FINALLY! PSE got installed today, just ran down Orange Turnpike in NY, WOW does it make a difference. I thought the car sounded great before, no comparison. Can't wait for the wife to hear it rumble in the garage. Next up, silver gauges. Thanks for all the endorsments, your were all right on the money. Garv
Congratulations! I love mine. Give it a couple weeks to break in, it will get even better.
Garv, Where did you purchase the PSE? Did the dealer give you a PCA discount?
I bought it from Justin at Brandywine Porsche, $1,499.00 including shipping. He's great to work with on any parts. BTW, where did you get your Avitar, it that your car?
Yes, that's my 40th, photoshop background deleted from a pic I took at the dealers lot before I drove it home. Was just foolin around while on vacation. Back to your upgrade- I have Robin Sun's RSR mufflers on my 993 C4S (and love them) to bring back that authentic 911 sound and was wondering what options wouldnt be that obnoxious for the 996. Sounds like you love the PSE. Any drone in the cockpit at 2500-3500 rpm on the highway?
You guys are killing me....I really want a 40th anniv....but still only have 19k miles on my 2000 996 c2 coupe...I think the 40th is the bast car for the money at todays prices.... Enjoy Them!!! Robert
PSE is great. One of the other guys posted this link yesterday to Porsche's website that lets you play a sound file of a 911 with and without PSE. Anyone interested in PSE should check it out (when you get to the page click on the 911's engine): http://www.porschedriving.com/the_cars_flash.asp
Congrats! PSE is the best
I don't notice any drone but my ear may not be like yours. At idle, awesome, launch thru high RMP 3rd, even better, highway cruising speed perfect. There were so many guys on this site who have owned several 911's who raved about the PSE I felt I had to go for it. Drove around lots of country roads last night and may make me rethink installing the XM radio I ordered, why ruin the now built in music. By the way, the sound clips do NO justice to the actual sound. This car gets better by the day, got to get to a DE track event soon. Garv
Hey Garv-I put mine on 3 weeks ago--it totally makes the car!!!! and the smoked side markers!!! Ive become addicted to blipping the throttle to hear the sound Mike 40th 911
I was afraid you were going to say that. OK, OK, you sold me. Another DIY added to the Palm Pilot. BTW, I never listen to the radio in any porsche I drive. In the 914/6 you cant hear it anyway. In the 993 with RSR mufflers its pure music of its own. Each is a unique growl/snarl. Sounds like you guys found musical nirvana for the 996.
YEAH the install wasnt too bad--really straightfoward wrenching and wedging mufflers in and out. A lift would be a breeze --i did it on my back with a jack --but i enjoy doing it myself Mike
PSE is the best!! Enjoy!
you guys really make me want to get PSE. I would like to hear PSE and Fabspeed side by side. Any volunteers in Seattle? (Eastside) I will buy double tall :-)
Congrats on getting PSE. I've had it for about 4 months now and if you like it new, you'll LOVE it after 500 miles. The growl gets deeper. PSE is the best upgrade for the 996 that money can buy! Enjoy! Mark
Heading on a blast up to Maine in 2 weeks so the 500 miles will be achieved in far less than a few months, can't wait! Garv
