I knew I'd find the right exhaust. So an FYI to those of you who thought otherwise.
Kreissieg F1 exhausts.

Yeah I saw about 500K yen for the exhaust and 170K yen for the x pipe.

It's a great sound, but I think I'd rather have $7K of sportbike personally.

Still I'm sure you'll love it! I've heard one in person, it's spine-tingling

Agreed... I have the PSE option on my C4S and it is pretty darn loud...

1st Gear - 0-7000RPM, screaming like an italian
2nd Gear - 0-3000 & 4000-7000 screaming like a gutural italian
3rd Gear - 0-2000 RPM gutural roar 3000-7000 screaming like a gutural italian
4rd Gear - 2600 - 6000 RPM gutural & very loud roar
5th & 6th great plain loud and deep and from the inside

so in short - else than 1st gear where you can almost emulate the lambo sound in its 1&2 gear (up to its 6000 RPMs then the rest requires a german castration), you will have your own agressive porsche sounds. So much louder that the stock sounds. Put it this way, I got pulled over by a cop in Boston because of excessive noise.

PSE is great but this is a different sound entirely. Listen to one.
