Taken from a thread I posted a while back. May help:
First, thanks to Darin for providing insight and inspiration. I wanted to do this myself (with a little help) to free up his time to get those Wide Ovals made up for us. Please do nto take this as a hit against FDMotorsports.
After giving plenty of thought to the exhaust and enjoying the Supercup rear sections, I decided to go out on a limb and create my own.
Starting point:
Split canisters showing filler. Yum.
Taking a look at the Stock Gillette exhaust from my C2S and comparing it to the turbo muffler, I figured the best option is to simply clean up the airflow. Notice how the turbo muffler has perforated sections that provide a clean pass through when exhaust is forced (WOT) but no cross tube (possible motor sound option as the car is optioned.
Split C2S muffler equipped with Motor Sound Option:

Removed internals that simply “dumped” gasses into chamber and forced them out the exit tube:
New elbows and another diction of perf tube in place:
Lastly, sent them out for a complete polish. Yeah, I know they will not stay that way, but if I keep on top of it and limit the amount of rain driving, they might pick up a nice bronze/blue hue as with my previous rides.
Next up- Dyno with Supercups vs. these. I expect a raspy sound as with the Supercups, but these look closer to stock and will permit the addition of the Fister Wide Ovals!

yeap with the stock mufflers you should be fine....i actually like the way it sounds inside the car, as I have zero insulation and the mechanical noise is very much like an older 911. As for the outside, the comment my wife made when I came back home after installing them is telling: "I did not hear you come in the garage" ! LOL

Thanks for that information. Any feeling as to which is quietest stocK?
Noise is becoming more and more of an issue at a local track that shall remain nameless, mine w/ tt sidemufflers and a cat bypass is borderline.
First noise abatement step will be to revert from Motorsound airbox to a stock one, and I'm thinking the stock mufflers may be quieter than the tts.
