I just realized you're laying on top of an old Fiat Spider. I had one of those., it was a fun car! Same color too!

Update.... new clamps for the tips should be here courtesy of fabspeed wed... apparently my clamps wont work... although I'm disappointed they will still be on the car.. i wanted something bigger to go with the bigger sound... after spending the $ on the mufflers I'm not going to spend another $350 on tips.. argh...


absolutely! as soon as I can drive it again I'm game :-)
I'd love to do a whole group meet as well for the PNW crew!

regarding Tequipment tips for MKI, I think fly996 had a set in the for sale for awhile, he came down to much more reasonable price recently.. check if they are sold yet. I found my Tequip tips from LA Porsche dismantlers, they looked new with some minor bottom scrapes and I paid only $200+shipping! check them out!

Found the link to fly996's MKI tips for sale, that's a good price!

How does the exhaust sound on the 996? Would love some video!

I will def do a vid.. but I don't have the tips on it currently and don't want to run it much with the hot exhaust not being pushed out the back of the car. as far as sound.... AWESOME! :-)

WOOHOOOO!!!

I love the comment... "That's good" as in OK DAD, that's the last time you get to push the loud pedal !!

dont sweat it, your motor is designed to rev - in fact the factory did it the first time it started before it was even in the car

bkjwhipple

oh, I rev the pi$$ out of it ;-) just never free rev... that's rough on a motor... I only do it under load. :-) Porsche may do it.... but Porsche also wants me to buy a new one! lol

ivangene

good point!
I am growing more used to the "free revs" but since I was a little tyke I knew that was a seems fairly common and I cringe less than I used to

Sneaky Pete

Great sound. Would love to drive next to you on a highway sometime.....

Barn996
