Another exhaust sound data point
#737
After 2800 miles, I am finding the OEM exhaust to sound MUCH better overall. It still suffers from multiple personality disorder, however, I found the sound when on throttle between 4000-8000rpm to be absolutely fine. At low rpms it is quiet, but since I cruise at low rpms, I am not sure I want it loud anyway. Although wind management in the Spyder is quite good, there is still wind noise, and a loud exhaust on top of that may just be too much for stable cruising with the top down (or up since it is a poorly insulated top). I was going to go in on the Akra OAP group buy, but I am going to hold off. I want to hear some more good sound clips. It may still be worth it for the power and torque gain, but really, when I am in a spirited driving mood, and keeping the revs up, the exhaust sounds great IMO.
Does anyone truly not like the exhaust sound when on throttle, and in sport mode (valves open) between 4000-8000rpm?

Sounds great! So, that's the X-pipe racing exhaust, right? I've been considering that setup. Are you using the oem valve control, or an aftermarket valve controller? Also, how bad is the drone, considering you have the delete pipes as well? Only in taller gears when cruising?
Would you call it a very loud system? Thanks, and enjoy.

I liked this a lot.
Too bad it's that expensive.
And Porsche's warranty is way too strict
