    Interesting - I wonder if Porsche believes that the failure was partially due to revving the motor to redline when the oil and internal parts were still cold?

    Re: OFFICIAL: New 911 GT3 (991)

    Whether the engine is broken in or not, revving the engine to high rpm from cold start is no good.

    Maybe Porsche should have put in a progressive red line, say limit the engine to 5k rpm when cold, then as the engine  warm up, start raising the rev limit until the proper temperature is reached. Something easily done in software.

    Why did you change out the muffler? Not happy with the GT3 exhaust sound? Most owners have indicated they love it.

    Yes i did love the former sound but this one is like a Cup one. the car now with new geometry is so responsive that you have to be very very gentle in high speed corner it is a scalpel. 

    regarding the blue light now, I think it is more from a warranty stand point


    Re: OFFICIAL: New 911 GT3 (991)

    Is this exhaust dB legal in CH?

    You're not wrong. I've even had Ducati rob me of any pleasure buying a motorbike now. Getting fed up with it.

    Yesterday I had a very nice tour with a friend and the car what to say, amazing. My setup is very much aggressive and  kind of go-kart. My friend took it for a ride, he had a 997 GT3 RS, and he could not believe the step ahead of the car. 


    Re: OFFICIAL: New 911 GT3 (991)

    Ahaha indeed I had to remain cool when installing the parts but no need to listen to radio when driving this machine the sounds is a concert by itself...
