Evan: thanks for reminding him, just forget him.

I don't even understand why he has to make this kind of comment in my other thread

"Holy $hit! (pun intended) are you old enough to drive?!?

I thought I was young having worked smart enough to buy myself a Cayenne Turbo at 26, but DAYUM! Must be nice

When I was your age (16-18?) I was allowed to borrow a crappy 1990 Jeep Cherokee 2 door from my parents when I needed to drive somewhere."

I have no clue what Deetz is smoking
That's assuming that you feel Fabspeed products are what they say they are. Not sure if anyone else is offering the cat bypass for the Cayenne so your limited if this is the mod you want. Personally I find Fabspeeds performance claims a bit over the top. And just because someone drives a Porsche or Ferrari doesn't mean they have they skills to determine what really works. I know alot of P and F car owners that have replaced their stock exhaust with a louder version which in their mind equals better performance. Unfortunately there's alot of misinformation out there.

Message to clear up hearsay.!

Our Cayenne and VW Touareg V8 2ndary catbypass pipes ADD significant power, better gas mileage, better noticeable throttle response and muscle car sound WITHOUT ANY NEGATIVE AFFECTS whatsoever.

NO check engine light
No resonnace 100% TRUE
===========================

There are 4 cats on all Cayennes. The 2nd set is to make the car ultra quiet. The car is built like a fortress and tank...........with our catbypass pipes and exhaust...........the car is so well insulated and strong that even a 6 month old can sleep perfectly when you or the wife are driving. However, when you floor it................it sings and makes exotic sounds.
======================
No more pot shots.
Power is #1 easily and cost effectively gained by ditching the 2nd set of catalytic conevrters. Anything else is %100 secondary and contray to actual and empiracle data.
Have a great day
Joe

It's like magic. By adding "Techart" to a hollow bypass pipe, the price doubles.

Suckers are born every minute and people obviously buy them otherwise Techart wouldn't be in business.

Just because it costs the most, doesn't mean it's "the best"

Your guess is as good as mine mudman

Hi Mike !!!

The skid plate I had on the S was dealer purchased and installed for like $800 at the time , so no install pics. There is a tsb showing the process on Renntech (you probably know that already). Looks like a pain in the ****. Maybe a project for next Spring. Air filters and cat bypass pipes are the last mods this season for the new ride. Take care.

Chris
