It's certainly possible, but we do not have a 993 turbo on hand to confirm any necessary modifications for the tips to sit perfectly in the bumper.

I am dealing with this now. Darrin is going to make me a set of adapters. I am sure he would love to help people out with adapting these tips to older maxflows. I only found out about this possibility because of Roche on here and messaging Darrin. He will take care of you.

I spoke with them today, and apparently the polished version was actually chrome plated. They have durability concerns, so have pulled that option. Not sure why they wouldn't just polish the stainless steel like OEM, but whatever. Both brushed and black look excellent.

If anyone has a vehicle with our old maxflo system installed local to us, please give me a call and let me know!

In regards to polishing stainless steel, of course we have the ability to do that. However, despite our polishing process stainless steel does not maintain it's polished color. Those that have received our X-Pipe in it's highly polished form, installed in it, and took a look at it again after a few drive/heat cycles can tell you that is begins to rainbow from the welds and eventually take on a nice golden tinge. Just polishing stainless steel tips is not enough to prevent discoloration from the heat, and is why we don't offer that option.

I realize that I'm trying to make this simple: IMHO, All you need is a set of the tips to the old system. Then make a fixture so that you can duplicate the same overall length by increasing the extension out the back of the new tips. I can mark how the rear valence intersects the tips with masking tape. If this makes sense, I can ship you mine on loan for a few weeks.
