Fun video to watch too, nice video of a 944 on the move.


So does anyone have an exhaust that sounds similar to this? I really like it and would like something similar.

It sounds similar to mine, however from the video mine is probably a touch louder. I have a Lindsey exhaust with a Lindsey muffler ( unfortunately it is discontinued, because I love the sound).

Well that's a bummer. I wonder how it compares to the Borla. What size is your exhaust? 2.5"? 3"?

It sure doesn't MOVE like stock... but it's like mine when it was stock... more engine noise than exhaust noise.

Exhaust noise comes from many variations of things.

Exhaust size.
muffler type
muffler material/packing
Exhaust housing size
amount of boost ran
Camshaft - agressive cam will alter noise.

I thought the same thing, but maybe it was required at that track.

That's as good a lead as any, I'll go with a Borla when I get the LR exhaust.

Sounds pretty similar to my Borla. XR-1 or something. Hard to tell from a video but does sound similar
