I know this question was asked 1,0000,000 times.. But since im not in the USA, its very hard for me to judge on the best exhaust for my 2009 C2S through youtube clips.. therefore i would u guys who heard these exhausts in person to help me pick the loudest with no or minimal drone or resonance..

I already have the Sharkwerks bypass, but i want something louder, some suggested to keep my bypass and go for side mufflers..

But i dont mind buying a new exhaust.. I just want the C2S to sound great and loud.. I dont use it daily.. so no issues there..

what do u guys think i should do..

 

I will be also anxiously waiting for opinions!

 

Keep your Sharky center bypass pipe and add Cargraphic super sound export side mufflers.

 

if you already have the sharwerks crossover, you really only need to buy the side mufflers...

i have a tubi system, but understand that the crossover pipes on it are the same as the sharkwerks corssover... talk with alex and he'll sort you out i'm sure

think all the above manufacturers have the available separately...

i've hear both the cargraphics and i have the tubi and they are both great sounding systems. would say the craftsmanship on the tubi is a bit nicer, but both are very well made.

good luck, dont think you can go wrong with any of the above...

 

personally, im a big fan of cargraphic. I heard the loud version of the mufflers on a carrera when i was in Germany.
I also have the same issue that you're facing, cant trust the sound clips....

 

I'd say go with either Tubi or Cargraphic, but since you already have the Sharkwerks bypass, my vote was for Cargraphic Super Sound Export side mufflers. It's a great combination, with a nice throaty sound.
I know you can trust sound clips 100%, but I can honestly tell you this video we made is pretty darn close to how the system sounds in person. The car in the video has that exact setup: CG side mufflers and sharky bypass.

I do not comprehend how simple welded cans can cost more than 25 hundred bucks. Even 15 hundred is too much for this simple item, so, my vote is for cheapest ones, if anybody finds stock ones to to be adequate. Power gains from hi flow cats, not from mufflers anyway.

 

In reality, you'll find that adding cats really only changes sound, and adds no real power gains. The power gains come from freeing the flow of the headers and the rest of the exhaust system.

As for the cost...well, it comes down to engineering. All the manufacturers listed in this thread take the time to design, engineer, and test their products to insure the best possible performance, fit, and finish. All of these things carry a cost unfortunately.

 

I haven't heard the others on a 997.2 car, but I have heard the Tubi and liked the way it sounded in combination with the Sharkwerks bypass:

I agree, the mod market for porsche is over priced. Now im not saying knock off 50% of the price since naturally everyone wants to make the most profit possible, but a fair price would be nice.

 

The same happened to me...

First I installed the Sharkwerks bypass pipe. Felt a very subtle difference in sound, but liked it

After 2 weeks, I was wanting to get a more exotic sound from my 997.2 C4S

Alex sold me the TUBI side mufflers and now I am completely happy ! At idle it's relaxed, but once you floor the car it screams !

 

Here is our setup of the Maxflo Mufflers on Loud with the X Pipe Primary Bypass. It sounds more sporty and aggressive but not too loud, so its great for everyday driving. I havent heard the Tubi live but from what customers tell me, it sounds good but needs a primary bypass for the perfect sound and power combination.
Thanks,
