Pretty sure the car will remain very drivable, which is a problem on road as where are you going to use all of that performance?

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am seriously considering increasing the bhp and improving the sound of my Gen 2 Turbo Cabriolet. I hope some PH guys may have done that in the past. The process I am looking at are Capistro Exhaust, remap and improved air filter. I believe it will total about 90hp improvement. Anyone had experience of a) is the power upgrade actually deliverable and noticeable and b) is the sound better and c) is the sound obtrusive and does the control system really work? Any advice or thoughts would be welcome.

POST 2Original post

Have a look at the Sharkwerks exhaust upgrade as they sound epic on the Turbo's and finally achieve giving them the supercar note they deserve! http://www.sharkwerks.com/products.php?pid=329 Chris

That Sharworks unit sounds great. Also seems a lot less parts to change than Capistro. The thread is silent on bhp change though - does it improve performance?

POST 5Original post

Very good experience with Europipe exhaust on Gen 1 Turbo, but these cars will never sound as good as N/A 911. Not sure why you would want to make a Gen2 go quicker in the UK, remember you are just taking yourself closer to that custodial speeding sentence unless you save it for the track Pretty sure the car will remain very drivable, which is a problem on road as where are you going to use all of that performance?
