Talking Custom-built 996 GT3 exhaust 321 stainless

It's in the mail. Getting car ready for Pete's Trackrat High-Desert Invitational DE/TT Oct 26-28.
At 27.5 pounds for full exhaust, it beats the stock exhaust at around 112 pounds.
Looking forward to getting this exhaust on and the car re-corner balanced, ride height adjusted, and aligned. Then test it at Pete's special three day track event.

That is NICE! Could you PM me how much that set you back? It's going to be loud.

Joe, you bring a smile to face every time you post that you are still using her as intended

Joe,
Will be worth the long wait. Post impressions after you calm down. Yes, will be bit louder than OEM and exhaust at stops will smell slightly different w/o cats.

Joe,

Nice set up. I would be interested to know where you got it and how much. Putting it on yourself?

25whp from 5500-7000 and 20whp everywhere else. No loss of power and 27.5 pounds for a full exhaust system. What's not to love.

Awesome. Would love to hear a sound track. In market for exhaust Figured better upgrade although more costly than the shifter cables I backed out. Also got third set of wheels. Forgelines. Steep slope

Let's hear it when u get it!

Burns collectors are always very nice. Are those Burns mufflers too? What diameter pipe into the mufflers? Tell Coast it looks like a great fab job.
