Default Dach X Pipe

Does anyone know how to get hold of Chris Dach? Having some issues installing an X Pipe I bought from him a few years ago and need some instruction/advice. Getting email rejections on the address I used to communicate with him previously. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Have you sent him a PM or an email through Rennlist? His user name is 993inNC.

Updating all my old threads. Wanted to give a shout out to Chris Dach. Even though he's not in the business anymore, he spent a lot of time giving me installation advice. Finally found a shop that installed without incident. Chris is a GOOD GUY!

Set up with no cat, X-pipe, Fister Stage II and Darin's tips...pretty loud at start up and around the neighborhood, but it sounds great. Best of all, no drone on the highway.

Not to open a can of worms but is your setup the type that could benefit from that $1000 ecu to remap?

I think our setups are pretty similar

I love it the way it sounds. Loud when you want/expect it...not loud when you don't want/expect it.

Now that your exhaust has less restriction can you add more air & fuel to get more power? A programmable ecu would be required.

Thanks for the clarification Christian. Actually, I probably have more restriction now than before, as I had a Fabspeed RSR header muffler system. I have currently have a Steve Wong ECU designed for LWFW application installed. Also have old Fabspeed and OEM ECUs. I must admit that I haven't looked at changing ECUs based on the new exhaust. Probably would require a dyne and custom programming. Other priorities prevail for the time being. Next investment is going to be RS skirts and/or a rear seat delete/RS carpet kit!

About the same as last time we chatted about it
I have a Boxster track car now that took my resto budget ......then blew the motor now my budget is really BLOWN!!
I did work on getting the doors back together the other night. Just have the pass roll up window and door lock to do and both are done and it'll be a complete roller! Then it's electric and fuel and brake systems.......I'm on the 10 year plan
