS based in-car telemetry system in the next few days.
More additions will be made to the site once we return from the Club race at Sebring.
Sorry for the wait......

After reviewing, testing and running some of these systems we found there is a big difference between unit to unit.
The unit we will be carrying is certainly to most comprehensive unit on the market and came highly recommended by some of the top level guys in the tuning field.
It has about 80% accuracy of an actual dyno setup and can work along side other electronics/data logging apparatus.
The unit has 5 internal sensors that capture Manifold Air Pressure (MAP or Boost), Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) or Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT), RPM conversion (from a tach signal or inductive clamp), Acceleration, and Injector Duty Cycle (or Dwell). The internal MAP sensor is a 3-bar absolute pressure sensor, providing accurate data up to 44.1 PSIA. The temperature measurement circuit features a K-type thermocouple. The internal accelerometer features 2 axis measurements for a variety of mounting options. Can also be linked into a GPS system.
Basically this is a complete 6-channel, 44-minute performance tuning and data acquisition system, with self-calibrating circuitry that also compensates for changes in temperature, altitude, and sensor condition...... all of this will retail for less than $600.
And yes, there is round gauge that could be mounted in a side pod.

I'm going to assume this is the Innovate Motorsports LMA-3 you're describing? I have one very important question about their injector duty cycle logging: have you used this feature on a 944/951 yet?
The reason I ask is on their site they state it works with all high-impedance injectors and *some* low impedance injectors. I'm interested in buying the LMA-3 but only if it will work on my car.
