Listening to YouTube exhaust sounds... came across this clip of a late model 928 with GTS mirrors. Headers are indicated, but nothing else.

Searched and found no references on Rennlist.

Anyone know the motor and exhaust setup? Me likey

MjRocket

Yeah that does sound pretty Bad A$$!

I'm curious about those wheels also.

The Forgotten On

I haven't seen a 928 doin' the donk before. I wonder if they drive fast enough to get the tires to rub.

I still love the old skool exhaust note!

I like that sound too. After watching that video the next one up was a 928S race prepped for an Italian hill climb. Has a very good exhaust note. The last 15 second has a shot of the car rolling past. Nice sound.

You could ask him on the comments section. Maybe he will respond

Yah, except my YouTube got kidnapped by my Android when it entered the Google Zone and I am still (10 years later!) refusing to pay their ransom of my privy information! However, we digress....

Any guesses on that exhaust, Mongo? You know I dug the Flowmaster 10's you had on yours!

Carlos, do you remember ever hearing my '89 GT exhaust? I got more compliments regarding the sound than any other aspect of the car. Both by lay persons as well as Porsche fanatics. I rarely used the stereo or a/c. It was pure mechanical music. LOL.

The exhaust consisted of:
MSDS headers w 3" collectors, Dr. Gas 3" X-pipe, 3" to 2.5" reducers, Spintech mufflers in the stock location, then back to a 928 Specialists RMB. Fairly inexpensive all things considered. HTH.

Mongo

I loved that system too but I kept burning my arm when adding ATF and got fed up with it. I decided to sport a single 3" pipe system after the cats. I now can add ATF to my heart's content and also realized I shaved some serious weight off the car. The new single pipe set up is probably only 25-30 lbs.

Your old 89 has a phenomenal exhaust set up, unchanged with the new owner. I keep trying to get him to sell it to me.

Thank you, Dan. Another sweet sound reference!

Hey Chris, I remember being across the parking lot and around the corner of the Banner Elk at one of the SITM when I heard your beast fire up - I wandered over to see who had that exhaust note! You already had a crowd around your car Thank you for the specs! Another x-pipe combined with chambered mufflers, like with Andy's (Mongo's) YouTube'd set up. That seems to be a combo that works on our cars, whereas a while back I had read some very useful exhaust threads on some Mustang forums where that combination did not work for them - I would need to find which generation Mustangs, however, since their configurations changed over some generations on where you could place exhaust components.

Yeah, I am struggling with the many trade-offs, but leaning towards my preferred sound being a priority - though I plan to experiment some, too
