I test drove a 996 with a sports exhuast and the noise and power was very nice indeed.
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.

I am looking at systems for my 996TT, but it appears the " Cats" also have to be changed, so it all becomes a little more complicated, not to mention expensive !!
Still be interested to know where & what you plan to go for
, Porsche do their own system, which includes a " mute" switch, for around town & track days, but they don' t make one for the TT, looking on Rennlist Fabspeed appear to be one of the better alternatives for power/sound, but there is a lot of choice.
I am currently trying to decide between a Fabspeed and a PSE for my 1999 C2 Cab and am hoping to stick my ear near a few exhausts at Eynsham to hear the difference.
I am told an OPC would look at £1,200 for a PSE fitted, without the quiet switch.
Would partyicpate if the price was right for a PSE - and it sounds better tan my stock exhaust
Well the thinking was a group buy of the official Porsche Sports Exhaust.
Then once bought people could decide if they wanted it fitted with the quiet button or fitted with the valves set open (which is a much cheaper option - I know a couple of Boxster owners who have fitted the Boxster version themselves in a couple of hours)
If I get interest I will try several places that sell them & see what best deal we can get.

I would be interested in this. However for the switch option I would need to listen to one first in order to decide whether the button was needed.

996 4S
I am not too sure about having a button to change the note of the exhaust. I think it will always be turned off. I test drove a 996 with a sports exhuast and the noise and power was very nice indeed. Not too loud and not too discreet.
I would personally prefer it a little bit louder. I am considering getting a custom exhaust done for less money and with slightly more depth. Also I have seen a 2nd hand GT3 exhaust system ( delivery miles ) for sale which is tempting provided it fits ofcourse.
I have the Cargraphic sports back boxes and would say am only averagely happy with the noise having had a Techart system before - I do like maybe above average noise! [
] The Cargraphic is more 'bass and throbby' and the Techart was very 'metallic' - very similar to a Ferrari 355.
For anyone around London/Kent/Surrey I am happy to demo the Cargraphic
Colin
I will definitely be interested if the price is right.
ColinC2: I will be interested in hearing yours. Whereabout are you. I am i Bexley(w/end)/Battesea(weekdays). Could meet somewhere in central London if more convenient. Any noticeable improvement in the response/flow through the rev band? What was the cost? (Email me if you would rather keep this confidential)
Just had my Mille Miglia all Stainless Sports exhaust fitted. Pure heaven to listen and no noticeable degrade in performance.
I was out for most of the day and didn't even turn the stereo on.
Gotta be my best investment yet..
