RS Fabrications

Local Businessman Damian wanted to get an RS Fabrications Exhaust fabricated and fitted under his Porsche 997 Cabriolet.

Damian, a repeat customer at RS, asked Shane what would be the best configuration for the 997.

“Let me have a look and see how much space we have at the back, and I’ll tell you what I can get in there” said Shane.

The 997 arrived at the workshop and once the standard system was removed it was apparent that space is very limited on the Vehicle.

Shane arrived at a silencer design that RS have used on similar vehicles with restricted space, and fabricated twin silencer boxes with the 180 deg turn internally.

As we know, this effectively doubles the length of the silencer but keeps the outer shell to the minimum dimensions.

As previously mentioned, Damian is a repeat offender at RS, “That man has had more cars than I’ve had Hot Dinners”, commented Russell ”the first year Shane and I were in business, Damian was one of our biggest customers”

A long list of Damian’s vehicles have had the RS treatment. American trucks, cars and a variety of performance vehicles have been through the Banbury Workshop, not all for exhaust systems either.

“We have fitted various things to Damian’s vehicles over the years. The Chrysler 300c had everything. Brakes, suspension and full exhaust system, but one of the most memorable was the 300mm lift kit installed on a brand new GMC Truck. You needed a step ladder to get in the vehicle after it was completed”!! said Russell

The Porsche 997 system is a work of art.

“I purchased a pair of equal length ‘after market’ manifolds for my 997″, said Damian “and after these were fitted, Shane designed and fabricated a fantastic quality exhaust system for the Carrera S.”

Once fired up, the sound from the Porsche was incredible compared to the standard OEM System, not too noisy, but enough sound to let you know that the flat 6 is putting out some power!!

On road test, the engine seemed to rev just that bit easier and this is probably the result of the ‘after market’ manifolds in conjunction with the RS Fabrications 63.5mm Stainless Steel Exhaust System.

 The Duel, Twin Tailpipes finish off the installation, and this is probably the view that most motorists will see of the Carrera S!

Shane would like to fabricate a pair of RS Fabrications manifolds, incorporating proper racing 3 into 1 merged collectors. This would extract the final few BHP for the normally aspirated motor.

Call Russell or Shane at RS fabrications on 01295 266655 and talk to them about what they can do for your Porsche, or any performance vehicle for that matter.

Don’t delay, Get the Power!! like Damian.
