Default Fabspeed New 2009 997 Dual Style Tips in Development

We are getting close to finishing all the Fabspeed products for the new Porsche 2009 997. We are in the middle of the final R&D of the new Dual style tips that will be available for all 997.2 cars. We will implement the same internal V Split design as we use on our other tips which enhances the flow and does not restrict the ending exhaust gases.
The new tips are CAD designed with better internal flow then the factory tips for less backpressure and are fully designed with investment cast “lost wax T304 stainless steel, so there will be no piece by piece connection or welding points inside.
We are working hard and fast to get new products developed here at Fabspeed. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks, Alex@fabspeed

Below is a glimpse of the internal V CAD model and a some of the tip options were looking at.

Thanks guys, we will be offering them in a powder coated option and I believe we will be doing a black chrome also. Mdrums, we can also ceramic coat them for you if you would like for an additional cost. I will post pricing and information once the tips are ready.
Thanks,

So we finished a few sets up for test fitting and let me tell you, they look amazing. We have them in both polished and black chrome and I cant tell you how good they look and how much more aggressive they make the car look. I attached some photos and we will have them ready to ship by mid May but we are taking orders now. The tips on the white board are Polished and the tips on the car are the Black Chrome. PM or email me if you have any questions at all.

Thanks,
Alex@fabspeed.com

They do look very good. Would they fit the new PSE on 2009 911? would be nice to get rid of the "hot dogs".

These really do look great. I'm also curious whether these would work as replacement tips for the new PSE - anything to get rid of that hideous foreskin look.

Would these new tips fit with the Sharkwerkes Muffler Bypass System? Were they designed to fit like original tips or do they need adaptors/spacers, etc?
What is the cost of the polished and the black chrome? They look awesome!
Thanks for any info-Gary in Southern California

Here's the link to the latest photos of the PSE "foreskin" or "hotdog" review:

Looks clear that the fabspeed unit here won't fit, but the aftermarket should be huge (hint, hint to fabspeed!)

Hi guys, sorry for the delayed response. I have been under a car and running on the Dyno the last few days. The tips will not fit the PSE muffler because it uses a dual outlet pipe setup for each side so it will not work with that car, but we are looking into designing a set of tips for the PSE muffler.
Gary, the tips should fit Sharkwerkes bypass pipes just fine, as long as their designed to fit just like stock. Our tips are designed to fit just like the stock tips with the same bolts and hardware. The tips will be $550 for the polished and black chrome. We will have them in stock around mid May. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
