Got my rear quarter window smashed because I left a hoodie in the backseat...I guess they thought I had something valuable under it?

You know what else is frustrating? The fact that the entire exhaust system is like 18 inches long but somehow costs thousands of dollars even for a stainless steel oneDig the exhaust Nelson! The frustrating thing with these cars is there's literally 100 different systems/setups and no single one is regarded as the best. I'm struggling big time to decide on a setup for mine. I'd do a muffler bypass but I can't afford to lose any torque considering these things have none :/
Ok brahs so sad day.
Had to get rid of the Borla and put back the stocker.
The Borla was giving me 2 issues I could not live with. The one I bought had the exhaust valves in the midpipes. An extra 600 more for the feature. No problem. I dont want a CEL. So this catback before shipping was 2000. I get it installed. Every time the car is not in track mode (when the active exhaust flaps are stuck open), everytime I hit the gas I hear a bird chirp like sound. Its the valves in the exhaust.
Second was an exhaust rattle coming from the rear
This was due to ****** exhaust clamps.
So at this point I am in for 2300 for the exhaust including install. I could not take the noise anymore so I decided to put the stocker back on. So another 250. 2550 so far.
Called Borla and explained the issue. They are taking my old exhaust back and refunding me everything.
Customer service was great from them. Sucks I had to go through this but it was all sorted out.
So decided I am staying stock.
No, i gave those to my boss and he used them on the Black Turbo i posted the other day.And that's with lowering springs? How high do these sit from the factory?
Oh okay sounds good then. Definitely needs new wheels. Seeing how your m3 turned out I'm sure you'll mod this one nicely can't waitNo, i gave those to my boss and he used them on the Black Turbo i posted the other day.
But yes, it definitely needs to be lowered.
Lower, wheels, tune. That's the list for now.
Thanks man.@Nelson999
Been MIA for a minute but congrats dude. I'm still holding out for a 997.2 GT3 or GT3RS.
Need to make room and sell some cars. Hoping Porsche announcing some boutique cars with manual trans lowers the prices for the older cars.
Damn man, that sucks! Good to see that Borla was understanding though, especially for such an expensive exhaust system. You gonna try any other companies or just leave it?Ok brahs so sad day.

Anyone else see a sporty car and do the window peak to see if it's a manual while walking by?
Card nerd habit, prob makes me look like I'm plotting something...
the price difference between a 997 gt3 and gt3 rs is astronomical
