540 miles of road covered with buddies (my 991.1 TTS, two 997 4S, one 997 S, and a Jag F-Type). SF Bay Area through Sonora Pass to Bridgeport. Then return via 395 and 88. Mostly curves!!!! 😀

The other slight grumble is that the two pipes on either side are sort of dwarfed by the openings in the OE lower fascia, leaving unsightly gaps. I bought this system used so it's possible there's a filler or backer piece I've missed. Having said all that, it still looks better than the Mercedes-esque OE tips.
I have the Fabspeed Supersport X-Pipe exhaust on my .2 TT, and I had a similar issue on mine. Ended up being my tech didn't have it 'flat' or vertical correctly on the factory muffler bracket, so once he addressed that, it looks a ton better.
However, we still had to use an aftermarket clamp and bolts solution to make the cats and tips stay on properly- the factory items were very floppy.

Hope you got it fixed, it bugged the crap out of me!

Wait, ... that doesn't look like a Porsche crest.

Jealous. I did the drive up to Vancouver last year, loved every bit. The drives around Vancouver were awesome too.

Glad you like the traffic here....

Went to Anacortes this AM and scrubbed in the new skins, ready for the run, and yeah, I'm really looking forward to it, even though I'm not taking either turbo.

Hello everyone, for those who know @KONG991TT - I bought his 991 Turbo a few months ago. I have made a few changes to it since then - both engine mods and exterior.

Exterior:
> Front aero kit
> Removed the PPF and polished the car, then reapplied a Full frontal PPF and Ceramic Coated the rest
> Porsche Crest Stripe on the hood
>.Litespeed Racing wheels
> Painted rearview mirrors, door handles and rear spoiler in black
> "Por4mance" side decal
> Ceramic window tint (the heat in SC is brutal on black interior)
> Tinted LED Side Markers
> LED Matrix headlights
> Ceramic coated the entire outside trim

Engine Mods:
> Soul Sport Cats
> 68mm Turbos
> Reinforced PDK Trans mount
> Tune
> and a few other misc things (plugs/coils, air filter, etc.).

Before pic

This pic was taken shortly after I bought it.



After

Headed out to Ale and Octane

At Ale and Octane in Charleston, SC
