the revs in the video are only about 3000-3500 blips. the car was somewhat cold and i didn't push the revs. that's the reason i want to do another video once the car is warmed up. for now, a 200 cell cat seems unnecessary, but we'll see how things progress.

next is to finally install the Kline Innovation 200 cell cats and mufflers on my GT3. i've been way too delinquent with that project. must stop being lazy!

I currently have a Cup pipe and have been looking at getting the Scart Swan Neck or doing the Rennline cat by-pass. Does anyone have input on what way to go?

I have a cup pipe + fabspeed cat bypass and like the volume. I think cup pipe + secondary bypass will be very loud....

I've been mulling going for a full bypass.

I love my cat bypass + primary muffler + seconday bypass (long neck bypass) - but recently heard a video of a guy out in Utah and his old 964 that had it completely bypassed and loved it. Love how yours sounds, though I figure it will sound different with a cat bypass as well.

Looking for a used cup pipe myself now.

i started with a stock cat, primary muffler, and swan neck. the next step was the cat bypass, but i found it a bit bassy and muffled at the same time. i found it lacked the crisp sound i like - that bark, that snap. i knew a full bypass system was going to be too loud, so the next step was the cup pipe and return to the stock cat. last option was going to be a 200 cell, cup pipe, and swan. turns out, the stock cat actually gave me the sound i wanted. i almost always do 200 cells, but in this case it wasn't necessary.

for me, the cat bypass simply distorted the sound to something that lacked character with the primary in place. i have heard a cat bypass, cup pipe, and fister secondary and that sounded very nice. it's just a matter of swapping items out until you get the sound you like. retaining the stock cat was perfectly acceptable to me. this is the only car i run a stock cat on. 200s with someone's mufflers usually opens up the sound i want.

I'm running stock cat + cup pipe + stock secondary, my next steps are going for the Dansk Sport secondary (cheaper to get it in the EU than having mine Fister mod) and maybe going for cat delete. This cat spec seems to be critical to order a Wong chip, so I'm looking for advice here.
Someone has a look a like combo?

Jaime, at one time I had almost this exact setup, but with a 200 cell sport cat, in addition to the cup pipe and Dansk Sport secondary muffler (which I had to import from the UK as it's not typically stocked in the US). Also with a Steve Wong chip.
The sound was fantastic, possibly my favorite sounding combination to date. I think you'll be pleased!

I have a cat bypass, cup pipe, and Fister secondary. Not sure how the Dansk secondary differs, but FD modifies the stock secondary to bypass some of the internal baffling. It's pretty loud, but I like it. No drone at speed.

I have the future setup you're looking to attain. (SW chip, stock cat, cup pipe, and dansk secondary). Cold starts are pretty epic and loud so be prepared for that. With the windows up I don't notice if it drones possibly b/c i'm enjoying the drive at all speeds.(I typically drive with windows down) On drives 2 hours or more I will wear ear plugs just to save whatever hearing I have left.
