Nice Steve! Looks great.
I'm getting my SOUL side deletes and 100 (actually think it's 101?) mm tips installed this week. I'll post photos here after it's done.

Thanks for the detail and pictures, Steve. Did you notice any difference in sound with the 88mm tips? Figured possibly more sound, but I am sure it would not be that noticeable.

no difference at all. ... caveat; my hearing may have been "modified" back in my head-banging dayz of the 80's hair bands

If you look closely at the pics above, especially the "Comparison #4" close-ups,... I see that the exit ports of the Sharkwerks bypass are 68mm (oval). I suspect that those port exits are what substantially affect the output sound & level.

Looks good!

Mine came with the 88mm SW’s as well, and I have a set of the stock Ti ones stashed in the basement with the center muffler.

Personally, I think the 88 mm ends look proportionally better on the .1.

Also bought a set of the SW 88mm tips in the Black Friday deal, excellent service from Alex. Haven’t had a chance to fit yet so thank you for the pictures, confirms it’s the right purchase.

No change in sound with tips that I've noticed having tried stock, 88mms and 100mms. JBO

Nice work Steve. I do believe the 88mm will be large enough for me now that I see these. Also, since Bill has confirmed my old tips were 88mm's that seems to be the ticket. PS. Those stamped steel OEM tips are not real attractive!

Does Sharkwerks still make the 100mm tips for the 997 bypass? I only saw 100mm tips available on the 991 platform.
