Dyno today will try and get the graphs posted up in the next day or so.
Very nice gain in HP even with no software..
Unlike most tuners who mask there hardware with software.. We develop the hardware to make power first .
Video and sound clips also coming in the next day or so.

Tips look great, but they are too big. They are too close to the carbon. Those things get hot. Real hot. I had my tips melt all the plastic on my 08 GT2. They need to clear that stuff by a half inch.

Thanks for the heads up. The video may not give the best view but you do have about 1/2 top and bottom. The tips are also double walled which I am sure helps with heat protection. But it think Fabryce can give some more input on the tips and heat damage to the carbon. Fabryce can post some input.
Oh on a side note the gt2rs has a lot of road noise from the back. With the exhaust change the road noise is reduced. I can only theorize that the titanium box in the factory system resonated the road noise. The stainless must not do this.

^I agree. Part of the problem was our install. The clamps couldn't withstand 200 mph heat pouring out heat and the would loosen. The melting happened due to proximity. The point was to make sure of really good and equal clearance. Their exhaust is awesome but the install is important as well.

Install is key to ensure that the tips are installed and spaced properly.
The good thing about the GT2RS is that it has more clearance than the GT2.
In addition the facia around the tip itself is carbon and carbon is VERY resistant to heat and much more resistant that the injected plastic on the standard GT2.
So with the GT2RS there are absolutely no problems we with heat affecting the carbon trim.
