Optimization of the nut behind the wheel. This modification can be costly in terms of time and money, but the rewards can last a lifetime and are ultimately more rewarding. Better yet, they are fully transferable and do not have to be sold or traded with the car itself. Try it.

Thats true, but the fact is that the Tubi Quality is by far the Best and you get what you pay for and i like to the Idea of Less Weight and Some kind of HP Gain compare to the PSE.

I called brandywine out of stock should have some in a couple of days.1499.00 no tax with switch.2hrs to install without switch 4hrs with.95.oo per hour around 400.00.also called suncost 1803.00.Carlson porsche 1995.oo 9hrs to install 150.00 per hour.

the cars have 2 different sounds. The PSE was VERY refined and awesome sounding. Mine is refined as well as more gnarly...

I dont know how much the headers compunded the situation but basically, i could live with either.

The benefit of the Tubi over the PSE is that there is a tremendous weight savings.

do you actually have tubi on 996? can you describe it in more detail?

Also very useful when you are in the presence of, or being followed by, the police . . . Ask me how I know

I don't know. I come and go from my house at all hours of the night. Part of the job. PSE is open all the time. If you cruise at @2000 rpm in 2nd or 3rd gear depending on the street, it's just a low rumble. Not at all obtrusive nor un-neighborly. No barking dogs though almost all homes here have dogs, no flying boots nor fish

TD, do you have a noise ordinance in your neighborhood?

No, but I live in Georgetown, which is one of the oldest neighborhoods in the district. It is full of brick townhouses and houses so the sounds just echoes and reverberates. It is very, very loud if I get on the car. When i see the police, if I do not have the PSE on quiet mode, I get nasty looks and I can almost see the finger going for the siren. On quiet mode, I just get an appreciative nod . . .
