I recently had a used exhaust installed and am surprised at how loud the exhaust is, particularly between 2k and 2.75k RPMs.
Is this typical? I understand that the exhaust is intended for Race/Performance. But even as a weekend car, I am concerned whether the exhaust is too loud.
Otherwise the exhaust looks sick and has increased the power of the car, particularly on the high RPM end.

Seems quite a few of them end up on the re-sale market. I guess Fabspeed could do a better job explaining that ideal application of this exhaust is the track.

100% agree, but seeing how most car manufacturers tout race-inspired engineering, people are fooled to believe anything race related is good for them.

I agree, from 1-3k there is crazy drone and it is rowdy. however, ohh sweet jesus it sounds pretty over 3k. I mean just beautiful
I'm running 82mm tb, comp plenum, long tube headers no cars, fab supercup, and a tune. also, oodles of suspension goodies.

I have this exhaust (be it on a 2.9 liter) on my Cayman. It was very drony at about 2.5k rpm for about 8k miles and then subsided a BUNCH. It is bliss beyond 3k rpm all the way up. It is far from obnoxious in my opinion and would only swap if I were given a Soul exhaust for free.

I have a 2010 Cayman S PDK with Fabspeed Catless race headers and a number of exhaust including the Supercup.
IMHO this configuration is intolerable on the street. The drone between 2K - 3K rpm is ridiculous.
You end up trying to drive around it but it's annoying because that range is cruising speed from like 75 - 95 mph.
On the track it's a lot of fun and sounds like a formula 1 car. The best is cracking off high rpm shifts. Intoxicating.

haha, yeah. I use this on the street here and there. It just is so much better than a CRV (for short trips). I have a spare exhaust, much quitter, but I have a diffuser on the rear and no tolerance for back pain the next day ![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
DO you have a sound clip of your Cayman?
