Centre Bye-Pass power loss gt3
Discussion
After watching loads of videos on u tube and checking out the different
Manufactures web sites, they all have different opinions on what the bye
Pass will achieve in terms of sound, drone and loss of power. Fabspeed
Say that the two sides of the exhaust system must be linked and how it
Is connected will affect the power at the back wheels. A lot of the systems
On the market are not connected together so does any body know which
One is the best return for sound/power and the cost.

I wouldn’t put too much faith in anything Fabspeed says ...Manufactures web sites, they all have different opinions on what the bye

I've used an FVD and a Sharwerks bypass on a few 7.2rs models. Can't say there should be much difference between any of them. It is just a couple of straight pipes. There are small differences in how the pipes curve but not sure that would make a material difference.
Can't say I've noticed any drop in power on the dyno. One car with the FVD suggested a sizeable increase but I think that might have had more to do with either a stronger/modded engine or wayward measuring

Any body had a Brooke racing centre bye-pass on there gt3 and if what did you think ?
just go with the sharkwerks if you want steel, it's tried and tested on 20,000 cars worldwide.If you want a UK product buy the JCR Ti one and save some weight.
I don't see the need to look anywhere else bar those 2, it's not an important part in the big picture and both have link pipes to reduce drone.

No link pipe on the Sharkwerks one. But I never experienced any drone. If you want a UK product buy the JCR Ti one and save some weight.

I was told that the link pipe helps to balance the exhaust pressure pulses between the banks and leads to better harmonics.
In practice, I've got a non-linked stainless one (Hayward and Scott), and a linked ti one (JCR Superlight). There is a considerable difference in sound and tone between the two, and although the H&S offers a marked improvement in volume over the standard silencer, it can sound a bit, well, just louder at times (rather than allowing any real engine character to come through).
The JCR is a work of art. It's a shame to sling it beneath the car and cover it up. It's also quite surreal how light it is. Your brain, arms and hands are prepared to hold something far heavier, so you nearly throw it at the ceiling the first time you pick one up! It sounds higher pitched than the H&S one (material & wall thickness?), and allows more of the character of the engine to come through. In short, it's bloody fantastic!
The thing is, the H&S pipe is £428. The JCR pipe is £2095.
You pays your money..

:-( is that link pipe not hollow ? my bad..I would go JCR then, no brainer and with the balance link pipe design.
