After purchasing a few different exhaust solutions for my hopefully soon to arrive BGTS 4.0, I had bought flat6 OAP's and the caragraphic valve controller, but figured it was silly to install something I didn't love just to remove it and eventually get the system that most people claim is one of the best for this platform, Now I am even more excited for my car to arrive and throw this system on with the valve controller. I am hoping this with combo with the BMC filters gives me that perfect amount of induction sound+ GT3 wail. Mods are piling up! Burm tweeters, spacers, filters, clear markers, short shifter and CGT Shift ****.

Ok... so had a chance to take the car out for a spin with these new deflectors and they work much better than the AWE ones, I was running with the windows down at every practical speed and wind noise was never noticeable. I found myself surprised when I looked down once at my speed with the windows down and simply didn't hear any wind noise. One window, both windows, partially, or fully open... these deflectors all but eliminate in cabin wind noise. Zero buffeting.

My Kline is about 2 weeks old now. It is a very nice sound and you will enjoy it. Not too loud even with valves open all the time. Having said that, I’m not sure why the system you purchased is so discolored? Hope you got a good deal. New ones aren’t that expensive in stainless steel.

You won't be disappointed the Kline is amazing, with the BMC filters it completes the car. I have yet to close the valves, Well I just checked function of the Cargraphic controller and they have been open ever since under 4k its louder than stock but sounds right, over 4K it sounds like a true GT car. How do you like the Berm upgrade, I thought about doing it but the cabin is so damn loud anyway didn't thing it would make that much of a difference.

I am very excited, everyone keeps saying it is the best way to get that OEM+ Gt3 tone/ sound, without crazy volume or drone (JCR for example, a lot louder I have heard) I leave early in the morning and have lots of neighbors so I figured the valves closed mode would be good for that + cold start, as well as some of the longer highway drives. My car still hasn't arrived ( currently living it up at the german port for over a month now) but I don't imagine the tweeters will be game changers but anything helps. I bet with a hardtop CGTS it will make more of a noticeable difference than the soft top, but I got them for under $100 brand new so I figured it was worth a shot, if it makes a difference great, if not, oh well.

@Phillip Berk If your doing it yourself, Which if you have any mechanical ability and tools it is a super easy job, Only need two people for about 5 minutes other than that its a one person job. As a guide I followed this https://911maniac.com/kline/ and this youtube " " as a starting point to see what I needed to do. I used all the factory Porsche hardware and ordered new Porsche gaskets as well, but it did come with some. Only issue I had was some studs came out but my car had 6k on it. You should not have that issue.

Most of the items I have saved in my Amazon shopping cart went up in price WTF!!!
Most of it is automotive related so Im not surprised, and Im not willing to jump on other so called "Prime Deals" when the discounts are a meager few bucks.
