Nice to hear again from you ! Are you facing the rubbing issue as several owners? Have you already tracked the car?

Recall plugs made and no problems(fortunately)

I have not yet seen , or heart from 1st hand , of a car that rubes on factory alignment so much that it makes holes. All the ones I have seen that had holes where after changing the factory settings . Not that this is ok, but it puts it in perspective .
Darius : Please elaborate on the '' is now louder''

i can't talk,someone can kill me.
is a part of the exhaust...the only one that changed don't let you LOOSE torque/power,don't let you GAIN torque/power,but sure give you a great sound.And that in half an hour can be put back to stock.

Nice ! Do you know hat how many decibel you get with the bypass ? Will you be able to drive with it on the tracks ? Specially in France they have become very severe with respecting the sound level and they will take you out if you are above .

Eric,
yes the button/valves/side mufflers still works!i put on the exhaust Monday and i came home,20kms...so not much to tell,sure is louder,and seems but i told SEEMS to take rpm faster...maybe is only due to the added sound.
tomorrow and sunday i will have two events i will let you know if some videos will pop up..
for now i have this one...

pmarkow:today i signed the preorder for the Ferrari 488 Speciale (or GTO or whatever they will call it), which should come in 2-3 years, after i will have enjoyed the GT3RS. i am looking forward to the porsche very much but in the end it has to be ferrari again....
peter
Have you heard the 488 GTB already? After driving a GT3 RS, I'm not so sure you will enjoy the 488 sound. It cannot get better in 2-3 years, especially with sound emissions restrictions getting in place.

Hi Laurent, it sounds really great, I love it ! But I would really check before the db limits at your favorite race tracks in France as I would be very surprised that it will pass. Various race tracks have really become impossible to drive with acar with loud exhaust .

What do you guys think about this? It looks really nice to me.
Woah, that wide front and rear and no wing make it look REALLY muscular. Reminds me when I first saw the 996 turbo in non-metallic black at the dealer... it looked like a crossover between a black panther and a huge drop of oil... really awesome.

This is just a GT3 RS with a removed rear wing...nothing special (and I suppose the repair shop had to do some repair or paint job on the rear wing).

Gnil:.... but it looks very good !
I guess that even some diehard GT3 lovers, like me (or maybe you as well), would love to see that huge wing gone. With active aerodynamics, a lot would be possible but I suppose Porsche doesn't want to have to "remove" a weight increase caused by active aerodynamics by using more lightweight parts, making the car even more expensive.
