Thanks for everyone's comment. I decided to post my video to help you decide. It seems "PSE...should I?" often comes up.
My car is not in the US, so there's no PSE for me to listen to. I did it soley based on everyone's positive feedback on this and other forums. So I hope this video helps you decide one way or another.
After two months, my feeling is if you have the money to spare (as its can be anwhere from $2500+ upwards depending on country) its worth it. Its a kick to rev up the rpm, going through tunnels, underpass, etc. The sound now matches the looks of the car. I didn't realize how loud the stock exhaust is. But the PSE makes it even sound better.
And in the video I cheated, because I removed the brown plug hack, so its always on. Neighbors be damned!

One question, how did you get the dog to bark at the same time in both videos?

dnp, thanks for taking the time to do these video's and putting them up on YouTube. That is a heck of a little climb getting in and out of your garage! I do not think a Porsche could make it if the car was lowered. Your car sounds awesome!

Love my PSE. As to whether it adds any HP gain, when I took the PDE course last year in Birmingham, I asked Cass Whitehead about PSE and he said that it does give maybe a 4-5HP gain. The reason Porsche doesn't advertise that it does is because if they did they would have to submit to a lot of other emission testing in order to have it approved. To avoid this they simply don't state anything. And whether it gave a slight gain or not I would still get it because I love the sound.
