Default Techart 997.2 exhaust on eBay - check it out

I found this on eBay, looks like a FANTASTIC product, look at the material quality... wish I had a 997.2!

Someone should pick this up!

Looks nice, but i rather get the Tubi for $3440 from sharkey , and that includes the crossover pipes.

Looks like a "different" design. I believe it does away with the center pipe by keeping the exhaust all on one side. (Look at that entrance pipe... looks like it should connect direct to the header.)

Tubi has electronic control for switchign modes too? This looks like a perfect alternative to PSE!

no the Tubi is not switchable.
No center pipe seems interesting.

That one is only for the .2.
For the .1 the intake to the can would have to route to the location of the cats.

Tubi do make a PSE replacement exhaust but only for the 997.1 system:

PSE compatible Tubi

Very shiny indeed
but
i wonder why they chose to not connect the two banks?
They may be a much better design for exhaust scavenging or they may be a much worse design.

Too many $$$$$$$$$ for me to be an experimenter.

It sure is pretty. Can't comment on the design. It is odd that's for sure.
I never understood why folks accept paying for shiny bits that never get seen once installed.
Let's face it.. polishing is not free.

Well, it's Techart! I think they're the most reputable Porsche mod company out there, it sure looks fine and I am 100% sure it should be as good as any other aftermarket and with the flap, it's better value (msrp $5800!).

PS. I am not selling this btw, I just came across it looking for 997.1 exhausts!

I would not say that Techart is the "most reputable Porsche mod company out there."
