He's going to use 3/4 inch pipe, which I'm assuming will be OK.
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.

Hoping some knowledgable guru can help me out here.
I have a 2000 3.4 tip C2 and have just brought some 3.6 mufflers, the idea being to get them welded with the bypass mod and keep my originals standard.
I've been reading loads about the bypasses on various sites, and now I'm wondering what bypass mod would be best for what I have.
Do I go for the PSE I bypass mod and weld a pipe from the inlet to the outlet pipe (heard this is best for 3.4 boxes), or with the PES II bypass mod which opens up the 3rd outlet in the box, and weld a pipe from this new outlet to the outlet pipe (heard this is best for 3.5 boxes)?
I'm tending to lean towards the PSE I mod.
Any thoughts or recommendations?
Thanks
Lee
Thanks guys. PSE I it is. Exhausts dropped off with local welder this morning, with pics of what to do. He's going to use 3/4 inch pipe, which I'm assuming will be OK.
Need to start getting quotes for removing the old mufflers and putting these on. Anyone recommend anyone in the Leicester/Derby/Nottingham area to do this?
If I can I will. Not sure how good the old blueberry will be at recording sound.
The CAI kit went on at the weekend and that has made a slight difference to the sound over 4k revs. Hoping the exhausts will release the full beast!!!
Yes - I used stainless. There are a couple of old thread on here which have some photos and the material spec. If you do a search for "Oettle" and user "Richard H" you will find them.
Being a bit thick - PSE 1 mod is better than PSE 2 mod full stop, or just on 3.4 cars fitted with 3.6 silencers?
I'm about to modify my forthcoming C4S hence the question.
The silencers on the 3.6's were 'tuned' for a better sound when Porsche did the facelift. That's why they are better than the 3.4 cans if you are going to start with a new pair of silencers. I know guys who have done the Mk1 mod to 3.6's and they have been very happy with the result.
You'll need 2 53mm couplers for cat to muffler, replacement mounting bolts if you shear any a mig to tack them in
A grinder and 2 replacement tip to box clamps these come with bolts
I gall of pen oil and some goggles or a eye wash kit
Don't look at the manifold bolts or the cat to muffler bolts!
Enjoy!
