I should make a video of my C4 with Motorsound mufflers. It's loud, but not obnoxious. Best part is I control the noise with the gas pedal.

It growls, snarls, & pops on decel. My wife can hear me coming a block away.

My dearly departed dog Charlie used to hear me a couple of minutes before I got home in Ruby. My wife could tell by his bark, that I was within a 1/2 mile.

What ever you do Guest89,,,,,take a ride in a 993 with the outside sounds you enjoy.

There is nothing worse than the interior ear buzz drone, I don't care how cool it sounds to the sidewalk crowd!

You can easily drive a car with Supercups to minimize time in the RPM range where they drone a tiny bit...just as you can drive the car without sounding like a Harley. IMO, it is the best sounding and I have have them for 10 years (I alternate the them and the Maxflos every year or so).

Does anyone in New Jersey run fister stage 3's? I would like to get some but I need to hear them in person first.

Update - recently had Fister Stage IIIs and Wevo engine mounts installed (harder blue pillow).

Fisters in conjunction with motorsound box sound great, but I will probably add sport cats in the future (I just want more sound). Wevos make a subtle difference in responsiveness; I actually like the increased NVH that's transmitted into the controls. Family and friends have ridden in the car and no one has complained about either mod.

I'm glad you like them. We are currently working on some 993 sport cat options. Should be doing some testing very soon

+1
The baddest sounding pipes for the P-car. I have had them for several years as well.

+1 for the Fabspeeds. They are also very small and very light.

Yeah, look at how the sport bike squids are being hassled, and for good reason. The trouble is, real motorcyclists get lumped in with them.

Mind you, its nothing that a can of expanding foam won't take care of.

I don't have a sport bike, and I don't like seeing idiots doing wheelies down the highway. But your smugness about being a "real motorcyclist" just reeks of bull****.

Yeah well, those "idiots" as you put it, are the ones driving my insurance premiums up.

As for "real", all they do is ride around in circles, park at doughnut shops, kick tires, stand around in their color-coordinated leathers and pi$$ off the general public. Most of them, they're not in it for the long term.
