Is There Any Exhaust Out There That......
#16
What about right and left bypass pipes without silencer but with valves as the cargraphic?
I ordered them for my gt3 and cargraphic say they would make some power difference compared to their rear muffler delete they will be lighter and there should be no drone.
If used with the rear oem muffler you will still get a difference in sound between open or closed sport exhaust.

We can't be talking about the same thing - 12k is too cheap.
I'm talking their full system with all 3 replacement mufflers and titanium exhaust manifold with high flow cats and cast-titanium merge collectors. I first saw it at GMG's open house in Feb, where the guy running Akrapovic USA was showing it. At that time, it wasn't ready for purchase.
I think it's something like 18k.

If someone is asking you for 18k (give or take), I'll be happy to sell you one for 15k.

Dude, I really don't care to be right, and certainly possible that I'm mistaken, but I seriously doubt that at that price, you're also getting the exhaust manifolds/cats.

I need a GT3 to dyno our valved side muffler bypass pipes. I think that may be your ticket.

As you wrote at the top of this thread, LAGinz, I'm not willing either to give up ANY of the performance I paid for just for more noise. My $.02.

^^ +1 - Good points Mike, something everyone should think about. I'd rather stick to stock on a car this expensive/complicated than go for something not fully tested.

To be clear, I did not start this thread because I am anti-aftermarket on principle.(The last 2 cars I had had aftermarket exhausts). In fact, all things being equal, I would like a little extra sound from the GT3. I'm also certainly not against people having different priorities than me, e.g. racers who don't care so much about the low end. But for me, the responses here have pretty much solidified what I had already gleaned from looking at a number of threads. I certainly remain open though to future testing and/or developments that might result in an exhaust that, based on testing, meets my performance priorities. And is legal in Cali

.... based on actual dynos, does not lose ANY low end torque or high end to the stock system with PSE engaged. In this regard I am not interested in butt dynos, engineering assumptions or the speculative benefit of future ECU tuning, which for me is akin to waiting for Godot. I am absolutely unwilling to give up one iota of the performance I paid for.

My conclusion is the distillation of all that others here have done and said is to leave the car stock. None of the offerings tried fully address the lack of sound inherent in the stock PSE below 4K. The sound issue appears tied to engine back pressure and hence performance which is not easily or inexpensively addressed by aftermarket offerings

Too nice for the underbelly of the car ...
