I have Europipe Stage II Quiet on my GT2 and I am very happy with it. All the performance of the loud, but a little quiter around the neighborhood. Europipe was great to deal with. I bought on a Thursday and it was in the shop the following Wed. in S. Calif. Fit, finish and quality are excellent.

I had Ruf exhaust on my 01 TT and it was great as well.

Good luck.

Fabspeed loud all the way. If you don't want loud, don't buy it. Much cheaper than the EP, Techart, or RUF. Great HP increase, incredible sound, no problems, and great customer service. I also hear the cargraphic is nice for about the same price...but I've never heard one in person.

Fabspeed is very loud and adds power but don't try to listen to your radio or even talk in the car. I just took mine off and put on the Cargrafic super sport import. Very loud lots of power and quite inside the car has a very nice throaty sound. Fabspeed is just loud the sound is horrible period. Find a way to listen to them first and not from the clips from the computer.

Stephsguy has it right don't buy an exhaust based on what you hear in a sound clip! They are not the same as when sitting in the drivers seat. Listen to an exhaust you think you like on a car. After the ride you will know if it is for you or not. Sound is subjective!!!

TUBI Exhaust

I had tubi on my Turbo S for allmost 10 weeks now, but I still don't feel that I'v made the right choice ....

This Exhhaust has a very nice looking tailpipes, just like the one's on the 993 Turbo S. The quality is also good, however; I still don't feel realy happy with the " Music ".

The sound is so deeeep even on low RPM. It's nothing close to my C4S Factory Sport Exhaust, that was my Favorite.

Now I'm thinking of getting something else, but ....

DO NOT USE TUBI on the turbo. Xico had it and it lost power. Go with the Fabspeed or Cargraphics. Just my $0.02

If your cruising below 2500 RPM...then you will get a lot of resonance.... above 2800...it's not loud at all...

My car was loud all the time. At 3200 RPM was the worst for me. Joe Fabiani even installed Cones inside to help with the resonance. Still to loud.

I've had the AWE/McNeil for a couple of months now and really like it. Seems to keep getting better. Nice sound, not too loud or obnoxious, no drone, beautiful quality, also adds "28 peak crank hp gain on K16 turbos" according to their site.

Really depends on how loud you want it, but like mentioned before, best way is to listen to one before you buy. I had the B&B for a while and it was WAY too loud with a lot of resonance. Switched it out to the Cargraphic now and am extremely happy. Great sound without being obnoxiously loud.

Fabspeed moderate sport

I installed the moderate Fabspeed on my '03 TT a few weekends ago. Great quality. Easy install if you want to do it yourself. Resonance at about 2800 rpm but only at that point. Sound is sporty but not excessively loud like the loud version.

always interesting to hear opinions on different systems. As noted, you must hear it in person if you can as we all have different taste. RUF with mine, very happy. My first and most important criteria was no drone and it certainly met my expectations. (I take my 2 young kids in the rear many times and I have to be able to chat with them at usual cruising RPM's 2500-2800)
