Or, with virtually no exhaust. Its loud enough that the camera was vibrated out of the garage. Way too loud!!

The best sound that I have heard from a 993 engine is on my track car
RSR headers, normal cats and supercup exhaust generation 1 with wrapped inserts.
It is not too loud and it really screams on full throttle. Where the normal mods that you hear is more of a very low end rumble, on my car while at idle it rumbles , under throttle it goes to a high pitch scream. Sorry i have no video, but I may have one soon from a track day I just did this past Sunday. When I have it I will post a clip.

Thanks guys for all your comments. I guess the sound of the 993TT is just that - different.

Wonder what solutions can be offered to make the most of it though..

Is there a noticeable difference in sound going from k16 to k24 turbos?? Or is it marginal at best?

As I said, if I get a turbo, I would need cats to make it street legal. Wonder if Chris (DACH) has something in mind for the turbo.. Modest when crusing in town and at idle and nice and deep and more of a scream at WOT.. doable?

I'm at work now Tony but will check your clip when I get home.. GHL bypasses.. Gemballa mufflers.. Will look into it!

Of course, this, and any other opinion you get, are just that, opinions.

I get tons of compliments with the supercups, like- "thats best sounding porsche I ever heard."
