997.2 RS with headers, 100cell cats, and bypass will kill it every time for me. Rumbles, rattles and hisses at idle, screamer all the way to redline like a caged lion in the back, healthy gurgle on deceleration. Mezger GT1 to the core.
The 991 gt3 has some intake chamber noise piped into the cabin to artificially help its exhaust note. Perfect match with the doppelkupplung.

The 997 can't match the 991 at the top end of the rev range, mainly because it can't reach as far, and the race-car "whump-pop" that you get from the exhaust with every PDK upshift is totally missing from the MT 997. 991 GT3 for the win....

That is ironic though because the 9A1 is not a race-bred engine, it began life as the same motor in my wifes 09 CarreraS, she makes the same :whump-pop" sound with her PDK too, nothing special. The "race cars" you are referring to are the 997/991 with the M97 and sequential box.
We all know the 9A1 in the GT3 is not race proven, yet if at all
Far from it, but time fly's. I take it you are a millennial and whole manual transmission thing might be confusing and stressful for you and alot of 991 gt3 owners. I'll tell you what though I will consider the 991 GT3 when I'm retired and asking wth happen to my social security contributions.

The downshifts in the 991 GT3 is epic.
Even better than the "whump" upshifts.

It's always the same when you move to something new,
MA176 engine is now ready to go racing. debut in 40 days time.
I have had 993RS, 996.1 GT3 and can say without doubt the 991 GT3 sounds better inside the car than those two models but cannot comment on the other models. I have SW installed and my buddies on the track say it sounds epic between 8-9000 when I pass them. My 993 has a happy cam LWFC motec and custom cat less exhaust. It is also epic but as I don't pass those guys so often on track they never tell me how good the exhaust is lol!
