Exhaust choices
#31
Bought my car with B&B headers and exhaust already installed. Too loud at idle for my taste (and my wife!), but they sound great at 3k+ Ive never heard the stock exhaust on a TT, but it just seems like to much trouble to change them out.
If it aint broke...

Thats because you're inside a quality car with good sound proofing.
I wasn't anywhere on the throttle and I thought I was coming up the road quietly, yet my friend heard me coming up the street from a good distance away. Step on it WOT to short of red line and they are loud.

My Motorsound airbox is louder, IMO.

That really is the point-the RSR muffs are only a subtle move up from stock-definitely quieter than F II's.

I've come from loud motorcycle pipes in my past that would make Fister IIIs sound lame. I like quiet now.

I have RSRs and don't find them that loud at all. A couple of notches up from my Motor Sound muffs.
What I like about the RSRs is that they are some of the lightest cans out there. Lighter than any of the Fisters according to the data they have provided on Rennlist.

No one talks much anymore about the original Fister LPMMs (Fister I) but I have them as many others here do and love them. Very natural sounding for an air-cooled Porsche and plenty loud enough. With the motorsound mod on the airbox and wide ovals they seem perfect and natural to my ear......and, yes, Darin still does them.

I'm hoping for that 911 sound in the opening scene of LeMans. Nice!

I guess the bolts never seized in place in your control arm. Butchers would break them off and hope to drill them out straight. I got mine out without buggering up my control arms. That takes ingenuity and patience. Now you know why I don't take my car to a shop. That was one bolt, by the way.

A 993-savvy shop would know that the bolt is not threaded into the control arm. The bolt simply passes through (or at least should).
No need to drill anything out, simply tap the old bolt out, replace the already corroded HW and clean up the arm.
It is common for corrosion build up to hold that bolt in place though. It can be deceiving.

Yup, and that is exactly what the case was. And you couldn't get any rotational movement without snapping the head off. That would have been a class act. Seized as in 100 blows to the bottom of the bolt barely got the bolt to even budge.
Anyway, I'm not the first person to encounter one that seized. Andreas came across one as well.
