Buying a spare exhaust and then having the Pedro PSE mod done on it will probably run ~$500 total.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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

Came across a German company called Sommerfield Tuning and their eBay store. Anyone familiar with the company or their Sport-Endschalldämper (sport exhaust)? http://cgi.ebay.com/Porsche-Boxster-986-S-Sport-Sound-Muffler-Exhaust_W0QQitemZ370244771415QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK _CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item56344ede5 7 Gotta love the owner's "Ger-English." I get what he's attempting to communicate, kind of. It looks a lot like the PSE (Pedro's Sport Exhaust). I'm not familiar with the real PSE to know whether that's what they're trying to do a low budget copy of. It appears to be a nice product (all stainless), but a bit spendy at ~$1100 delivered. I like Pedro's solution.

POST 2Original post

That is just a modified stock muffler. You should be able to find someone to modify yours for around $300.00 USD. [IMG] [/IMG]

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yes, I know, but that one's all stainless. Certainly some value in that, though not a biggie for me. Buying a spare exhaust and then having the Pedro PSE mod done on it will probably run ~$500 total. Minimal resonance, a bit more sound than stock, and a stock appearance are my priorities. Based on what I've heard in person and online, I'm pretty sure most aftermarket exhausts will be too loud for me. A friend who's been into air cooled 911s for many years commented about how quiet my car was the first time he test drove it. That got me thinking...
