Now that I am back in the land of the living and have turned my TT into my daily driver (Cayenne was totaled) - I might actually be able to look around a little...
Looking goood mate - we should try for the next Track corp day!

Dude,
Are they By passes? So your car is as obnoxious as mine now???
I have a set of real TURBO S mufflers and tips and know of another set of tips of your interested ? I have (Ithink) sold the mufflers and tips - but I know of another set of just tips (Easy to modify the standard cans) that are NEW.... and Not $1800.00!!!
Let me know,
Simon.

not by-pass
Simon,
I was getting break down of the CPU in the Motronic at high revs. PRT were baffled by it and it looked like I was going to have to go to Fitzy in Victoria to get it sorted. It was stealing a good 30-35kw off my score and making me sad. You couldnt really feel it through the pedal but there were things the car should have done and just wasnt. At the shakedown run at Wakefield, there was a particular Evo that had been built for rallying and was very light and very high HP and if I came onto the main straight behind him in a lower gear and held the revs high, I could not catch him in the length of the straight but if I came on a gear higher and used the torque, I would catch and outrun him easily. The ECU was shutting down power at high revs and thats the result. I spoke to the guys at Fitz in Vic and it seemed that there may have been a leak in the air control either inwards or outwards and it needed to be traced. Found a few leaks on both sides but then found that the exhaust system which was standard 993 TT was choking the last few KW out of the system. Dynoed with by-pass and dynoed with the new smaller tails and modified standard mufflers and the by-pass was upsetting fuel/air flow again. There is a thread on here somewhere about the muffler mods but basically means removing the intneral tubing and allowing the box to fill with gas and flow out at the optimum rate given expansion and blah blah blah........the twin tailpipes are welded to straight collector/expansion box of about 75mm length. It is still way quieter than yours but seems to work well.......feels more grunty now.....going to go to that practise day at OPGP and see what times I can get.
