Are you saying you can buy turbo tips and then disconnect the pipe that leads down to the stock tip and add the new turbo tips?

Suggestion

Again look at your current tips on your car and see if they use a uptube, I believe you will need the uptube because the connect for turbo's have a different exhaust setup than normally aspirated cars(c2,c4) the turbo's exhaust exits straight back and don't use the uptube configuration to connect to muffler.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

hello, where should i look for couple of dual tips for my C4S? i dont want to spend a fortune... so used parts or aftermarket will be the best solution for me... thanks

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i saw something around on fvd... ebay... but some of them seems to be done to be fixed in the back, some others have another hole with a small part of "tube" in the top!!! what is the difference? if someone have a link where to get them (for C4S!!!), please report...thans

POST 3Original post

ciao fabry, you mean these? http://e-partssales.com/Merchant2/me..._Code=996sport

POST 4Original post

There are some on ebay for sale for $289.00 I called the guy and he will come off the price some 10%. They are made by Schnell.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

spidervs, yes.. id like to get something like that. jw, i saw those ones too. do you have a 996 c$s too? please let me know then if they are ok!

POST 6Original post

I have a 2000 c2. Bought them and I like the way they fill the bumper opening. Also they have a more aggresive look than ovals.

POST 7Original post

Sunset sells them in the $500 range. I replaced my ovals with these quads and they look terrific on the car.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

jm and other guys, what do you think of these? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3ARTQ%3AIT%3A1

POST 9Original post

Those are for turbo's. They mount up different than standard 996's.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

jw, i contacted them and they said they are ok for my C4S. now, im confused...

POST 11Original post

Generally, the back of the duals or ovals have a up tube that connect to the outtube of your exhaust. Look at some other tips for 996's and you will see that connecting up tube I'm speaking of. Their add says turbo on it, not 996 c2 or c4.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i know what you mean. but i thought that "tube" was for "before 2001 996". mmmh, i will check better. thanks

POST 13Original post

Go to ebay under the heading of exhaust for porsche 996 and scroll through all the tips and you will see other tips for models up tp 04 and they will have the uptube I am speaking of.

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i checked all offer, for turbo and non turbo.. 2001-2004 some of the tips have the tube, other dont! some are for porsche 98-05 other only for 01-04. jesus... im getting mad!!!!

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

here again. i checked with pelicanparts the dual tips for normal c2/c4 have the tube the dual for turbo dont but the C4S is not there...

POST 16Original post

Go look at your car. If your existing tips have uptube you will need a tip with same connecting setup. I believe the 01-04 need a longer tip to stick out of the bumper further. most after market mufflers are made for 99-04 fitments. Tips for these years need uptube to connect to muffler. You can always call your dealer and talk to parts guy.

POST 17Original post

I saw schnells on the vividracing site, they look just like the factorys to me but ALOT cheaper, I would check those out.

POST 18 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

jw, i think i found the solution. please, if you dont know what to do for 10 minutes, go to see carnewal.com they divide the dual tips for p96 in 2 categories. one of them is called: Twin Tail Pipes for P96 C4 Turbo Look (these ones hav no tube!!!!)

POST 19Original post

Turbo, GT2 and C4S has the same tips and are interchangable, just diffrent P/N's

POST 20Original post

The twin tailpipe for 02-04 car catagory, I believe is what you need. These are identical to what I have. I bought schnel's off ebay. The other catogory says for turbo. Again look at your current tips on your car and see if they use a uptube, I believe you will need the uptube because the connect for turbo's have a different exhaust setup than normally aspirated cars(c2,c4) the turbo's exhaust exits straight back and don't use the uptube configuration to connect to muffler.

POST 21Original post

Are you saying you can buy turbo tips and then disconnect the pipe that leads down to the stock tip and add the new turbo tips? I didnt know that was possible.

POST 22Original post

I believe the tips are welded to the connect tubes. Turbo tips connect at a straight shot,so to speak, whereas c2 & c4's require the connect tube to go upward to connect to mufflers. Look at your current tips and you will see or go to ebay and there are alot of tips for sale that you can see the difference between turbo and regs.

POST 23Original post

First of all, I want to make sure everyone is one the same page, we are talking about Turbo tips fitting on a C4S not a c2. If you look at this ebay ad, its for stock C4S tips (from a 2002), and it clearly shows that they clamp on and are indeed removable from the connecting pipe. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsc...spagenameZWDVW

POST 24Original post

fabry - those tips will work just fine on your C4S. I bought the same pair from the same guy on eBay for my Pcar (C2 with aftermarket exhaust so needed turbo-type tips) and they look good. Am happy that I saved a few ducats and they have held up well - over a year. Bonus - any old muffler shop will be able to stick them on for cheap too. I went ahead and had them weld mine into place just to be sure.

POST 25Original post

In www.fvd.de you can find these ones I love them , 'cause they have separated pipes, and look similar to 997 PSE

POST 26 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

but if you notice, they only are for C2/C4 and not C4S!!! i will go to porsche dealer to ask for pull picture of the c4s pipes and will eventually find out if they come with tube or not!!!

POST 27Original post

Thank you! Hopefully this will answer our questions.

POST 28Original post

According to carnewal the C4S tips do not have the connecting pipe http://www.carnewal-europe.com/cpx_p96060.htm

POST 29Original post

You're right The 4S/turbo rear bumper is different to C2/C4, and these tail pipes don't fit. What a pity, they are owesome

POST 30Original post

tipes you might like just listed on ebay pg. 8. Just like ones you have been looking at,price is cheap $217.
