Porsche 996 C4S catless X PIPE install and sound clips 

Awesome. Which remap did you do and does that greatly affect longevity of the engine? Does it put that much more stress on the components?

@@tomgorelik thanks man. I have a custom tune made at a Porsche tuner in the Netherlands. It doesn’t add much stress since it’s a N/A engine, so they just optimized it for the new exhaust. I had the engine rebuilt 5.000 km ago, so I’m not too worried about additional stress on the engine components anymore

@@Jean-Paul_1984 and what exactly goes into the optimization? Is it optimized to not have any type of low RPM bucking issues when you get rid of the cats?

@@tomgorelik yes, they told me it’s to optimize the fuel map due to better air flow and get a bit more hp.

Very nice. Yeah I love how it’s really awakened the car in terms of noise and feedback. I love it.

@@tomgorelik the rear and of the 996 C4S looks amazing and now it sounds amazing too!

Just added a video of my exhaust sound to my profile.

@@user-qn6yt3zx3w sounds like a monster

X pipe is what gives it a much better tone.

I believe that’s what he’s running yes

It’s an Amazon led strip technically meant for the hood - supposed to look like an accent light the same as say a new electric VW - but I got it in red and extra long to account for the full tail light assembly

@@tomgorelik very clever, thanks for responding

@@xaviercrespo6795 absolutely. Forgot to mention, I also wrapped said light strip with clear red vinyl to match the color a bit better and give a deeper red

Do you have a link? @@tomgorelik

So far so good!

You got it! I’ll perhaps get the led strip and vinyl again to recreate but for the camera.

Cool... For if you can help just one person (me!) your efforts will not have been in vain!! (That Install is the "ish"...)@@tomgorelik

Would also like to know more about the led strip. Nice X pipe I have the same on my 4S

The thumbnail is slightly deceiving because I had 15mm front and 18mm rear with occasional rub. However, I’ve since gotten Michelin PS4S and had to get rid of the spacers because it started to rub allll the time. As it stands now, it’s strictly h&r sport springs (red) and Bilstein B8. No more spacers.

Yea mine to I had to go up a tyre size in the rear to 295 not the standard 285

hey mate, try 5mm in front and 10mm in the back. have that on my car and looks/drives really good@@chris-eccohealthcare

I’ve read a ton about loss of power way down low and I can’t say I feel that - the only thing I feel at times is bogging way down low primarily from a dead start and that 110% is attributed to loss of scavenging (back pressure). I guess that’s normal on a NA car. However, butt dyno says it’s woken up in noise and response north of 3k rpm and that’s where I want it to live anyway haha

@@tomgorelik Thanks for the reply!
