I would have a good exhaust shop make you an exhaust. I had it done on my old 924S. It was like $220 with the muffler. It was 2.5" with a good magnaflow muffler.

If so, that's close enough to stock to me. It might have a little more pitch, but I like it based on these videos. It's not nearly as loud as the setup I'm running now....
That's the one, minus the smoke and such... I like it... and it is much better in person...

i've begun to realize that i really shouldn't judge things by videos, although it seems like sound is more telling in videos than the actual video itself, look at my dual exhaust, looks like crap in pictures and videos but looks pretty neat in person (ask doug or pat)

so i will stand by my previous opinion but add that the exhaust sounds like crap in those videos and that is as far as i can judge the exhaust

Question To those who are running a Dansk....

Where did you all buy your cat-back from? I'm having a hard time finding a Dansk for sale.

their selection seems to be decreasing over time, as at one point they had 5 different offerings from Dansk, now down to 2... and the pricing has gone UP

What I really liked about the Dansk setup is all the factory hangers are on the piece out of the box, making it a true bolt on plug and play install....
