Welcome to the board -- you need a set of dual-style tips to compliment the exhaust system.

Check out this video of a 996 Carrera 3.6L with our dual-style tips.

welcome to the group.

as for mods you might want to look into, try GT3 console delete (suncoast Porsche). it removed the console your right leg rubs on.

and after you have driven it for a bit, go to a drivers' ed event. the car is completely different at >5k rpm

or, just enjoy it every day - that's what is was built for!!
