Here's some videos of some exhaust combinations I've experimented with using the EvoMS headers. I have some clips of the OEM headers with the RSS, SW and BBI bypasses, but there's enough videos out there already.

EvoMS Catless Headers
RSS X-Pipe Center Bypass
Stock Side Mufflers


EvoMS Catless Headers
JCR Titanium Superlight Center Bypass
Stock Side Mufflers


EvoMS Catless Headers
JCR Titanium Superlight Racepipe (Valved)

Yessir. Bought it 11 years ago and would be the last car to go if I ever had to liquidate.
Where in PHX are you? I lived in Peoria from 08-11. Friend of mine had a GT and was the first time I'd ever got a ride in one. I was determined to buy one someday but with a $hit job and the peak of the recession, I couldn't afford it at the time (they were high $100k's back then ).

Wow, love your collection. Basically what I’d want. And I agree, GT would be one of the last cars to get rid of.

Merry Christmas all!!

Ive had the following exhausts on my 997.1 GT3.
OEM stainless
-too quiet
OEM titanium center
-too quiet with slight tinniness
OEM titanium center with TPC valved side bypass pipes
-slightly louder but still too quiet with slight tinniness
Fabspeed center race exhaust with Fabspeed side bypass pipes
-awesome everywhere while driving hard.
-horrendous drone. neighbors complained. Too loud to talk on BT phone.

JCR titanium valved center with TPC side bypass pipes.
-my favorite! Light! Great sound! Valved for neighbors. I can talk on the phone. Drone very mild.


Youtube short on my old Fabspeed catback exhaust.
ill add another later with my current JCR setup.

I still argue that you cannot accurately capture the sound and you really need to experience in person.
Dundon v2 Street Headers ran directly into RSS Center Delete Pipe.
Car was already warm. Sequence of events: Startup, idle, switch to sport, 2500RPM, 4500RPM, 6500RPM, oops

Sounds fantastic, thanks for posting. Can't recall if you answered this already somewhere else but how's the drone with this setup?

It’s really hard to distinguish between these setups with a cell phone…they all sound similar to me. I tried to record the underpass this summer with my phone and the sound just isn’t translated easily.
