Kreis-Sieg Exhaust?

Go to Ferrari chat 348/355 forum and do a search. There was a great discussion on this about 3 months ago which included input from a famous Japanese tuner confirming all of this.

Anyway I wasn't as impressed with the sound of it for the 996TT and figured the novelty wasnt really worth the extra grand or so over the Miltek (which I had on my S4 and is a good system), but then I was looking at the setup again the other night and realized that for this car the valve system actually routes around the cats...so basically a cat bypass at the touch of a button.
That feature is likely to pull 5k out my pocket, so I was just wanting to see if anyone on here has checked it out in person yet or better yet has been running it for a while.
TIA

I heard that about almost every exhaust. Really! Somehow the E46 M3 was very difficult to get more power out of...

A posting I can actually add value to!
I have had Cargraphic, Europipe and now the Keis-Seig. I was lucky enough to buy the titanium version used and saved $10K -
#1 - no resonance - sounds a little throater than OEM but certainly less than either Cargraphic and Europipe. Because there is more restriction, definitely less HP. But I am able to leave at 4 am without setting off car alarms and waking up the neighborhood.
#2 - staight pipe - just like the guys with straight pipes will tell you - it's a ROAR, more power than any sane person could ever want, and lag is reduced to nothing. I have the pipes open 90% of the time.
I would think that cutoffs on an OEM set up would be the next best thing. Or probably better because of the cost savings.
I did have one problem - the vacuum hose was installed to close to the pipes and it melted. Cost $50 to fix.
I'll make a mpeg of them this weekend and post.
PM with any questions.
