I had the Oettle fitted today, excellent value for money with a big grin factor.
Leading evidence: 'Install today, excellent value' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'best' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Install today, excellent value' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Suspected cause
I've been following the various sports exhaust threads with great interest and conclude that the PSE with its quiet option is probably the best but the most expensive because of its 'quiet' mode capability and the wiring etc.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

wqe did group buy from OPC Colchester late last year. £1450 for 996. Call colchester and ask for MIke stebbings,
cheers

I paid about £550 for an Agency Power system (better exhcahnge rate then) and that included fitting. Still the best money I have spent on the car and I recommend it fully.
Another sensible price option at the time was Haywood and Scott.
I had the Oettle sports exhausts from Germany fitted earlier this week and agree it sounds absolutely fantastic and cost £405 as I purchased before they put their prices up.
The OPC fitter stated that it sounds better than the official sports exhaust.
There is not alot of difference at idle but after about 2500 rpm it sounds fantastic.
The only downside is that I keep opening my window and give it a bit of welly that my MPG has gone from 26 to 22 but well worth it.

The Porscheshop :worship: will sell you a complete C2/4 System from matched manifolds, high flow cats, and sports mufflers all in stainless steel for £1758.33 including VAT.
I had one of these systems fitted to my Carrera 2 and the sound inprovement was striking but so was the performance uplift and fuel economy improvement.
The Porsche after market "switcheable system" improves sound but adds little to performance/economy.
The Porschshop also are very competitive on fitting charges if you purchase from them.

I had the Oettle fitted today, excellent value for money with a big grin factor. Other than video, I've never heard a PSE but understand this mod is quite similar, if so, then it makes even more sense.
There are so many threads relating to sports exhausts on this forum, which can only be a good thing.
I will post some pictures of the merchandise fraserb mentions. These exhaust systems are expensive and, as such, are quality items manufactured by Eisenmann of Stuttgart. The company can be found on the web. There is also some electrical circuitry, relay, loom and a vacuum control solenoid, reservoir, vac line that goes with it.
I have a PSE (Porsche Sports Exhaust) fitted to my C4S and describe the exhaust note as a deep, fairly loud note. The one thing the PSE can do (suitably wired) that none of the aforementioned systems can do is, at the touch of a button on the dashboard, be switched to quiet mode. The by-pass pipes are isolated by butterfly valves operated by introducing vacuum to the acuators. There is an automatic quiet zone between 30 and 50 mph (approx) which can be overridden with a simple modification involving a wire disconnection from a relay which allows loud mode at any speed.
Most people will say "I would never have mine switched to quiet mode as it sounds too good as it is" which is true, but there is the odd occasion when I prefer mine to be quiet. Whatever the reason... No matter how light I am with the throttle when manoeuvring, my PSE is still quite loud.
The pictures are genuine PSE mufflers, shown with valves, actuators and vacuum lines - now fitted to my C4S.
Sorry for the long post - but I hope it illustrates what the PSE is about.
PSE et al
I've been following the various sports exhaust threads with great interest and conclude that the PSE with its quiet option is probably the best but the most expensive because of its 'quiet' mode capability and the wiring etc.
However, the Oettle seems to give an equally good sports sound and appears good VFM, but what is it like cruising at 80 plus. I travel to the south of France a couple of times each year via the autoroutes. Is it too boomy and tiring whilst cruising for up to 3 hrs at a time?
Also, in this country are the noise levels legal for MOT ?
Cheers
Winco
Yes there is a decibel standard for the MOT - but I dont know the level.
I think I would prefer a full exhaust system change that gives, noise, performance and improved fuel economy.
