Default Looking for suggestions for initial mods



Had my 2012 911 turbo for about a year now and I'm ready to do some minor mods. Primarily I would like it to sound better/more exotic.
So where do you all suggest I start with? Recommendations on exhausts?
I'm thinking about $10k to spend.
Thank you

I personally recommend Speedtech's 3" X-Pipe. Sounds very exotic with very little drone.

Intercoolers, exhaust, and a custom tune... Europipe sounds great! Kline Inconel catless for that exotic sound. Beautiful car btw.

Thank you all for the input. I'm thinking ECU and a Europipe are the right starters. From everything I've read, the pipe will be a small gain and a huge gain on sound, but the ECU goes hand in hand for a power upgrade?

Where's the best place to buy these from? I'm in the Cleveland, OH area and nothing comes up online

Easy. Custom dyno tune, high flow catted or catless exhaust and intercoolers.

Night and day difference guaranteed. Car will be a monster after that.
