Default UMW Flash Installed

Just got the UMW flash installed on my 2005 TTS (93/94 Octane program), and WHOA

The power band is quite different and feels a lot more linear than before. I didn't push too hard since my front alignment is a tad off, but saw 1.1 bar without too much difficulty, I would think 1.2-1.3 should not be a problem.

Europipe is on its way, so can't wait to get that installed next week!

Kevin, thanks agan, fantastic job.

Excellent choice. Are you going to install it yourself?

Thinking about it, but ...

Last night, i had my Lexus snows put on at the shop, so my wife drove my Porsche home and in the process drove it over a curb in the parking lot. Prior to this, my car was spotless.

Damage - cracked side sill, mud flap, and left side undercarriage cover; gash in the fron wheel, and looks the alignment is slightly off. Porsche in Toronto just ordered the parts so I will be taking it in soon, so may just have them install the exhaust.

Doesn't sound like enough...I'd order some GT3 seats too.

Both Kevin (UMW) & Stef (Europipe) are class acts!! You will be very happy with your EP S2 Loud. Some think I’m crazy, but I polished the internal section of my EP oversized exhaust tips….adds that finished look.

How often do you wipe them down? It seems they would blacken up after each drive.

Dock, they only blacken on start-up. I wait 30-40 seconds after start-up, wipe each internal side with a damp cloth (about a 10sec job either side). I've only polished once and they still look great!
