exhaust setup? I belive it's just a rss center muffler bypass?

Never need to see another 997 GT car review for the rest of my life. Why? Because they've been reviewing the car for 17 years. It's old news.

Speaking of videos. We need a clip of your exhaust setup

I'd getting new tips made and they should be here this afternoon or tomorrow. My neighbor is a welding teacher and is making them in between teaching classes. Or maybe he's having his students make them.

I'm tip less right now.

I liked that video. Thanx for sharing. I've been following Alex's build of this car (albeit publicly, since I do not know him personally) and this is the route I'm going with my 7.1.
A great touring car: analog, perfect size, no roll bar so luggage and doggo or clubs in the back, occasional track day (where I remind myself to NOT go 11/10th's, and stick around 7-8/10th's)

the 997 is still the best car I've ever driven, IMO. Blessed to be able to steward one for years to come. Am I "flipping it"? someone asked me, "Well, I'm flipping amazed every time I drive it" 😎

The tractive suspension he developed on that .2 will be going on my .1 for Alex to develop so he can offer it for other .1s. So stay tuned.

The .2 is almost done, then he will take mine for awhile to develop it for the .1s. I'll post something once we start the project so others can follow along.
