Very nice!!! Now let it warm up a bit so you can take another clip that shows what it sounds like when you bang it off the rev limiter!

OK...add Stage IIIs to the list...
1. suspension upgrade
2. three spoke wheel
3 Stage III exhaust
4....
and I have only had the car for two months. My wife is really going to wonder why I need all of these parts for a "new" car that was justified to her as being immaculate, and needed nothing. Oh well.

Will do... I was running short on time. Wifey #1 was getting a bit annoyed that I decided to spend so much Sat. morning time tinkering with Wifey #2....


She has no idea what I was really doing. When I walked back in she just said "Why does your car sound louder? Is something wrong with it?" -- hee hee....

Default Were you driving through Decatur on Saturday afternoon?

I was walking my dogs in Decatur yesterday (close to the square) and heard the melodious sounds of a LOUD flat six and wondered what it was. Then, a black 993 went by with a great exhaust note (too loud for my marital bliss, but a great note).

Was that you? I whistled to see if I could talk to this bad dude with the great exhaust, but you were probably in the warm confines of a 993 with Stage IIIs, with the windows rolled up.

And, if it wasn't you, it was someone else with a very loud, great sounding 993.

The clip sounds great. How would these compare to supercups - other than the fact theres no resonance at 3K.
