I got a quote from my dealer for installing a Tubi muffler on my 2006 997S. The quote was around $3700 and included a $500 adapter pipe they said was necessary in addition to the $2499 for the muffler. Other than the muffler, what parts do I need if I want to re-use my stock tips and install the muffler myself? I missed out on the group buy.

Sounds really high. I paid 2050 for my muffler on a group buy and 300 to put it on. Use the search function for tubi group buy and get the name of the shop in Miami to ship it to you.

I found the name and number for you.....Thomas Prado....Absolute motoring......1 800 680 6685.

That is high

Local dealer installed headers and mufflers in 5 hours. I do not know what they are talking about for a 500.00 adapter pipe. Does seems over the top. BTW, you will not be disappointed. They scream at 4k-7k and when your driving "normal" there are no cabin resonances and quiet.

jnx

Don't know why it would take 5 hrs to install headers and mufflers. I did it myself in about 90 min. without ever doing it before. 5 hrs, what a rip.

+1 for Thomas...
I think someone on here not too long ago was selling their tubi's

Had it installed locally for 250...(I think)

Tubi is expensive and Fabspeed or AWE mufflers sound just as good built just as good or better for well over $1000 less!

I have to disagree on the fabspeed build quality....Ive seen tips and mufflers with really crappy welds and not aligned properly.Having heard all three when I was debating my purchase I went with tubi.

The Tubi comes with the correct adapter piece when you order it... the S one is a little bigger to accept the stock tips.
Its a VERY easy DIY.. cost me the price of two Rhino Ramps (as these cars dont have jacks anymore :-()
Its about a 1 hr to 90 minute job. Worst bit is fitting the tip clamps over the new pipe... pretty tight fit.
It is a very nice sound :-)

Points, Gone through 2 sets of Fabspeed muffles 13,000+ miles on my cab no isses with welds fit or finish and the lates bolted right up and already have 3 DE's on them with no issues plus street driving.

If you want Tubi that is cool and I am not slamming them but there is not much difference for the extra $1300 you will spend over buying Fabspeed or AWE muffler cans.

Yep no argument just stating there are other choices with awesome quality out there for a lot less money...but...if someone has there heart set on Tubi mufflers I say go for it they sound nice...one of the more quieter mufflers on the market.

see ya! Mike
