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 guys i received my pse exhaust and will be starting the install soon. i WILL NOT USE THE SWITCH , it will be open all the time.i received several boxes withe clamps and pieces, i wanted to know if it would be a straight swap with the existing oem mufflers or will i need to use some pieces. i called porsche and they were not sure, before i start and run into issues it would be appeciated if someone can tell me what to do. Basically do i just switch the mufflers and use the existing clamps? or it there modifications i dont know about, if that is the case i will bring it to porsche. thank you eric

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

thank you Loren, so just a straight muffler swap using the same clamps and pieces! that makes my life really easy, thank you errico

POST 4Original post

Some of the clamps (for the cats) should come with the PSE kit. I reused mine. The tailpipe clamps do need to be transfered.

POST 5Original post

There's a faq on how to do this somewhere, just do a search. I would recommend installing the switch but modifying it so you have full control. I run it loud about 95% of the time, but it's sure nice to have a quiet car those 5% of the time when needed. And it is a really cool feature that makes people go wow!

POST 6Original post

that switch is a waste of effort. pse is loud only when you want it to be. use your foot and control it. ez.

POST 7Original post

I agree with Ben (and obviously, you, since you're not installing the switch) -- esp. if you have a coupe. However, there are times when I have the top down on the Cab that it really is nice to have the switch to quiet things for a while.
