Muffler Bypass

I have these as well. If you can handle the extra noise it provides a bit more power (claimed by Fabspeed though not very noticable s.o.p.) but definitely lighter weight in the rear (50lbs. reduction). When combined with Euro GT3 race buckets, a total reduction of 100lbs from stock. The lightweight RS flywheel/clutch combo is also very recommended(another 15-20lbs reduction). We all know that lighter weight makes for better handling. Many other weight saving mods are available in this car but I'd recommend the above most.

That is about 20,000 dollars. But it is for the mark1 GT3, you have a mark2.

3.9 kit

Neil,

Does my car need to be shipped overseas to do this upgrade?

3.9 kit

Thanks. I'll check out the website for more info. This will be a good option to consider if I don't opt. for the 997 based GT3 or 2.
I've been hearing very good things about PSI.

That is the part # for one of our MK 1 Kits.

We have a MK2 kit which is the same kit used in our GT-3 RS that won the Tuner Grand Prix. This kit makes 450 HP and is a complete kit including Full exhuast and ECU tuning. We have several authorized installation centers around the country let me know if you want some more information on the kit

Have a nice day

Who does the 3.9.. kit install and engine work?

Do they do any head work?

is it done in the US?

Is there any kind of warranty?

Has there been any done in North America?
and if so what rwhp did it make...or what would we expect to gain at the rear wheels?

Better yet ...when they dyno these 3.9 kits...how much more hp is there over stock?

Can we see a 3.9 dyno sheet overlapping the stock numbers?

MODDING A GT3

Hello fellow 6 Speeders,

I have just installed the Manthey 410 Power Kit on my personal GT3 and it is incredible. The mid range power has increased and the torque by 14 foot pounds. If you want useable power both street and track this is a great kit and the sound is glorious.

Best thing is that the original onboard diagnosis are not affected.
NO LIGHTS TO TURN OFF!!!

I can arrange test drives in Southern California and will be happy to answer any questions as I am the Manthey Distributor for the West Coast.
