Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
On the old school carburetors, us young gear-heads/Hooligans used to, on long decelerations, turn OFF the ignition and open the carb wide open to fill the exhaust with fuel, then close the carb and turn ON the ignition.
Leading evidence: 'Fill exhaust' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Fill exhaust' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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�ve driven many other performance cars in the past and thoroughly enjoyed the juvenile deceleration exhaust rumble / burble sound.
With my 2003 C2, I almost never can hear it happen, and if I do hear it, the sound is barely noticeable.
My car has stock mufflers with the fister mod, stock cats, and agency power headers.
FWIW - I think the engine / exhaust sounds great as-is, other than the little lack of crackly-pops.
Is anyone else here getting that fun sound? What system are you running?
People seem to like the Fister/Gundo mod, but to me it never really had that full depth sound. Went with Billy Boat exhaust and have been very happy with it. Has a great sound with only mufflers. There's a thread with clips of various exhaust setups that may be a good point of reference.
one of the most annoying sounds currently emanating from vehicles. The stupid burble tune turbo BMWs are absolutely awful.
If you don't want louder, you can maybe investigate if a tuner can dump some fuel into the exhaust on the overrun.
On Modern fuel injected engines, the fuel injection is turned OFF for the most part of the deceleration period. This is to save emissions and save fuel.
On cars with a more "sporty ECU program" the fuel injection is left ON on deceleration or may even be enriched to create some burbles, crackles, pops.
On the old school carburetors, us young gear-heads/Hooligans used to, on long decelerations, turn OFF the ignition and open the carb wide open to fill the exhaust with fuel, then close the carb and turn ON the ignition. It would cause a loud "bang" out the tail-pipe, sometimes even blow the muffler apart..lol.. Silly fun !!
If you want a few burbles,crackles, pops on the 996 on a long deceleration, just crack the throttle slightly while coasting, it will turn the injectors back ON while decelerating, you will get some extra noise..TRY IT !!!
Yeah, I don�t want a LOT louder overall. And I�m certainly not looking to be a tuned Bimmer bro with wake the neighborhood exhaust. Just want a *little* more fun.
I have the
top gear sports exhaust
and it burbles quite a bit on decel. I don't think it's too loud but as we all know that's very subjective. Weather is crap today, but I'll try to get out tomorrow and get you a clip if you're interested.
I have the sport version, which is the louder of the two. I personally think it sounds great and isn't obnoxiously loud. It doesn't have any real drone (again, this is subjective) and really wakes up at high RPMs. At 70mph, the wind/tire noise is higher than the exhaust, but I'm also in a cab...
As for the product experience - it came well packed with no damage and had fast shipping as I recall. For the money, and compared to other options, I'm very happy with my choice. I spent at LOT of time researching, listening to other clips, etc before landing on this. No regerts.
With all this positivity, they may have to send me a voucher or something!
I'll record a clip tomorrow both inside the car and gopro/bumper mount.
The new BNW burble is horrendous. Those guys deserve to be tarred and feather. Just horrible.
I have a 996 TT with a Techart exhaust and I think the sound is gorgeous. It sounds raw and rough, loud on accel but rumbles nicely and not too loud on nomral driving.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
