Default Fabspeed Bypasses & Daily Driving

SO, now keep in mind, I am young and come from a Subaru crowd, where louder is better.....SO, I am looking into some Fabspeed cat bypasses for my 993 C4S. Can you guys please post your experiences with these. I have B&B mufflers, whicha re decently loud. I will eventually be getting RUF mufflers (which I heard are quite quiet). I want to know everyone's opinions of these. ANyone else makke them besides fabspeed...that are worth talking about? THANKS!

I have Fabspeed MaxFlo and because of the recent track event I put on the bypass. Sound wise its loud and mean and honestly I really like it. Enviormentalist will have something to say but its just so... Porsche....

low end is slightly decrease but power do come on early and smoothly.....Have to keep the rpm on top of 4000 in order to keep the powerband.

They are loud. Very loud. I would say no if you use your car every day.

Default Bypass YES!!!!!

I have a 95' 993 with Fabspeed Bypass and Mufflers and the car sounds awesome, the power increase with the installation of a Fabspeed Chip and exhaust is awesome. You can drive the car everyday with great sound not to harsh, only when you start taching higher than 4K RPM does this beast wake up
And turn heads and people always ask, "is this a Turbo?"
To pass emissions I had the stock Cats modified with hiflow baffles and that’s how I pass
And still have descent power with the chip. Good luck

I am thinking about sticking with the bypass pipes, instead of getting the Fabspeed Muffler/Header combo due to the easy of setting it back to stock for emmissions. I think I will mate them to some RSRs. Or perhaps some motorsound mufflers. Any other isight as to a good combo? I want it LOUD....thanks for th elinks and advice so far BTW!
