You guys won't be unhappy. Re the backpressure sensor, I believe it works through the primary and secondary o2 sensors. But the ecu will pull timing if backpressue is reduced.

No problem. PM sent.
Thanks Chris.
From what I have come to understand, the ECU does not monitor back pressure.
Boost pressure and exhaust temperatures are monitored.

If that's true then that sucks. I was hoping to just get an exhaust first to see my gains before I do a tune.

Rep Power: 172 However, I can tell you that you *will* need to get a tune to get the gains out of a new exhaust, but for different reasons...

Rep Power: 172 Hopefully, we'll be upping the ante a notch or two by the end of month.
I'm afraid I can't explain more now, but I will keep you guys updated with the results when we get them.

Just a small update...
The exhaust has reached Kuwait! (Wow! Kudos Fedex! Shipped Friday, reached Monday!)
It is under customs clearance. There is a slim chance that the exhaust will clear and I get my hands on it between today and tomorrow.
If that's the case, I will have a thread with plenty of pictures.
Otherwise, I am out of town starting Wednesday for 10 days and things will have to wait until I come back.

Rep Power: 172 Couldn't agree with you more about Stef! People like him enhance our Porsche experience tremendously!
Example:
Went to the office this morning and checked my email only to find an email from Stef in which he actually went to the Fedex tracking website, found that the exhaust actually reached Kuwait, took a screen snapshot and forwarded it to me!
He's actually taking the time to track the shipment!
(For the record, I was tracking it many many times per day
)
