Took me a couple days to read all this and soak in the pics and video. This is an inspiration for me this winter. Absolutely outstanding, your own fab pieces are amazing. A great read, better than any magazine article!

Congratulations on a masterpiece.

So my first hiccup - wouldn't start once I got parked at the soccer fields - thought at first it was the battery - but maybe it's my starter - I put my battery charger on last night and checked it this morning with my manual charger and it showed fully charged.

I get a click (pop) from the starter but it won't turn. I was able to push start it last night. Thankfully to get it home.

got the exhaust finally finished - had to trim the bumper a little and fix the prior cut out - so it's off.



repacked rear bearings today as I was getting a little driveline noise coming back from Dunedin - and need to readjust my shifter.

997 front exhaust

so with minimal effort - works/fits pretty well with the B & B exhaust - fits under the rear valence - and as Shakinjoe says - it SHOULD sound like a 911.

It's definitely a quality piece - stainless steel.

Thanks for the positive comments...

Very interesting. Can you measure the width of the muffler?

It sounds great and it looks (from the outside anyways) like the internal pipes are set up like they should be. I wonder what the inside looks like?!

Those rear light clusters look interesting. What are they? Where did you get them from?
