Default GT2 Akrapovic Evolution Race Exhaust
Just got these pictures from my contact in Germany. This looks like an incredible system for GT2 owners.

Thanks for that....

Weird dyno, no loading on that, even the stock torque curve peaks at ~4500rpm instead of ~3000rpm...

I have enquired about the rear silencer, interesting to know what is different to the stock one ?

Doesn't Akrapovic make the stock unit? How is this one different?

Torque in my car feels like it peaks at least 3700 to 4000 rpm.

Mark that down as an F for reading comprehension.

The akra has 100cels cats VS 400cels stock and titanium headers, maybe a slightly more free flow silencer.

I believe stock is 600 cell....100 cell will set off the check engine light unless there is some computer programing.

a cheaper way to get a nicer sound is to remove the cats. i've done it and made a slight modification to the o2 bungs. if ur at eurofest on the 19th i'll be there in my 997 gt2 and i'll show u how.
