Here is my RUF 590, you can here how different it sounds then almost every 996TT exhauast, doesnt even sound like a turbo car!

And here is another, a 4th gear pull by the camera, 3rd would be even more high pitched, but you can see the tone of the car nicely!

I do like the RUF and Europipe sound. When I switch exhaust I want some weight savings along with sound and performance. Who has the lightest exhaust?

I have a Cargraphic exhaust on my 996 TT and in my opinion it is the best sounding exhaust. My car sounds like a Porsche Cup car but not as loud.
I'll put a sound clip in Youtube this weekend.

I have the Switzer exhaust on my car and love the way it looks and sounds. I've got nothing but compliments. Great sound at Idle and WOTM and limited drone on the highway if any.

Martin, my dealer just called it "the biggest", so I guess it is the one from the 590 I'll check it for sure tomorrow!

Ahhhhh niceeee, you will LOVE the sound for it being on a turbo porsche, the resonance while cruising from the outside is melodic and so exotic sounding!

Nothing and I mean nothing beats the sound of the stock system. It's just so wicked!



OK maybe not... The best advice is honestly to try out the exhaust on someone elses car first. These cars are really prone to resonance and most of the exhausts have varying degrees of that....
