Default Music to my ears- new Europipe EP1 install

I just picked up my car from the shop after getting my EP1 installed. It finely sounds like a proper sports car, it's great. It's not too loud and I can definitely notice a performance gain, less lag. My mechanic said the fit was perfect which is what I expected. Stef was great to work with, as expected. Overall, another satisfied customer.

My mechanic thought it was great. Great fit, easy to install. He liked the sound too.

I can definitely tell the lag has been reduced. In the right rpm range it's non existent. In general it seems to breathe a little easier.

I have never look back after installing the EP1 on my car. It truly brings justice to the aural presentation of the Porsche flat six.

Anyone located in the Southern California area have a 997TT with EP1? I would like to hear in person as well.

Here's a You Tube clip, comparing the stock exhaust sound with the EP1:

Congrats. No doubt an excellent exhaust for the TT!

Maybe on the next TT for me...

Hehe... I still love watching my own video... when I made it I couldn't find a nice A to B comparison so I hope it has helped others to assess what they could be buying... it's the best aural sex I've ever had
