I think the main difference that I can tell on video between the new setup and the actual GT3 is that the actual GT3 is still a little deeper sounding, the new setup sounds great though!
12:35 My favourite Murci exhaust ever was on Paul Wallace's Murci and it was a FabSpeed system. That thing sounded glorious and I still use that video as my go to video for when I wanna show someone how good the Murci sounds 🔥👌
I bought a 2012 997.2 GTS 3 weeks ago with only 14k miles. Same, the exhaust note is too muffed. Because the 997.2 has 3 mufflers, two side muffler and one central muffler. I ordered a Kline Innovation inconel muffler system. It still has two side muffler and one central X-pipe. when PSE button pressed, these two side muffler are bypassed. The Inconel material is very thin, once cured under initial heavy driving bad heat/cool cycle, these two side exhaust will give higher pitch exhaust note than stainless steel or titanium. I also have a 2016 991.1 GTS. The same Kline Inconel exhaust upgrade. Works great. The Kline exhaust for the 997.2 just arrived. That’s only 3 weeks. Super fast. It will be installed next week. Look forward to experiencing it
What an incredible improvement even though its not that big of a difference! The nasty rasp is now fuller in sound and you hear the engine howl more than just screech, sick exhaust tone!
heating up the bolts expands the metal and then as it cools it shrinks ever so slightly allowing the threads to free up and for the bolt to turn, it doesnt always work but thats why it does
Why didn’t you remove the side mufflers? It would give the car more of the flat 6 sound & more HP & torque. I know there is a way w/the fabspeed products you have installed to also remove the side mufflers w/the fabspeed bypass pipe.
I’m shocked he didn’t spray them with some holy water first before putting a ratchet to it 🤣 that face on the first broken bolt… we all been there homie. Cheers bro 😎
Gotta hit those header bolts with some freeze spray…….liquid nitrogen…etc. give it a minute. Should help. (drug store wart remover works)…. It’ll make em contract…. Go back and forth heat / freeze. Impact wrench too…..shakes em loose. The new exhaust sounds great!!!
I think a nice PTS paint job and some sport seats with painted hard back and some bbs would really take this car to the next level and for resale value it would be big.
I have Fabspeed headers into Fabspeed Xpipe and the before video is just what mind sounded like at 3-4k RPM. Hoping I can fix that with the gundo mod, but it looks like it will sound the freaking same.
You should check out topspeed pro1 exhaust for your 997 if you want a gt3 style sound. It is a set of muffler delete pipes that will work with your current setup but will add a ton of throat and volume to your sound. Unfortunately the drawback is that nasty drone. I had it on my C4s for awhile and loved it. I switched to a true fister muffler setup but I desperately miss the racecar noises
Def improvement over the tinny tin tin sound. Imagine if you swapped out the heavy factory mufflers for the fabspeed supercup ones. An EVO-MS intake adds some serious scream as well.
The previous owner did a muffler delete without getting rid of the muffler. I’m going to guess the cutting them off and finding a pipe angled close enough to replace it was to difficult so the decided to cut and weld a bypass because the pressure is lower bypassing the muffler than going through it they it was louder. Stupid to weld a bypassing pipe instead of getting an aging pipe on both sides to replace the muffler and not have it there as dead weight.
I'm sure someone already mentioned this, but someone should have told you to loosen, then tighten, then loosen, then tighten header bolts when they're that rusty. It breaks apart the rust little by little.
Good job, that sounded awful before. I know what you mean about the 997 they rarely sound good, but I think you've managed it with this combo. I have the gundo hack only it sounds fine, maybe the headers at some point but know it will be pricey with the rusted bolts. Yours sounded great on the downshifts :)
Jack doing a Rice to Nice build. Donut doing HiLow mustangs. Emilia doing a drag Z. Automotive TH-cam is in a very happy place rn
You named all my fave channels but you left out BigTime!
Richard Hammond's daughter Izzy is working on a Mini!
And DDE just got a revuelto and TJ hunt just got his porsche fixer upper running
And shmee doing a 914 restoration and Thestradman rebuilding an 812 into an widebody one,youtube car industry at its peak
Danny Z doing a V8 swapped NFS bmw E46 M3 replica build too
It's plain funny listening back to how raspy the old exhaust was in comparison to the new one
sounded like a civic lol
Totally! That annoying rasp that hits on the top end is totally gone!
sounds really identical to the gt3 this build is turning out great man good taste fr
Now it sounds like a "normal" Porsche.
I can't believe how similar but how much more civilized the new exhaust sounds. Huge improvement.
The new setup is much better not so raspy
oh my GOD your Porsche is beautiful.
This is almost a insult, what Porsche isnt beautiful? 😆
I think the exhaust setup is much more appreciable from the inside than it is from the outside. The indoor comparision is what actually sold it. ; )
Okay, the camera at 16:32 onwards sounded very dope too.
I think the main difference that I can tell on video between the new setup and the actual GT3 is that the actual GT3 is still a little deeper sounding, the new setup sounds great though!
I'm liking your Porsche Arc
Man car youtubers are making great content rn keep it up jack this thing is looking sick and is going to look so much cooler

Love that you absolutely improve your every car you obtain.
Feel bad for your buddy that hooked you up. You know he was thinking, “Fuck! Shop foreman said I have an hour to get that shit outta hear…” 😨

Them Damn studs 😂
this do be sounding like a gt3
It’s all about the X pipe, equal length headers are huge as well, but merging the two banks is a major part of this
Yea, this is the sound the 997 deserves. It sounds utterly amazing
I love watching this project progress! Keep it up!
Huge ups in sound
What an incredible improvement even though its not that big of a difference! The nasty rasp is now fuller in sound and you hear the engine howl more than just screech, sick exhaust tone!
Much better than before, good choice!
souds so much bettter now, loving the 997 series
WOW I LOVE IT!! Now it sounds like a proper Porsche
heating up the bolts expands the metal and then as it cools it shrinks ever so slightly allowing the threads to free up and for the bolt to turn, it doesnt always work but thats why it does
sounds really good with the new setup! congrats bro!
Left handed drill bits ftw! They've saved me a few times 😂
Sounds a lot better man, love the car and what you are doing with it. Need to hear it driving some nice curvy roads👌👌
Love watching ur vids man uve grown so much keep the vids going🔥🔥🔥
That change at 3k is the Varioram which is the variable intake manifold.
Sounds so much better very similar to gt3 without the pops
Bro in my opinion its almost like a night and day difference
Why didn’t you remove the side mufflers? It would give the car more of the flat 6 sound & more HP & torque. I know there is a way w/the fabspeed products you have installed to also remove the side mufflers w/the fabspeed bypass pipe.
Love the wheels, very clean 997!
Definitely a difference! Your extensive research paid off for sure! New set-up has just the right sounds! You da man Jack!
I’m shocked he didn’t spray them with some holy water first before putting a ratchet to it 🤣 that face on the first broken bolt… we all been there homie. Cheers bro 😎
Jack u deserve a gt3 rs for the hardwork you put to make us theses amazing contents
It's a good day when Jackultramotive uploads!
Sound similar to some old school v12s, or even an older gen leman car. Sounds way better, good choice of exhaust
Hey Jack so I just got me a 01 mustang and I wanted your opinion and the comments opinion on what I should buy first to start building it up
Gotta hit those header bolts with some freeze spray…….liquid nitrogen…etc. give it a minute. Should help. (drug store wart remover works)…. It’ll make em contract…. Go back and forth heat / freeze. Impact wrench too…..shakes em loose. The new exhaust sounds great!!!
It’s just sounds high quality!🔥
That sounds 100x better … I honestly wasn’t convinced it would change all that much at first lol
I think a nice PTS paint job and some sport seats with painted hard back and some bbs would really take this car to the next level and for resale value it would be big.
Best sounding carrera I’ve heard👌
I have Fabspeed headers into Fabspeed Xpipe and the before video is just what mind sounded like at 3-4k RPM. Hoping I can fix that with the gundo mod, but it looks like it will sound the freaking same.
sounds so mutch better then before this new stuff is fire
love this series

Sounds so much better 🔥🔥🔥
loving how fast your making progress on this one
New one sounds great
Sounds good 👌
That sounds good 💯
Awesome!!! That sounds so good. I can totally hear the difference!!! But that was an expensive upgrade!
typical 911 studs always break with the engine being at rear gets so much road grime thrown up at it they rust solid. you defiantly improved the tone.
Big difference dude! I own a 991.1 and would like that sound.
Wow what a difference, definitely was a must.
Its sounding GOOD
Can’t wait to see this thing paint corrected
Damn dude your Porsche sounds awesome. Hopefully I get mine 997.2 put together here soon and hit up 4 til 4🤞
It really does sound so much better
I snapped an exhaust bolt on my 20k mile 981 Gt4. I felt this episode
The tone is SOOO much better
Man what a difference in sound big ups I definitely prefer the new set up 😃
The flanges on the heaters look kinda thin. Any issues with leaks with them? Also, any perceptible increase in power or drivability?
You did that, right dude! Nice!
Def improvement over the tinny tin tin sound. Imagine if you swapped out the heavy factory mufflers for the fabspeed supercup ones. An EVO-MS intake adds some serious scream as well.
I have a 997 with a 4 L engine. The only thing it’s missing is the headers it is a fab speed exhaust with valve Tronic.
To sound good you also need to shift gear in high rpm, not in 5k as you do lol
The previous owner did a muffler delete without getting rid of the muffler. I’m going to guess the cutting them off and finding a pipe angled close enough to replace it was to difficult so the decided to cut and weld a bypass because the pressure is lower bypassing the muffler than going through it they it was louder. Stupid to weld a bypassing pipe instead of getting an aging pipe on both sides to replace the muffler and not have it there as dead weight.
What did you guys use to record the exhaust sound in this, especially at 17:00 mins?
I am also curious what the mic setup is like
I'm sure someone already mentioned this, but someone should have told you to loosen, then tighten, then loosen, then tighten header bolts when they're that rusty. It breaks apart the rust little by little.
Love this series! Can’t wait for you to put better wheels on it
This whole vid has the whole "boys working on the car weekend" 😂
he didn't do anything lmao
@@joyy8579 Well, someones gotta drink beer and talk smack bro. 🤷♂️
the gt3 has a even deeper tone and its so hard to replicate if you don't have a center exiting exhaust
6:26 - my new motto right there
Sounds great! Are you still using the stock mufflers?
Jack doing a rebuild, donut hi low, big time fixing the silvia, emilia doing a Z, matt field finishing the drift C8, Its a good world
That's a night and day difference, good job
sounds amazing 😫😫
I was about to say it needs wheels, but looks like you beat me to it. Nice 👍
The wheels look deep dish im excited for the reveal
Good job, that sounded awful before. I know what you mean about the 997 they rarely sound good, but I think you've managed it with this combo. I have the gundo hack only it sounds fine, maybe the headers at some point but know it will be pricey with the rusted bolts. Yours sounded great on the downshifts :)
The sound is so much better than before
what if there's a Murcíelago Lp640 bodykit that can turn it in to an SV version
Did you replace the original steering wheel with that nice one you have now? If so, what Porsche wheel is that?
Worth every penny. Wow
Can’t wait to see it sometime in az
New set up is perfection
I have identical setup, and with the fabspeed maxflo mufflers, throw those oem mufflers in the bin
You might have to watch tj hunt video of him transforming Kevin Porsche exhaust note you’ll probably like it more bc it sounds like exotic gt3
It sounds a lot different 15:04
only way to get the high pitched sound is to get rid of the cats or get high flow
You made me want a 997 again! Gotta go and look for one now :( haha
You should have been spraying those bolts weeks before the install 🤣
The new sound so much better
Definitely sounds like a 997 GT3 tho 🎉🎉
Damnn it soundsss sickkkk😎
Sounds better for sure.
