I ran these on my MK1 with Cargraphic 200 cell cats and stock headers.
Leading evidence: 'Run these' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion).

That is correct and they will not sell you the ones for the 3.6 because they have not been tested on the 3.4.

When you change the exhaust system on your car (no matter what) you will change the performance characteristics.

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.

Hey guys,
Finally came to a decision that fabspeed mufflers does not make me happy. Thinking of selling it and putting on full exhaust system. Anyone heard of DESIGNTEK? Doesn anyone run FVD's full exhaust system? Any suggestions on full exhaust systems?
Cheers
Sounds good. Not to loud and no drone...There are two sound clips on the Cargraphic web site. One is the sport and the second is the Sport Super Sound Export version which is what I have. Check it out.

I have fabs on my GT3 and think they are pretty ok. Not the greatest sound but better than stock and I pass sound at the track which was important. Fit on one side was great, the other side needed some work.
100plus;
We have available a number of exhaust brands. Have you ever considered Remus? They cut their teeth with Porsche and have expanded significantly with OE contracts as well as their brand. Very good quality, saves weight and improves performance....

I have a full FVD setup (headers, X-Pipe 200 Cell Cat's, Brombacher Sound exhaust). Not to loud but sounds good when you get on it. Sorry no sound clips (note to self:...need to make exhaust video...)
Custom ceramic coated...
Some exhaust designers go through an elaborate process to test thier systems for performace increases (as well as sound, etc.). I cannot speak for others but I do know that Cargraphic and AWE build thier products in line with continued performace testing. When you change the exhaust system on your car (no matter what) you will change the performance characteristics. You may lose performace, you may loss low-end performace and gain high end performance. Something will change, so know that up front..
I agree with this as the 200 cell cats--IMO do work. As far as mufflers, I had Hergesheimer MotorSports in Laguna Hills cut a set of 3.6 mufflers in half, totally gut them and then weld them back to together. We are running them on my friends 996 which he tracks. This a nice mod, not loud but a nice sound. I ran these on my MK1 with Cargraphic 200 cell cats and stock headers. It was a good combination with increased performance at the low and mid range curve.
I just bought a set of M&K mufflers from a fellow member so il throw that in here.
havent herd them in person yet but heres a couple vids

I would save my money and not get headers as the stock OEM exhaust manifolds are good and you will really not get much by changing them. I like the Cargraphic 200 cell cats and would recommend them and do believe they are a benifit (they cost a few $$ though). I cannot comment on the Fabspeed mufflers as I do not know much about them. You can try them with the cats and see if you like that combination and if not always change them later. It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
can't go wrong with cargraphic super sport and 200 cell cats... good stuff and great sound...
my personal favorite is PSE for 996; I'm installing FVD 100 cell xpipe cats this week as it will "turn up the sound"... can't wait!
well if you would have listened to me in teh first place and got the Tubi's like i said to, you would not be making this thread... click link below

your gonna love this setup... I hope you have the electronic on/off, it really comes in handy when you need to sneak out of the house for a sunday drive.
Haha, i can't get the tubi mufflers except through my dealer in singapore ... Tey charge an arm and a leg for the tubi muffler so i went with my alternative, Fabspeed. I like the fabspeed, only thing is it drones but it is livable.
I was just wondering if i swapped out the CATS for fabspeed's X-pipe would that reduce drone.
Cheers
none of these parts do anything anyways... only sound... Headers do give a overall nicer sound...
i hope you dont think you just gained 10+ hp, infact prorably lost some..
one of the best sounding "mods" for a stock exhaust for sure...
if you can get RUF or PSE exhaust they also sound great but $$$ ... for the money FisterD wins.
