After two days with the Sharkwerks bypass I have to say that all the hype was true, great mod especially for the price. No droning/resonance, barely louder than stock when cruising at 3k or less, but a nice increased growl when getting on the throttle, and especially at wot. Sound clips on their website are very accurate, imho.

Props to the entire crew at Sharkwerks for hooking mine up...would highly recommend to anyone looking for a little more life out of their exhaust system.

Thanks very much for the compliments Dave! It was good meeting you and we're glad you're enjoying the sound of the exhaust.

Hi Jason,
On the new Carreras, the stock center muffler has two independent pipes that each make a 180 degree bend and exit on the same side.

We really ought to just hack ours up at this point to show this...

Anyone do the install themselves? How much knuckle banging - hopefully not too much since these cars are brand spanking!

Alex - the dyno runs you show include the software flash or just the center muffler mod?

Thanks!

Hey Chris C, absolutely this is VERY much an easy DIY. We have full instructions that come with the kit and the nice thing is there's no need to remove the bumper or even have a lift. It's about 1.5 hours total and lot's of folks have been doing them DIY....

On the dyno, that's just for the bypass
