Default Supercups/RSRs in Atlanta

Hey Folks,

Newbie Rennlist member, first-time poster, and new 993 owner here. I'm just transitioning from ten years with a daily-driver '88 Carrera to a new-to-me '95 993 coupe. My car is completely stock at the moment, but of course I have several mods in mind. After I get the car lowered (H&Rs and Bilstein HDs), I want to do something with the exhaust. I've read a variety of threads from the archives with peoples' perspectives on both Robin's RSRs and the Fabspeed Supercups, but I'd sure like to hear them both in person before making a purchase decision. I do tend to like things on the loud side, but I want to hear how loud those Supercups really are...

Are there any Supercup or RSR owners in the Atlanta area who'd be willing to let me hear their cars before I lighten my wallet?

If you are planning on driving the car on the street a lot the Supercups will probably be too loud. I have them on my car right now and if I drive more than 15 minutes I had to put in ear plugs ... no kidding.

That being said I ran them at our Driver's Ed at Carolina Motorsports Park this past weekend and they sounded and worked great. Oil temps were down, etc.

One of the funnest parts of the day is in the morning at work driving up the parking garage ramp with the Supercups...

I drive everywhere with my Supercups. They kick a$$! I love em'. If you don't mind that your car sounds like a race car, it's awesome. They are a little loud, but you actually get used to it. I did!

Welcome Chris, I have RSRs and can help you out. I made the move from an '87 daily driver to a '95 as well. I live/work downtown, happy to meet up somewhere. Send me a pm and we can swap cells/emails.

Hi Chris,

Weclome to Rennlist.

I am in the Alpharetta area. I have Bilstein/HR combo and RSR's in my cab. If you don't hook up with SFreeman and want to hear the RSR's send me a PM.
