BBS FI-R Wheels on a NEW 991 GT3 RS SOFAKING HOT!

The Porsche 991 GT3RS is the most sought after out of the box race car for the street.  There is no substitute for Porsche!  Now to make them even more amazing, BBS Wheels have released their new 20 inch wheel fitment for the GT3RS.  The wheels are done in a 20×9.5 and 20×12 with slightly more aggressive offsets than stock.  Utilizing the factory Sport Cup tires, the new BBS FI-R centerlock wheels save a tremendous amount of rotational weight compared to factory.  The full forged wheels weigh in at about 7.9kg front and 9.3kg rear.  Astonishing craftmanship and functionality out of these true motorsport wheels.  Check out more on the BBS FI-R Wheels Here.

Chevrolet Camaro SS on the Dyno with Borla S-Type Exhaust

Our good friends in Colombia just ran this Chevrolet Camaro SS on the dyno, fully equipped with the brand-new Borla S-Type Exhaust. This muscle car sounds like a beast and performs like one too. You can check out more from out South American partners at http://www.vividracing.com or on Instagram @colombiancars.


BORLA’s Camaro catback exhaust is led by an aggressive high-performance “S” type system (PN:140280) that utilizes patented XR-1 technology from BORLA exhausts used in race-winning Corvettes and other GM champions. The catback system comes complete with an x-pipe for increased flow and a richer sound. Aside from the incredible power, sound and appearance, drivers will also enjoy a significant weight reduction with a BORLA exhaust, shedding as much as 43lbs over the stock weight. This is surely enough to make a difference both at the pump and racetrack.


Like all BORLA exhausts, the Camaro system features durable high-quality austenitic stainless steel construction, patented “power when you want it, fuel economy when you need it” technology, mirror-polished tips and a million-mile warranty.


Check out the photos and dyno video below from our South American partners. You can also check out all BORLA products here and all BORLA Camaro parts here.

Porsche 997 Turbo Flash from Norway

VR Tuned ECU Flashing is used worldwide because of the convenience to read and write your performance tuning via the OBDII port as seen here.  One of the most popular ECU flashes is for the Porsche 997.1 Turbo.  This customer in Norway wanted to take full control of his Porsche’s potential so he added a VR Tuned ECU tune.  The 997 Turbo comes stock with 480 horsepower to the crank.  When flashed, it jumps to a very powerful 615 horsepower!  How come this is not like this from the factory?  Porsche has to meet certain regulations for fuel economy, performance, and also have a car built for the everyday driver.  Doing a performance ECU tune does not harm the 3.6L engine at all.  In fact these engines are plenty strong to 800 horsepower!  Tuning the 997TT has changes done to the vehicles maps that retain the sport mode while giving a blast of extra boost.  Reaching your cars full potential is usually done with a high flow exhaust, air filter, and 93 octane gas.  The more the air can flow free without restriction, the happier the Turbo is.  See our power proven dyno sheet and customer review video on the Porsche 997 Turbo Flash Product Here.

Customer"s Porsche 991 S with Armytrix Exhaust System

One of our customers, Rustin Pierce, (username: White991S) posted his Porsche 991 S equipped with an Armytrix exhaust system on the 6SpeedOnline blog. Overjoyed with the results, both performance and appearance-wise, Rustin posted the following in his post: “I have a 991 S and just had an Armytrix exhaust installed. Austin at Vivid Racing did a great job walking me through my options and absolutely pointed me in the right direction. It’s hard to know what direction to go because of all the options, but he really helped me pick the right one. I absolutely love the sound!! Very unique.”


Check out the photo and videos below featuring the impressive look and sound emitted from the Armytrix exhaust on Rustin’s Porsche. “It sounds great in the video but even better in person,” he says. “The beginning of the video starts off with the valves closed and then you can really hear the difference when I open them up. Looking forward to having my COBB Access Port next!!”
