Default I have a B&B system

Hi Andy:

I have a dual B&B set up and it has a great sound (not to mention performing really well). It is very nicely done with Stainless heater boxes. If you are interested in seeing it, go to the "Tom's Strosek" thread.

Best regards.

Tom

FULL DISCLAIMER....I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT 930 EXHAUST SYSTEMS..

that said, of all the vendors that I deal with, some very regularly, and some not so much so, GHL has always been absolutely delightful to work with. I would go with them on that alone.. On top of that, if Steve W says GHL, it becomes completely a no-brainer for me, which is good, since I know nothing about 930 exhausts(see disclaimer above)

I'm still looking for a sound bite of the Millemiglia on a 930. I've heard one on a Ferrari but want to hear the 930.

The GHL setup that I had emitted a loud drone which almost made me dizzy at the right RPM. I didn't like that too much and ended up going back to stock. However, a lot of people swear by GHL so that leads me to believe that my setup wasn't right? Maybe it was the convertable?

James,
Keep in mind that a cab in general will drone on coupes that don't. With out a roof that sound wave drops in behind the car and bounches off of the windsheild. No joke, the cab will be louder than any other car.

I have had both. I started with the Fabspeed, sold it, then purchased the GHL. I am very happy with the GHL. The Fabspeed was a low burble that reminded me of my '74 Camaro, but at full throttle w/ the unmuffled wastegate was a bit too much noise for a turbo cab. Sure was pretty though.

The GHL I purchased from Stephen is a throatier tone that sounds more european than american to me, especially with the cab top.

Blaine, did you get a single or dual outlet? I just wonder if this would make a difference in the amount of noise. The dual GHL on mine was unbearable.

I have the GHL dual out and found it better than the Fabspeed for noise.
