Smile Will GT3 exhaust fit on C2??

I just head a 2007 GT3RS exhaust- Unbelievable!!! I AM WELL AWARE THAT THE ENGINE IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM MY 2006 997 C2!!!!! However, the sound was unbelievable. Does anybody know if the exhaust can be modified to fit on my car? Obviously the bumper, cats will need to be changed. Any help is appreciated.

By the way, I have heard about every after market exhaust available. Even PSE, trust me, nothing sounds anywhere close!!!!!!!

There are exhausts that sound as good or better - depends on what you like. My first GT3 exhaust listen was right before I took delivery of my 997S - great sound for sure, but too loud for my taste and I just heard might be too loud for the track (ie: LRP has noise limits that are pretty strict).

I currently have Fabspeed. I have heard/experienced PSE, AWE, TUBI - none sound the same as the 2007 GT3 I heard today, especially with the sport option activated! As far as db. It was not too loud. By the way, I briefly tried muffler bypass pipes! These are angree neighbor lound!

No, none sound the same - all exhausts should sound different because they are different. I tend to like them all as being somewhat individual.

How long could you really tolerate that in a daily driver or even a weekend car? I find the PSE with the switch is the best of both worlds. I can mute the exhaust when i'm on the phone or trying to mellow out (passing police cars) or turn up the sound when down in a concrete-lined underpass with the top and windows down!

I'll say this about the GT3 exhaust (and just about all after market ones I've heard), they are quiet and civil in your "around town" mode, which is say under 3,500 RPM. So whether you have OEM, PSE, GT3, AWE, etc. - I don't think any one of them would raise an eyebrow tooling around town from 1 to 3.5k.
