Default ZORK TUBE?

Does anyone have the ZORK TUBE by FABSPEED? http://www.fabspeed.com/911Turbo_930C2Turbo.html If so what do you think of the performance and sound? I am debating either a ZORK or a GHL system. Thanks for any and all advice! I need to get rid of the rusty ccan thats there now

I have GHL headers with heat, and a Zork.

I will NEVER go back to anything near stock. The sound is amazing, I can hear my turbo whislting even at idle...and the performance is outstanding...however it is not for everyone. The car is EXTREMELY LOUD with the zork, although it is much louder outside than inside...I can still hold a conversation while cruising with the windows up. Be mindful that the cops may not enjoy the sound as much as you do!!!

Here is a clip of my car at idle & revving, and me clowning with a few of my Honda turbo loving friends. It will give you an idea of the sound:

I have both, a Zork by fab speed that was modified and a GHL SS dual outlet which I might sell. The Zork is insane and loud but did up the "seat of the pants" feel so the GHL is on the shelf.

The Zork started life as this


and was cut to this



It was angled a little because the previous owner had welded a cute tip on it and I cut it off and welded it on an angle....still cool though--- cheers Mike

I have a zork and they are way too loud for around town in most towns. Way too loud.

But in the country they are fun.

I have a zork on my 79...i have a clip of it somewhere on you tube. Its not that bad. I heard from a buddy that had a zork on k26 turbo and it was super loud but on my k27 it was much better. I like that i dropped a bunch of weigh when i took off my fabspeed and put on the zork.

Well, I plan to drive it in town so maybe the Zork isn't my pipe. Thanks for all the help. My mech recommends the GHL stainless. Ir runs for around $850. I'm guessing that I will probably need to get a cat bypass since all I have now is a Ford cat to long tailpipe. Weird setup but that's what they did in 82' to meet emissions for the U.S. for this car during the conversion.

Here is a shot of Brian's Zork with the 934 WG/tube.
Just clutch it if ya see a CHP, sound goes away immediately

I love the sound and would never swap it out!

A bunch of us got together this weekend for a Eurosunday meetup. I came down a 6 mile 6% downgrade with a bunch of twisties directly behind Rod's zork....I thought I was back working the gang detail with 9mm rounds being fired at me. That zork is wicked. It doesn't do the "burble"....it flat fires rounds at you. I felt like yelling "incoming"!!
