Default Shark Werks 997.2 Center Muffler Bypass

Can you see the smile on my face, ear-to-ear grin?!! Just drove home after having the Shark Werks center muffler bypass installed. It RIPS!!

The GTS sounds like a sports car now. A little more rumble at normal throttle and without PSE. Screams with the PSE and on the loud pedal. I can see my mpg's dropping just so I can listen to this concert.

Being new to the 997GTS, many here have advised me to have this installed. Glad I did it. If you've been thinking of it, DO IT. DO NOT DELAY!

Thanks to Alex, Dan, and, especially, James for taking care of me on short notice.

Sharkwerks has no equal in customer satisfaction!

It's crazy how many people have commented on how "sporty" my car sounds with the PSE + Sharkwerks bypass. It adds so much to the experience, do not hesitate to do it!

Well, yeah, but to expand. They love the brand and are enthsiasts and because of these two characteristics they treat you and your car more like a friend than a client. I'd be willing to bet that Alex, in one of his more reflective moments, can't beleive that he has been able to turn what he loves to do into a profitable concern - and with the added benefit of interacting with fellow enthusiasts (from someone anonymous like me to Jay Leno).

(And I have a center muffler from Sharkwerks as well. It wakes up a somewhat dull PSE on the 997.2 DFI engine. So, I suppose this is more of a testimonial than a comment.)

I very much enjoy mine and agree that the Sharkwerks interaction/customer service is top notch.

Very nice...enjoy!

This mod has been on my to do list and I guess that it is time that I move forward.

A couple of questions:

1/ How much was the install? (My 997 has PSE if that matters.)

2/ Does anyone know whether this mod effects the CPO warranty???

Cheers!

1. One to one and one-half hour install time
2. Didn't ask, don't want to know.

You're a brave man, Joe. You sound like me but SWMBO asked so I need to find that out...
