Hi guys, the silencer boxes on my car have just started to go slightly rusty along the lower front corner of the seem. Before they get too bad I would like to upgrade. Do you think to go genuine (and no I haven't got pse) or what aftermarket variants are there that won't be too loud as I'm not one for frequenting max power events lol

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.

if the corrosion isnt too bad, Carnewal might be able to fix the welding & also uprate the innards whilst you are at it. A friend has an 3.6 996 & had the same problem & got himself a pair of replacement Carnewal boxes & they sound great....just like an air-cooled 911 at certain speeds. There are other manufacturers including Dansk & they too have a good reputation.
I have a pair of genuine Porsche back boxes of a low mileage 996 4s coupe that have been garage queens for the past 5 years that I need to shift if interested, pm me
Gert Carnewal's exhausts for the 996 are inexpensive and sound superb. www.carnewal.be
