Suggestion

Without question you must have the factory sports exhaust system fitted,it is the finest sound in the world.As Sarbs says you can overide the factory setting for passing the noise test between 25-40 mph.The dash switch allows you to turn off the sports mode completely but mine seems to be welded in the on position permanently.An absolute must.Regards, SIMON.

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.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 996 c2 was going toget the oem sports exhaust but i'm not sure about the sound if it sounds good and i have heard you have a switch so you can make it quiter. I just want one which is loud but a nice loud. And is the switch any good any one help me ? Migration info. Legacy thread was 2053

POST 2Original post

Exhaust system is excellent, it gurgles at tick over and is just awesome when you accelerate (11miles so far ). I've had an over-ride performed by my dealer on the system so it doesnt go into quiet mode between 25 and 40 mph, the switch can still be used to manually go into quite mode if I ever fell like it (never ever)! The sports exhaust is definately the first option that MUST be put on these cars! Migration info. Legacy thread was 2057
