Stop believing all the crap you read .

Regarding Fabspeed, there have been complaints . Droning inside the car , tips that don't fit on the exhaust pipes, CE light etc.

Do you really believe you will gain 40 hp + from an exhaust ? or 10 hp from a rubber elbow "cold air kit " ?
Fabspeed does not know the difference between a muffler and a resonator( and I am not kidding you ) so what can you expect .

Get a different exhaust if you want a better/different sound, not for any hp.

And in my opinion, the best sounding exhaust for a Porsche is the PSE .
It will sound like a Porsche , with no resonance issues .
Not like a Subaru on steroids.

Haven't you learned anything from your recent supercharger experience ?
If you think EVO is bad, wait till you get a muffler someone sells out of his driveway . Lol

Well , you seem to agree with most of what I said. Lol

When did Joe close in his driveway ?
Business must be good . Lol

Is he still using his home made , hand held video camera ad ?

are you sure you can't feel the 40 hp increase ? the tremendous power surge across the entire operating range, the improved breathing ,
after all , they are all dyno proven .No?

But, as long as you're happy with the sound ....

Can PSE be added to a car that doesn't have it? I have a 2006 C2S. I presume this is done at a Porsche dealership. Any recs in the Dallas area? What kind of cost are we talking about for this?

installation for mufflers alone (without electronics) shouldnt be more than $150-200.
the pse mod is a good alternative if you arent expecting to gain any power anyway...

Paris, you should look into the AWE system too. i had the mufflers and they were excellent quality. didnt your brother have the tubi?

I maybe a bit too practical but wouldn't it be better to resolve your EVOMS SC problem before you do anything else to your car. FIX your SC first; then move on to more mods.

Just a suggestion!

Good Luck!

Do the hack, it's easier, cheaper and always loud. To install the electronics they need to do major labor on your car.

I have Fabspeed mufflers, headers and cat bypass, I love the sound and I get compliments from people anywhere I go, especially at the track.
