997 exhaust mod. for 996
#1
Killer App. For My Exhaust!
After many months of searching, waiting to get a pair of 997 exhaust so I can do some mod. to fit on my 996.
Finally, I received a pair for nothing from EBAY to work on. The result is astounding. The exhaust sound is impressive and what I have expected. It sounds much better than the Fabspeed exhaust that I had.
Here is the result of pure happiness:

great sound. no doubt. now, can you tell me how does it sound at highway speeds around 3000 RPM in 6th gear? Does it make the cabin obnoxious? does it drone? Any advantages on doing it on the 997 instead of the 996 mufler... thanks daytrader, now I have the itch.

sounds like a big diesel at idle oh and is it possible to remove the tips, flip them upside down, and then swap right to left?? seems like they would fit the bumper much better that way!

Thanks guys! The tips can be remove for switching. I didn't have 997S tips yet so I use a set from non "S" ones just to do the shoot. I took the video right after the work completed.
On cruising speeds there is no droning at all. The advantage of using 997 cans you can do twin by-pass pipes to get more aggressive sound.

Was the mod done from the extra third outlet in the 997 muffler to the exhaust pipe or from the cat intake (at the muffler) to the exhaust pipe?
Why did you pick the 997 instead of the 996?
Thanks!

My friend did not know the buzz came from an RV just pull up and park near us. Will have more video with better sound and clarity.

Just did this on a C4S...
Did the H pipe between the intake pipe and exhaust pipe and it sounds awesome. Used 997 s mufflers and it sounds a little like a tubi and just screams in the upper end. If you lug it, it's no louder than stock. However, the shop had to cut and extend certain pipes to fit. Super happy with the results. Louder than PSE for sure!! Anybody who is contemplating Bypass pipes with no mufflers should go this route, it's way more liveable.

You can use your 996 bracket for the 997 can. Yes, the x51 has dual outlet pipes. I use non "x51" exhaust.
