Mas updates por favor, Alex?

I like the fit on that blue GT3 with the center exhaust on the 1st page, very neat (even though it will probably roast the license plate frame). The Europipe looks nice, but the center exhaust is sweet. I just want to see this car spank some 997's on the track.

I wish I could hear the Europipe in real life. Looks like a nice system. But the built quality, from the pictures, are just so-so.

Say what? It's one of the best built systems on the market.

Talking

hahahaaa well... I guess I am used to seeing exhaust pipes on motorcycles. The quality in motorcycle exhausts are meant to be exposed so the attention paid in craftsmanship is really awesome.

I believe you have done more homework on 996 GT3 exhausts than I, so I'll take your word for it and hope to see and hear the Europipe one of these days.

Perhaps I need to go to Willo even this Monday.

Yes sir

Here's some pictures of the roll bar by Tony@TC Design...




Out comes the engine...


and we'll be changing that pulley for sure

You can see the intake manifold is quite different to the updated 997 GT3 one (more of a single piece design).



Time to start stripping her down...





Time to play with ze cams!

Built quality is the best, you can only equal it but not better it. I have experience with these guys and I am totally impressed with what they produce. Never heard anybody complain about their system. Super nice guys to top it off.
