Been considering exhaust options for the ‘25 GTS. Really like the sound of the Kline exhaust but open to feedback from others who actually have an aftermarket exhaust.

Turns out the ‘25 cars have locked ECUs. So can’t them tune them at all for the moment. Talked to M-Engineering and they have been working on it but so far no options to tune.

Guess I can just buy and OAPs and back box and just code out the valves being closed in factory logic for now or just get OAPs like my Boxster.

No personal experience, but here are a few relevant videos from our own @JetFuelOnly...

Thanks for sharing. I’m a subscriber for Jet Fuel. He does an amazing job helping all of us. I have OAPs so know it’s sound better with them on but want more tone and not just volume. That’s why I’m considering an exhaust. Wish the 982s sounded like the 981s. All this would be moot.

Here the latest items while the car is getting PPF, ceramic coat, and tint. Went with what I’ve had great success with…Xpel products.

Will be installing some interior bits from Crazy Eddie on the LWBS. SunCoast delivered clear side markers, all weather interior mats, hood liner, GT4RS anodized black rear trim work, PPM screen protection, etc.

@Crazy Eddie is a 'special' friend of Carpokes. The man was born to build bolster covers. Nothing else really comes close honestly. He stops by Carpokes on occasion, but spends most of his time protecting his herd of cows from skin abrasions and UV exposure. 8-) If you've never met him, he's in that last Jet Fuel Only exhaust video I posted...

Entertaining man to speak with over the phone. He’s excited about his new ride.

Well I got the SunCoast parts order mostly installed. Easiest stuff to do in the car. License plate drill and install, frunk lid protector, all weather mats, cargo nets, etc. I can’t wait to do exhaust and suspension work on this. Later this week I install the a few other interior parts include some bolster protectors and RS rear trim bits.

Went for a fantastic drive in the mountains to get a feel for the car and the PDK transmission. It’s sublime but still prefer the manual transmission better in my BGTS. I’m sure on the track I will truly appreciate PDK. Love the bucket seats and position at speed.

First meaningful drive in the CGTS. I definitely bought the right car for a street/track duty use case. Snapped a couple of pics while stopping near Grey Eagle, CA.
