There is no Fister hack. It's a Gundo hack. Fister just does it in a really pretty way.
Give credit where credit is due. GUNDO is a member here and his modification.well documented in old threads.

I disagree: A Fister connects the muffler inlet to the outlet. Gundo adds another opening in the muffler (PSE style) and connects that to the outlet.

It's not like you can search this board for Gundo's original thread about his hack. Oh wait, you can.
Jeezus, I get tired of fixing this misinformation.

Iceter... It is your destiny to pick up and carry the mantle now...
For the record... I have been schooled on the history of the gundo hack. Iceter knows all about it, so I will take his word for it

Apologizes if I am wrong on the terminology. I did not do extensive research on the history and naming convention of the hack. The shop knew what I wanted when I said Fister hack, a bridge pipe between the two pipes going in and out of the muffler. I did not want the other hack connecting a new port on the muffler to one pipe.
Exhaust mod - clarification of Gundo and Fister This is where I got my info.

Gundo hack v Fister
Fister hack is when you pay $449 (starting price) to Fister for modified cans. Shipping is expensive too. The hack is identical to Gundo hack - connects inlet and outlet tubes on a standard 996/997 exhaust can.
Gundo hack is when you carefully instruct your local shop / expert to do the work - usually like $100
Resulting sound is identical. The same, and both just as awesome. And both about exactly the same as the overpriced Porsche Sport Exhaust.
Funny, and I don’t know when they started this , but it’s now called the “Fister Sport Exhaust”
AFAIK, the Gundo hack pre-dates the Fister. But who really knows or cares at this point. All I care about is having as many P-cars on the road sounding as good as possible.
I don’t come round these parts very often anymore, but we do occasionally host awesome PCar events at my pad in southeast CT
YMMV

Fister has a nicely made product. But it's a Gundo hack done really well, nothing more.
I was piddling around the other day looking for Gundo's thread so I could have it handy to post whenever these threads pop up. While searching, I was amazed at how many websites go out of their way to incorrectly describe the hack and other mods.
It just goes to show how easily one website or post can be used as a reference and then that same bad information is picked up by others and propagated as definitive truth. It's scary, really, if you consider that it could happen with information that is actually important.

"Hmmm...…..a sound clip from the inside looking at the tach" Because I did the mod for me, the driver, not or you, listening toi exhaust from my rear end....
If what I had done is a Gundo hack invented by Mr. Gundo then I salute him. Yes, Fister makes a clean swap. That said, if what I had done was a Gundo, was is the other hack called? Gundo 2, Electric Bugaloo?
