i saw something around on fvd... ebay...
but some of them seems to be done to be fixed in the back, some others have another hole with a small part of "tube" in the top!!!
what is the difference?
if someone have a link where to get them (for C4S!!!), please report...thans

Default quad tips

I have a 2000 c2. Bought them and I like the way they fill the bumper opening. Also they have a more aggresive look than ovals.

Sunset sells them in the $500 range. I replaced my ovals with these quads and they look terrific on the car.

Those are for turbo's. They mount up different than standard 996's.

Generally, the back of the duals or ovals have a up tube that connect to the outtube of your exhaust. Look at some other tips for 996's and you will see that connecting up tube I'm speaking of. Their add says turbo on it, not 996 c2 or c4.

Go to ebay under the heading of exhaust for porsche 996 and scroll through all the tips and you will see other tips for models up tp 04 and they will have the uptube I am speaking of.
