Hello, I am

There have been many discussions on exhaust options here. Suggest you search this forum using "muflers" & "exhaust". You'll get about 100 threads with a lot of good information on exhaust options.

I have the Fabspeed mufflers and really like them.

Default I have Evolution Headers, Exhaust, and Intake on my

C2S Coupe. I love them, sounds great but it is louder then stock, perhaps too loud for a Cab. Perhaps just the muffler and intake would be a better fit for your car. If you aren't worried about sound levels then go for the Evoms products.

Currently the headers and exhaust that EVO distributes are from Fabspeed. I confirmed this with them (verbally) them about 3 months ago. THe Fabspeed mufflers sound great.

Default I am sure that it is the same stuff

I talked with the guys at Gemballa are selling H&R springs that are no different then H&R brand springs.

As for the mufflers and headers they do sound great, but I would still say perhaps too loud for a Cab

I'm still installing my Fabspeed kit, but it is amazing. The quality is top notch, super solid stuff. Like in the video, when you knock on the stuff or feel it, it doesn't echo or feel tinny. The shine&polish is amazing, too bad you'll never see most of it. I'm still intalling it but everything fits okay.

As mentioned in a previous response... Evo is currently using FabSpeed as their product. They are one in the same. In the world of High end Porsche product you have the following choices with good reputations...

AWE
Porsche Sport Exhaust
Billy Boat
FAbspeed/Evo
Tubi/Champion
Coming soon or so they say, Borla

I chose AWE, I have no connections to them professionally. I believe their quality, sound, performance are the best combo. Plus it is built here in the states and they stand behind it...

One more thing before I get attacked... I did not mention the usual suspects as far as major Porsche tuners... I did not list them because of high pricing and lack of regular North America Availability, especially in warranty situations. Those would be:
Ruf
Gemballa
Techart
Cargraphic
etc, etc...
