The FisterD hack was $100 for take off mufflers, $170 for the hack and about $100 shipping to and from Fister's place. I installed myself which took about 1.5 hrs. on a drive on hoist.

PSE installation is about $400, because of the wiring into the ECU.

doc - i put on the PSE. i chose this for 2 reasons. it's factory, which does not make that much of a deal for exhaust and because i can turn it off and on. fwiw,

I think I have the best of all worlds. AWE headers and CATS with a REMUS exhaust. Plus an x-51 Air box, RSS PLENUM, RSS Throttle Body and APR software.

Nice performance with a little different noise. The AWE exhaust was too loud for me. At highway speed I get more road noise than exhaust noise just like stock but the car does sound better. This set up is not for people who want a loud exhaust.

I tried just putting the Stock exhaust on with the AWE headers and CATS. The noise level didn't bother me it just didn't sound that good. The Remus pulled everything together with a very tolerable noise level, european, I would guess.

Don't by this REMUS if you want a loud car.

Did you sell your pse? I have an 06 c2s and would be very interested in buying your system.

Yes - my PSE is sold. Will be shipping it shortly. Sorry.

There are two PSE for sale on 6speed. Check them out!

I would check out GHL if you want something fairly loud. Although not mentioned often they are sponsors and do make a great and fairly affordable exhaust.

I've run both FS and Tubi. IMHO; Fabspeed for a grunty, more muscle-car sound, Tubi for a higher pitched, European, more refined sound...once again, IMHO. I suggest the exhaust and matching 200 cell Cats for the full experience. Unless weight loss is a concern, I wouldn't bother with the headers.

Expect to pay 2x over the cost of the Fabspeed for the Tubi system. I would also suggest the WERKS/Champion F77 Intake System or a similar CAI to get every oz of performance and acoustic value out of your set up.

Concur...I have the AWE exhaust in my 997 and it is awesome. Just finished shooting a few tunnels today on the way home and man did it and the car put a smile on my face. Also I can personally vouch for AWE's warranty and customer service. Second to none for what it's worth to ya!

I gained 22 hp at the wheels (from 270.1 to 292.1 rwhp) on the dyno with my Carrera from a Fabspeed exhaust and a K&N 63 series intake. How much was due to the exhaust over the intake? Don't know. I never dynoed them separately. By comparison, you can talk to RUF who will tell you they see 0 increase on the dyno with PSE even on a Ruf 550 Turbo.

Sound wise, it depends on how much sound you want. With the Fabspeed there is no resonation at cruise and it is very mild sounding under low rpm acceleration. It does open the sound up more at upper rpms. If you are looking for a louder, meaner sound that can be heard blocks away then go Tubi. It is the loudest exhaust I have heard on these cars. Both are straight through tube designs which should add some ponies versus the restrictive 3-chamber design of the stock/PSE systems.

Would LOVE to hear from anyone who has tried AWE cats with Borla cans. I"m looking for the power from the cats with a deeper, but not too loud, noter.

I have'nt een them on n NA Porsche yet but a lot of peopl are installing those electronic exhaust cut-outs. There is a switch in the car that has ten settings and it will open a flap in the exhaust to ten different sizes giving you different sounds. It is installed before the mufflers. fully open it is like running an open header and it gets progressively quiter with every setting all the way back to stock when close.

At first it was popular with the hot rodders but now I see a lot of BMW and Benz guys putting it on there car. Maybe you shouldl look into this option if sound is what you are looking for.

The exhaust cut-outs sound interesting. Could you enlighten us as to who sells them and maybe a website or URL?

Thanks!
