New to me 991 turbo
Hey Group - new member here. A couple months ago I purchased a CPO 2015 911 Turbo. GT Siliver with red interior. I've had manuals over the years but this car is to be a GT car 1st, so PDK (although a bigh change) was the choice - but so far, I love it!
I've driven it less than 400 miles but could tell I needed more sound. Based on the comments on this forum I contacted Sam at By Design and orded headers, 200 cell cats and the exhaust. Sam was wonderful to work with and answered all my newbe questions. I installed the system by my self on my back in the garage - with the rear body work on. I think that decision added hours on to the swap and I would recomend removing the body work to anyone wanting to do this project on their own.
I've only driven it a short time on a shake-down run but I'll post my impressions of the system when I get to enjoy it for an extended period.

Did Sam do a tune for you to go with the new headers/cats/exhaust? That's were your going to pick up your real power...

That may be step two - at this point I just want a more aggressive exhaust note.
