Hi Mate, the bypass mod is quite common, I had mine done by a different Indy, but I've found a few of these for you it's worth every pound. and here is mine - not done by revolution but same idea etc - it's money well spent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninesomething Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 @Southy yours is one of the best sounding bypass clips I've heard. Mine's booked in next week - hope it sounds that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roofer84 Posted March 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Thanks for that southy I must admit they do sound good especially the guards red, I will be booking mine into Revolution but not until April as they are booked up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanky Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Think to have the bypass done will depend on the condition of the original exhaust, think of lot these back boxes will coming to the end of life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babaa Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Had it done on mine a while back and decided on it instead of Carnewal as my car / exhaust had done under 30k miles and meant I could go there same day & back without too much driving / travel to another country in lockdown. After it cooled down enough they were finished in less than half a day, and you can't see a trace of any work from the back / underneath, and definitely no drone - which was something I was keen not to have. Hard to say though if it really is as good / better as some of those clips (i.e. mine is a 987.2 and I think their mods are different for the 987.1 and possibly louder?), and also clips of no Revolution ones as I think you really need to get the cars side by side to tell, and been in lockdown / no meets since mine was done to be able to compare. Will say though that once over about 4k revs, it definitely sounds much better than standard / before the mod - how much better though, tricky to tell until I get to compare.

fizz Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 I spied this on their website and was really tempted to look at it in the future once i get the urge for a new sound as im just getting used to the stock system. Would deffo love to meet up with come fellow owners who have had this done to compare against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperPaulie Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 i did mine myself, just had the pipes pre-bent for me by a fabricator. I cut the box pipes and welded it in myself, probably the best thing ive done to the car. https://i.imgur.com/NtKBPUZ.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meeting up might be a little while off yet, but did get round to recording a quick clip from my 987.2 S install. Car was already warmed up from a drive (so background noise is the cooling fans), so not a cold start but a couple of quick revs to just under 4k, then a bit beyond. And yes, I know I need to have the drive de-weeded 😄. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Updated - took a while with COVID to get to another meet, but have eventually managed to hear my Revolution exhaust work compared to a Carnewal so wanted to give an update for others maybe choosing between. Only got to hear start up really a few quick blips, but was enough to pick up the the Carnewal mod sounded throatier / bit deeper than my Revolution one. From what I've read perhaps your existing exhaust plays a part in how well many of the exhaust modifications sound, so maybe 2 other people with the same mods maybe the Revolution one might sound throatier - but from the one I've been able to compare to so far, I prefer the Carnewal sound 😞 Still though I'm happy with what I have and it is definitely a step up from standard and I've already been enjoying it for a year, but with the costs not too dissimilar, I think I'd opt for Carnewal if I had my time again.

Terryg Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) Tried to add a clip of my bypass but it had everything but sound so not much use. Edited September 12, 2021 by Terryg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
