Hi everyone,

Just wanted to update the status of the Fabspeed catbypass pipes on my 99 996 after having them on for 2 weeks.

I took them off this week (and relplaced the stock cats) and the car is back to it's normal quick and fast self.

I talked to Joe at Fabspeed and told him that I had feedback from several reputable Porshe tuners who told me the car would never run properly without at least 200cell cats.

He has agreed to let me return the pipes for a refund. Interestingly enough he also wanted me to forward him all of the mails and info from the tuners regarding trying to run without cats.

Kudos for him. I love the mufflers from Fabspeed and the other goodies I have. He stands behind his products and that was a pleasant relief for me. :thumbup:

For anyone considering putting on Catbypass pipes (from any manufacturer) don't do it!!! The car will run like crap and have no torque.

Go for a quality chip and leave it at that.

Just my experience but wanted to pass it along.
