2011 997 Carrera GTS SharkWerks Exhaust & TechArt PDK Paddle Kit

As fine as the PDK 997.2 Carrera GTS is in stock form we often like to give it a couple of finishing touches including the Shark Werks exhaust and the TechArt PDK paddle kit conversion. This silver 2011 Cabriolet specimen did just that for improved sound and a less cumbersome shift set-up.

Up on the hoist she goes:



The stock center exhaust is a bit of a kill joy even with the PSE system:


The SharkWerks exhaust installed in its place is also lighter by 9 pounds. It retains the sport button function for quiet/stealthy and aggro/fun modes:


It also fits the stock PSE tips:


Those annoying stock shifter buttons that get in the way and cause you to palm and upshift when you actually require a downshift. They're about to go bye bye:


The steering wheel controls are disassembled and once the TechArt kit installed one can still use the factory radio and other wheel controls:


And installed with one side for upshifts and one for downshifts- with paddles:


And ready for home...
