998R

For anyone considering a Kline exhaust, I had one on my 996C4S, it was beautifully made, soundly lovely, beautiful tone, no drone and not ear drum splitting loud.

Cheers,
Harry.

Again in agreement with jmartpr on the single pipe exhaust without valves. Don't need two sets of pipes with one over-dampened and the other basically a straight pipe out. That is what Porsche needs for Europe, but we don't live there or yet have their draconian noise restrictions. Some form of a full 2.5 inch pipe muffler like from the Soul rear end combined with Helmholtz tubes like JCR uses to further cancel out drone.

The Kline looks very interesting though since it has truly resonated OAPs with a proprietary flange to their rear section. The muffler pathway is a full 2 inches or 50 mm instead of the factory's, I believe, 45 mm tubing on the secondary section. So definite improvement there. The primary x-pipe at 2.5 inches or 62.5 should be flat-six heaven and sound great if there is enough damping from the OAPs and the secondary section.

On top of that, you save over 30 pounds for the exhaust and the OAP when built in Inconel.

I guess you haven't been tracking Dundon's Crack Pretzel?

I’m definitely looking forward to the Dundon street headers + crack pretzel! I might need it!

jmartpr

Yes...and again they will have a dual entry as on that post they clearly mention it will accommodate OEM OPF Pipes.....they need to do a single entry coupled with their own single tube OPF delete pipes....exactly the way Soul has done it.

Considering Dundon uses v-bands to connect their components I would I assume that they would utilize a single path if connecting to their own header/cat set up.

My exhaust is supposed to come in end of December/early January. I will not have them installed until april/May since I'm up in the Northeast and it will be snowing very soon. Car is put to sleep. I got my soul valve controller though which I will be pairing with the Inconel setup without the headers.

I have had fantastic customer service directly from Kline and I’ll definitely buy from them again.

How did you connect with them? And was there a discount if purchasing thru them directly? Thx

ForeverCar

That was about 5 to 6 years ago. IIRC, I reached out via their contact information on the website. They were quite responsive.

Discount wise, one of the sponsors on here might be able to give you the best price. Sam at By Design is highly recommended.

Agreed, Sam does give some of the best prices on Kline products

Calling Sam in the AM! Thank you. Im super interested in the Kline over Akra or Soul...

I don't think you will be disappointed with Kline quality, and Sam has outstanding customer service. I had a full Inconel headers + Cats + X-pipe Mufflers set up on my 7.2TTS and it howled with a GT3-like sound in the upper rpm. Really missed that TTS.

Kline is a beautiful quality exhaust, especially their inconel line.

If anyone is interested in KLine units, please feel free to contact us via text, email or PM.

Any update on this? I'm itching to hear the exhaust even though I have one coming anyway, but I'd rather not wait until Spring lol. Also I didn't order the headers, so your video might change my mind and I might add headers
