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

Looking to quiet down the car a bit. I have a 996 with fabspeed maxflo and fabspeed x pipe. I am finding that at 1800-2800 rpm something is vibrating in my brain. Has anyone swapped the x-pipe with no cats to an x-pipe with cats? If so, does it become more tolerable noise wise? Don't want to reinvent the wheel here, would like to tweak what I have, but if I need to I will probably go to a PSE system which I have had before. Thanks

Stay out of the 18-28K range, these engine live above 3Krpm.

18-28K range - your 996 must be special.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Gotta go through 1800-2800 to get to the good stuff....

POST 5Original post

Don't give up on the Fabspeed MaxFlos yet! See my thread. I'm hoping to fire it up this weekend.

POST 6Original post

I have Fabspeed max flow system, fadspeed intake with speedtech xpipe with 200 cell cats and it’s not super loud at low rpm and sounds awesome WOT.

POST 7Original post

I have Fabspeed Maxflos and the catless x-pipe. Theres no vibration from mine. Check that nothing Is touching. X-pipe and sub frame?

POST 8Original post

At 1800-2800, not sure any NVH is intolerable, but would be hard to determine if coming from motor mounts or exhaust system. Running Fabspeed xpipe and stock mufflers.

POST 9Original post

I have a Fabspeed xpipe that has 4 race mufflers welded in I can sell you.
