Maybe fabspeed should spend their money and time on R&D to figure out how to keep their $600 black chrome exhaust tips from rainbowing after just a couple of heat cycles instead of "analyzing" their competitions "flaws".

I actually enjoyed listening to him describe some of the features on the EuroPipe.
While it sounds good I am confident when I say it's way overpriced as is the Cristo.
The Fab speed on a friends 996TT sounds terrible however there X pipe sounds good.
Just my 2 cents

This thread and all the talk of the AM systems being overpriced makes me feel quite good about the used deal I got on my EP! (you know...the one with all the pins obstructing the gas flow through my CEL-triggering 100 cell cats).
Great stuff!
Great stuff!

My EP2 just arrived today - wasn't expected until Wednesday. LOL, t was already X-Rayed (by Customs). As others have mentioned, even the custom packing box is a work of art. I hope to get it installed next week along with a number of other bolt-ons I've gathered up. Can't wait!

I agree with the rest of you here that the fabspeed video was tacky, inappropriate, and misguided at best. But if we're going to scrutinize facts, I'd like to offer just one. While the sound of any exhaust is subjective, and drone to one might not be drone to another based on the frequency spectrum of the individuals hearing, when I installed my fabspeed x-pipe, the performance gain was unmistakable. I've probably run more 1/4 mile runs than most on this board, and the gains in 1/4 mile time was consistently .3-.5 tenths. This is about the same gain I see from adding race gas. So before you all pile-on to say fabspeed is junk, trash, no data, etc., make sure you have your own facts straight or you'll look just like the guy in the video.

Lmao at this thread. My only question is why does it sound like someone is getting shot every time the FB exhaust is revved out on the 991 turbo s video. Y'all are hysterical and Joe really sounds like an idiot.

Since the damage is done, we'll never hear a response from Fabspeed (there is nothing he can say for damage control) and EP has no reason to respond...it's only this forum that is perpetuating the discussion.

And this coming from the guy who always have something to say....
