I actually thought about that! My friend has a GTS done exactly that way and I don’t wanna copy him too much haha.

I believe the others have a higher pitched sound throughout the rev range.....

Hi James-GMG, I have an older gmg bypass sitting around which I'm probably going to mount. But I think I read somewhere you have developed a new version? Can you tell us a little about the differences?

There is about 1/4 of an inch in the extension of the rear tip on the new 991.2 vs the 991.1.....but both will work.

Hi guys. Thanks for this post, always fun reading what people are doing, and planning to do with their toys!

As for us. Here’s what i can guarantee, first of all i am a car guy just like everyone else. That’s why i started this biz. Secondly, this isn’t my money maker, i started this due to my passion for the cars, and the quality of service that i had been provided so many times as a buyer. It frustrated me how poor it was, it angered me getting ripped off, and i wanted to change that. At least for my small section of the world that cared and wanted change too! I’ve dealt with all the dealers, some chiming in on this post, and i know the goods and bads. I’ve had parts stolen from some, I’ve had great experiences with some, I’ve had it all. So have you!

With GRP you’ll get nothing but the best service, honesty, and a hell of a good product. Whether it’s a cobranded item, something we make in house with our Indycar fabricators and carbon techs, and a part we may sell, it will be the best. If it’s not, i won’t sell it.

Our exhaust sounds amazing, it’s very high quality, sounds great at low RPMs and High. I know for a fact everyone here will love it, and you’ll love the service we provide even more! Enjoy guys, Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!

Highly recommend Rahal Exhaust. I’ve only used Sharkwerks on all my cars in the past, but was open for a change. Couldn’t be happier, my GT3.2 sounds absolutely stunning now. The low end growl is just amazing. I’ve fired it up for some friends/family who aren’t even die hard car guys, they were floored by the sweet sounds! Get one, you won’t be disappointed. I sadly don’t have any video, I’m not a techie.

I have one on order. I figured give it a shot. I will be putting my RSS X-pipe up for sale( will be a steal for any one interested and it is a very good bypass). The problem is we have snow/salt on the ground so car is done for the Winter and will have to wait a couple months to swap it out. Any one have a Spring car delivery drop me a PM if interested. I have decided to go a different route and may combine GRP bypass with GMG LT headers.- I think this combo may be what i am looking for. Will not delete side mufflers.

Reach out to James at GMG for his bypass, he will work with you. The GRP is a rebranded BBI system and a rip off of GMG. I have purchased numerous exhausts from James and always a great experience, and I always deal with him the owner of GMG.

GMG makes great Product and they have always been very responsive. Hence, my interest in their Headers. But no need to be accusing other people of stealing designs. I may prefer a product from one Supplier over another but no reason to throw a Vendor down.

Fair enough, but my I ask: why do you prefer the GRP over the GMG bypass ? I think this is a fair question.
