2011 997 GT3 With SharkWerks Exhaust, EVOMSit & RS Flywheel Conversion
This black on black 2011 GT3 came up to us from Southern California for a few Shark-themed goodies. On the menu was the SharkWerks Exhaust, our larger Tips, the EVOMSit software and the GT3RS Clutch/flywheel conversion.
In she comes and the flashing station is at the ready:
The bumper, belly pans, cross-members and other supports are removed:
Once the slave cylinder etc.. and coolant is removed the transmission itself can be unbolted and lowered out from underneath the car. The engine itself stays in place:
With the transmission off you can access and remove the factory pressure plate, clutch disc and dual mass (for dampening) flywheel:
Meanwhile there's a few parts starting to collect:
Since the stock exhaust is being removed/replaced there's also a few other stragglers at the back end:
The upgraded RS pressure plate (with three straps), new ring gear, clutch disc and RS single mass flywheel (15 pounds lighter than the one being removed) is then installed:
Before re-installing all the parts we added in the RSS Toe-steer kit and lock out plates to help prevent the toe-angle from changing under load:
The cross members, belly pans and other supports are all re-installed again:
On goes the SharkWerks exhaust (saves 18 pounds vs stock):
A close up of our larger (and lighter by 2 pounds!) 88mm tips:
Finally the new EVOMSit tuning is uploaded and set for 91octane, improved throttle response and left-foot braking enabled:
All ready to go back home down South:
