Default FABSPEED MOTORSPORT | GT3 OEM Center Muffler Reinforcement

The GT3 Muffler Reinforcement Brace is designed to extend the fatigue life of the factory muffler. The OEM muffler’s metal skin fractures due to an “oil can” effect. The varying internal pressures generated by the exhaust gases cause a repeated expansion and contraction leading to a classic fatigue failure. The Fabspeed brace is designed to reduce the magnitude of this deflection resulting in a longer service life. This small modification can save you a trip to the dealer and potentially $2500 which is the cost of replacement for a factory OEM Muffler.



Comparison photo of a Porsche OEM Center Muffler and an OEM Muffler that blew out the rear panel and caused $5000 of damage to the wiring and plastic pipes on the back of all GT3 engines from the 1200 degree exhaust heat that acted like a Blow Torch to the engine from a simple muffler blowing out.
  • Fits all Porsche OEM center mufflers on all 997 GT3/GT3RS, 997.2 GT3/GT3RS, 991 GT3/GT3RS, 991.2 GT3/GT3RS and 911 R cars world wide.
  • 11 gauge T 304L stainless steel construction- works with both stainless steel and titanium Porsche center mufflers.
  • Simple slip-on installation, designed to mount using the factory GT3 center muffler straps to the back of all Porsche OEM GT3 center mufflers.
  • Designed to greatly improve the longevity of the OEM Muffler by preventing metal fatigue and also stop 1200 degree exhaust gas in the event of a muffler failure from damaging your car.
  • All Fabspeed Performance Products are backed by the Fabspeed Lifetime Limited Warranty

Nick brought in his 2016 GT3 RS to have our recently developed GT3 Muffler Reinforcement installed. Nick has replaced two factory mufflers, due to damage from the expanding and contracting of the factory muffler. With the Fabspeed GT3 Muffler Reinforcement installed, it will prevent any future damage by reinforcing the weak points on the factory system.

Cool product. I have something similar on my OEM gt3 muffler, but it comprises two plates that are welded to the top and bottom portions of the back of the muffler.
