Default Vid of my RS with Fabspeed Valved Side Deletes

Took som various vids of the RS this morning as many have been asking for it. Really love these and the weight and heat reductions are an added benefit! Thanks to my 11 yo son for editing the video. Haha. Enjoy!

This is a superb video, many compliments to the chef!

Sounds fantastic, especially as you are climbing into the higher RPMs when it lets that awesome flat six wail come out

Sean posted up a review on the sound in the thread below.
https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3-...led-gt3rs.html

"Since getting my RS I've been exploring the options for exhaust - basically the options I considered were side deletes and center delete. I ended up deciding on side deletes because of the weight and heat reduction properties of it. Weight reduction was a bonus - the primary benefit to me was to get all of that heat out of the rear of the car / tires / etc. I landed on Fabspeed based upon the recommendation of this forum, the valves and their good reputation / presence on Rennlist.

The install was relatively straightforward. There are plenty of pics online of the bumper removal etc. It was basically the same process as the regular GT3. Remove bumper cover, remove heat shields and bumper bar, unbolt and remove center exhaust, remove side "suitcase" mufflers, reassemble. My 11 YO and I did it in the garage last night it took us 2.5 hours and was a wonderful bonding experience. This was the first time he's worked on the car with me where he has remained active and engaged the entire time. He was actually very helpful grabbing tools, holding things in place, etc. Made this install a lot of fun!

We fired it up around 8 last night - And there is an immediate difference in sound. A low rumble on cold start. Time to go for a drive! We drove it about 8 miles. First - there is slight drone when the engine is lugged at 1800-200 rpms when cold. When the engine warms, this exhaust has zero drone, and really sounds fabulous. I'm still getting used to the different sound below 2200 - I will say at low RPM's (below 2200 or so) the center delete options sound better. However, with this mod, there is zero valve transition, which makes it much more linear in sound and a very good thing. Above 2200, this thing just screams. You get a few little burbles on downshift / over run which were a nice surprise. In terms of sheer sound volume, this is 15-20 pct louder than stock. Not at all overwhelming and, in my mind, the perfect sound level.

I think it's a keeper - not too loud, no drone, weight reduction, heat reduction, valves functional and really great sound. "

Lol. It was loud no doubt. The town of Roswell is not particularly excited about such activities. However beyond the sound I really wasn't much over the speed limit as I was too close to my house and i do try to be friends with my neighbors

Also note our 3 week old 2017 Pacifica limited in the beginning. Worlds greatest family hauler! Unbelievable build quality, features and ride for the money.

Sean's son is as much an enthusiast as his dad! The video is ace.
