Kline 718 GT4/Spyder exhaust
#46
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? https://www.instagram.com/p/CHTHLvcB..._web_copy_link

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.

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