Thanks Dan! I should have checked there first. I'm thinking I might save a few more off the rear. After hearing Len's I'm wondering how they'd sound with the X-Pipes.

Those were summarized from a couple different people and that was why I mentioned the scale/material variances.

Don't make me stab you in the neck with a fork. BTW, likely coming up to Nashville this weekend.

Well I guess I won't be getting stabbed this w/e at least, I'm leaving for FL in the AM. Driving the Pepper as the 993 is still w/out a engine (or tranny) right now.

We'll have to get you up here for one of the Cars n Coffee when they start back up after the New Year. We shouldn't wait for the TN Tubs event.

From someone who worried that the Stage IIIs might be too loud and the Stage IIIs w/200-cell sport cats would be way too loud, I can't imagine what Stage IIIs with X-Pipes would sound like. But that's just me. Obviously muffler sounds is a personal thing. Maybe we would be able to hear them as soon as we crossed the OK/AR state line.

Hey Travis, missed this question, you probably have the answer but I weighed my stock against the stage III's before I sent the exchange back and the the stocker were right at about 4.5 lbs heavier.

Len, 9 total or 4.5 total?

Dan, I know this would be loud, but I'm also thinking about changing to 200-cell cats. Or maybe you guys will just have to get ear plugs when your following me.
