Can I order PSE from the dealer even if it was not a option on my car.Any idea of cost and time to put it on?Worth the money....Opinions wanted please!!!!!!!

Yes , but they over charge for it, When i was looking for mine The dealer quoted me $2500.00 plus a full day install.I ended up getting it for around 1000.00 and I installed it myself. Search ebay , i see them on there once and awhile or check with the board sponcers. Keep in mind my pricing is in Canadian funds. Good Luck

Do I enjoy my PSE??? ABSOLUTELY!!! Was it worth the money? YES.... But that's me. For most 996 owners, the answer is no. IMHO, the sound enhances the therapeutic effect of the driving experience.

However, many view PSE as a complete waste of money since it does nothing to improve performance. I've even been ridiculed at the track for spending so much money on something that doesn't improve performance. In fact, a couple of my "buddies" told me I could have saved a bunch of money if I bought a 10-disc set recording of their "vroom vroooom" noises for only $500.

So to them, the answer is "it's not worth it". They'd rather spend the money in performance enhancing items such as suspension mods, R compound tires, etc. etc.

My advice is to do what I did. Go to the dealer and test drive a car with PSE and judge for yourself.

That's odd. I get so many compliments when I am at the track. I have had just about everybody come up to me at one time or another wanting to know what exhaust system I had on the car and that it was the nicest sounding note that is out at the track! I even had a few people tell me that they intentionally went out behind me so they could listen to the sweet sound of PSE!!!!

I guess I forgot to mention that part. I've received a TON of compliments at the track and elsewhere. However, I'm sure the people who think it's a waste of money and don't know me that well are just keeping their opinions to themselves.

Bottom line, I'd do it again. I just realize that it's not for everyone.

Do you think the pipes will sounds the same on a C2 as they sound in a GT3?

TT Gasman

No bypas pipes yet, just Fabspeed mufflers, this is the first time I've heard the pipes in person. I definitely plan to get a set for track use.

Doug,
Do you install exhaust systems as a profession or as a hobby?
