I have a wife and neighbors, so provided high rpm sings a bit (and maybe a few pops on over-run), that might keep me happy.
Compared to my friend's C4 with a full Ruf system, the Cayman sounds anemic!
This is what my previous car sounded like (stock), so you can imagine my disappointment with the non-PSE Cayman:
Vielen dank!

No, definitely it will be different (obviously) and much much, and much, more quiet. But I have to say that in the higher rev part the carnewal one make a very nice metallic note. Too few pops, though.

It also means I am able to pass shaken later this year without having to swap back to an OEM system.
Notably too, shaken looks at obvious mods with extra scrutiny and the Carnewal passes that test straight out of the box!

I've got the Fister mod on my 987.2 2.9 Cayman. Sounds good but still neighborhood friendly. I have the Fister on my 986 boxster, similar but the 986 is louder at idle.

I recently did the Carnewal on my 987.2. Word on the street is the Gert changed the magic formula in 2018 to make it better. Mine is the first I have heard in person, so I cannot verify any difference between current and previous mod. HOWEVER, I can verify that the current GT mod sounds a heck of a lot better than stock. It is definitely louder and more aggressive, especially when you get on it. You can actually hear an exhaust not in the cabin now, but it is not drone. Ripping through canyon walls or past barricades is such a treat with the sweet reverberations of the GT exhaust filling the air

Out for a blast around the Shuto-ko, through its many tunnels, and down the Wangan for just that tonight...

Just like in the movies? 😛
I keep telling my wife I want to take her to Japan after going to Nagoya and Kyoto for work... There is no way I can go back without doing a cross country tour in a Porsche now after your thread lol.
