I haven't ruled that out. Actually come summer-time I might... I don't think it'll end up as nuts as your yellow one of old tho....

here's another one of the car doing 10s.. but you can hear how loud it is at the end of the run still.

you fellas have too much time on your hands
How does the sound level of factory cats + straight pipes on the non-turbo motor compare to turbos + factory cats + straight pipes? I tried this setup on my non-Turbo 996 and could only make it down the block before turning back. Do the turbochargers tone things down a bit? This would be track-only use unlike you crazies.

Sharkster,
Is the whole exhaust pipe coming out of the turbos that wide, or are the tips wider than the rest? Could be a dumb question but my knolwedge of the 996TT is close to zero.
I have 3 1/2 inch pipes coming out of my Garrett turbos (993TT), no cats, only a middle mounted open muffler (more like an empty box) and this thing is VERY loud. Any suggestions on how to be able to tone it down for street use and then back to normal for track?
I read somewhere on RL about someone who added some kind of a flap inside the pipe that could be turned open and closed from outside..
My understanding is that if I reduce the inside diameter of one of the pipes with a flap or welding a small flange, I should not feel any hp loss, any views or help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Jean

Mine is 5 inch straight from the flange of the turbo and back. No bends.. nothing

I would use the flap only on the street, so performance difference should be negligible according to my tuner (Todd K.) if I do it on one of the pipes. I need to find that thread with the adjustable flap.
Thanks, amazing car.
