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.

X-Pipe with extenders.
I'm going to install this little guy tomorrow. Do I have the extenders in the right ports? I'm assuming they belong there because that's where the cats would be. The job looks pretty straight forward, any advice is welcome.
Thank you. -T.J.
P.S. X-Pipe is by Speedtech Performance Exhausts
Up date! X-pipe installed. Sounds amazing. I will post a before and after video of the exhaust note soon.
Glad to have these off of the car.
Dumpy old cats removed from my 996.
You don't need cats in your part of the country?
I also went with an x-pipe but with the cats still on it. Curious to hear what yours will sound like without the additional restriction. Also what mufflers are you using?
Hi guys, sorry it's taken me so long to respond. Here's the problem with recording a video of just revving the engine while parked, it does the sound no justice. The sounds the car make while driving are awesome. Fast acceleration verses winding out the gears and down shifting are what you really need to hear. It's loud for one thing, I've had coworkers tell me they hear me around town. At idle it's very quiet, get the RPMs up around 4K and it howls. The sound now matches the aggressive look of the car. I'm very happy with the x-pipe and recommend it greatly. I will work something out to video the car on the road. -T.J.
Nice review! Glad to see you are enjoying it, Tom!
Thanks, Jeff!
BTW, everyone - I have a few 996 X-Pipes pre-made and in stock right now! No lead time - ready for immediate shipment!
