Been reading some great reviews and seeing some great PSE on/off comparison videos for the Sharkwerks bypass

i haven't found a video for the PSE on/off comparison for the FVD Brombacher bypass (which is a few hundred $$ more expensive)

has anyone experienced side by side between Sharkwerks and FVD bypass with the 997.2 (with PSE)?

thanks in advance

any mfg is the same thing, its just a pipe. There isnt any functional difference. I have had the sharkwerks and it does fit up good.

 

Cheers man! It really does sound need on those PSE based cars!

 

On this item I like the Sharkwerks design a bit better. Starting the GTS in the morning with the Sharwerks starts my day with a smile.

 

Aw thanks! I love it when folks rip by my window on the corner as they leave too

 

Looking at the pics of the FVD:


It's got some u-turn bends which would be a bigger restriction than our design:


We intentionally removed these type of restrictions because this is one of the reasons the factory system makes less power and is quieter:

 

thanks for the feedback, all!

i went with sharkwerks. their customer service has be outstanding so far with quick responses and attentiveness. can't wait to install this! Alan C. hope i get that same smile! cheers

 

Alan C,

Where did you obtain the bypass? Who installed? Cost?

I'm buying a 2011 C4S through the POV. Delivery probably next week...

Sorry, not enough posts to send you message direct.

Thanks

Sharkwerks and enjoy!

 

thanks

 

If you're doing it yourself go get your hands on a 13mm swivel socket ASAP. It is an enormous help (and a big time saver) with the top bolt.

 

thanks for the tip, Wanderingwheelz! it should arrive tomorrow, so this is good to know.

I do plan on a DIY installation. Don't have too much experience with exhausts, so hopefully i won't mess anything up. i didn't notice a DIY thread on this installation, but i plan to take pictures and doing a post-install writeup. any other tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
