Thanks for the kind words CRex and glad you like the exhaust
On the tips as Dan had mentioned I think unfortunately for the black ones you got one of the sets back from when we were having them made from _mild_ by RSS which hasn't been the case for some time. I'll send you some proper SS ones in black and those never have any issues. On the Ti tips it's just a nature of how titanium reacts with heat. They will/do always change color with heat... even the factory ones will. Any exhaust from Ti on other cars will do the same. I know we mention it on the site/product page but I'll make it clearer for sure

I'm taking delivery of a new RS next month and will email you offline to get the bypass... Heck it seems I'm eating my words and starting to mod the car before the wheels even rolled off the factory floor...

Alright alright I rest my case... I've always had a weak spot for fellow petrolheads and you guys are as good as they come

My friend Mooty forgot I had my solenoid wired to hold flaps closed all the time in order to pass sound with Akrapovic Evolution full system. Otherwise 107 sweet, meatball worthy, db's.
Having played the moronic LS exhaust game and dodged (and sometimes hit) the damn rigged up exhaust pieces as they fell off on the track, I am swearing off sound limit days. Running unlimited sound there, at what ever price for the respective event is worth it.

You can put all the tips, mufflers bypasses ect on these car, but without doing something with the catalytic convertors the cars will not make anymore power. no matter what anyone says.

I dont think anyone expects (claims, or says) a bypass + tips have any positive (or negative) effect on the engine output, its mostly for sound and weight reduction...

RSS is more of an Xpipe design
GMG and Sharks are great too.
I woud call bbi autosport and look at their header and exhaust package for the .2RS.. I heard it the other day and it was the best sounding exhaust I have heard.
The only other one I heard that sounded as good was a caragraphic system from RSS.
But I like the custom and craftsmanship of the bbi one and they are all made in house too!

911S4: "Anyone have experience with the GMG titanium bypass as the megaphone design looks interesting? I am curious on the pricing as well. Thanks for all the input!"
+1 again on the Sharkwerks bypass. No problems with the tips & use the simple solenoid bypass (I think I'll side with 'lawjdc" and also get the AWE downturn tips just in case. Sure hate to be w/o an appropriate band-aid.

ps: any other mods to your car that I should know about? I would hate to fall behind in the arms race! Happy new year to you and yours.

Which would sound closest to OEM sound character and pitch (only louder) side deletes (ie Soul valved) or center Sharkwerks? 2007 GT3RS
