The best part of the SW was the upstarts.
That is my understanding and what I noticed at the Smokies event. I believe theGMG has the pop on the up shifts too. Refer to Lodi's post - I have heard some notice a drone with the GMG. I'm happy with what I have at this time but it is a personal decision.

I'm really curious to hear the RSS in person. Video that I saw sounded great tho! SW and GMG both sound great also. Personally, prefer the SW slightly, but that's only judging by vids. Love to hear them all next to each other in person.

I hope i am not repeating this question.

I currently have the valve unplug. I really enjoyed the much louder exhaust (below 4k rpm) but I lose the ability to turn it off. How does the SW or GMG (without valve unplug) compare in terms of quality and volume?

It's louder but you still get louder when the valves open around 4K and the SW is higher pitched than GMG. I have not (or if I did I didn't know it) heard one with the valves plugged. When I heard Money's car he had the side bypasses on.

Has anyone ever seen a dyno that directly compares Sharkwerks to stock? Thx.

Had the sharky on my car at the 48 Hours of Sebring this past January
and Trakcar who was there pitted paddock area inside T-17
comment it had the nicest sound of the 400+ P cars running including cups
All I can attest to as soon as I start her up the s.e. button is engaged every
time the tires roll !!
LOL aw thanks for the support fellas and TRACKCAR too!

All of these exhausts sound incredible. I miss my GMG dearly and they were fantastic during our smokies run. Sharkwerks also was awesome - it was such a symphony with all of them. I really don't know which way I'm headed with my new car - stock, GMG, side delete, other bypass. I had a buddy drive it the other night and I was in our 2012 Odyssey... before you do anything, you owe it to yourself to hear a stock GT3 under heavy throttle between 6000-9000 rpms. It's an eye opening experience.

I don't believe Sharkwerks makes any claims about hp or tq gains with their bypass.

And good for them for not doing so.

We would have heard a stock GT3 in that rev range had the driver giving the hot laps at Lime Rock actually driven the car. He was in too high of a gear each corner and you never got a feel for the sound of the car stock. It was a PTS green GT3 too. It was the IMSA pace car, not just the hot lap car.

Sorry my LA brother, but I could not disagree with you more. It is never better for the mfg. to provide the consumer with less, rather than more, accurate information about its product. My principal concern is that the Sharkwerks may LOSE some low end torque to the stock system with PSE, --and the lack of dyno results makes me suspect this might be the case. BTW, while Money did some Sharkwerks dynos, I do not believe he did a comparison with stock.

Curious why you suspect this might be the case?
