BBi Autosport 991 GT3 Exhaust Bypass
My apologies for your difficulty in finding more information about our products. In case if you have missed it, we just finished with our product catalog and became an official sponsor of the Rennlist forums so we will update the website shortly.
In the meantime, here is all the information that you might need about our BBi Autosport Porsche 991 GT3 Street Cup Exhaust:
BBi Autosport Porsche 991 GT3 / GT3RS StreetCup Exhaust Bypass
Shedding weight is one of simplest ways to add performance to your Porsche. Unfortunately, reducing weight on the already slim GT3 is rarely an inexpensive task and the factory exhaust system is already very well designed for optimum power delivery. The only drawbacks to the factory system is a muted exhaust note that was designed to comply with the local laws and appeal to a wide customer base, and the excess weight.
We addressed those flaws when we designed our exhaust system for the 997 GT3. Most other aftermarket exhaust systems on the market replaces the secondary center muffler and the performance gains and weight savings are minimal. The factory secondary exhaust weights approximately 20 pounds and the average secondary muffler bypass weighs approximately 7 pounds, which equates to only 13 pounds of weight savings.
We took a more unorthodox approach and bypassed the much heavier primary side mufflers. The primary mufflers are weigh approximately 44 pounds total while our bypass pipes are 4 pounds in comparison. For durability and protection against corrosion, each system is meticulously TIG welded using 304 aerospace grade stainless tubing with lower carbon content. The result is a substantial reduction in weight behind the rear axle which significantly improves handling and less restriction to produce a much more aggressive exhaust note.

Here it is but the mic might have been too close to the exhaust. You lose raspiness when you have the third muffler on but this is with the Cargraphic 200 cell headers and the Bbi side muffler delete.
I think the other video in the backroads was better but I didn't want to take another chance.

Yes, except for the center muffler which truely changes the character of sound to "muffled"! The best sound combination I had was 200 cell headers, third muffler bypass and vacuum line plugs. It was not loud enough so that's why I have the current setting. I need to hear the current setup with a third muffler bypass but I can't with the Bbi side deletes for some mechanical reason. I have little doubt that doing this would give the best combination of loudness and character but two things are holding me back: 1-it may drone 2-it may become too loud for my neighbors.
Headers and a center bypass are absolute best for DD.

Im pretty much looking for the most aggressive setup I can get while retaining cats...I really want the car to scream (or have some oomph down low in particular) and think that the car is WAYYY too quiet with just the sharkwerks bypass. I'm coming from a 10 gt3 RS that was headers back and sounded simply epic...so I'm looking for something similar. What would my best bet be? I don't really have any neighbors so I don't care much about that. Would love to retain use of the sport button if thats possible though...I realize this may be tough. Ideas guys??

Cargraphic side muffler bypass with vaccum controlled flaps
Third muffler bypass of choice
This would be the loudest that does not trip CEL while retaining sport button function. I have no idea whether it would drone bad or not, though.

200 cell Cargraphic (or other brand of choice) headers, with FVD O2 sensor spacer (if you plan to track ++)

Awesome, let us know how it sounds like if you do it. Also note this significantly reduced back pressure will likely decrease low end torque. No idea by how much and/or if discernible to non professionals.

doesnt matter too much to me truth be told, the car feels slow has anything under 5k RPM anyways. My new 16 won't be in for a few months (just specced it out) but Ill definitely check back. Im debating doing Regent Performance's product (completely titanium (may do inconel headers) for a complete solution as well...their stuff seems pretty on point.
