Default Fabspeed X-Pipe GTS Exhaust Sound Clip


I finished having the Fabspeed X pipe installed on my '011 GTS. I definitely noticed increased power and response. Fabspeed says their dyno testing shows about 29 hp gains. I don't buy that but from the seat of the pants I would say a 10 to 12 hp gain with a definite gain in torque is noticeable.

The sound without the PSE is definitely louder than stock and raspier. Sorry I didn't do a stock base line vid but you guys know what the car sounds like stock. With the PSA its louder than PSE stock, deeper baritone and raspier. I love it!

Let me know what you guys think!!!

Thanks.

P.S. I apologize for my dog Ranger. He didn't appreciate the reving and the video and wanted to let me know it.

Waxer, that sounds great!

I just got my 2010 with stock mufflers (non-PSE) and bought the Sharkwerks to replace the center muffler. No matter what brand of pipes you use, the most important thing is getting rid of the center muffler. I am looking to order PSE mufflers in the next week or so, and I hope my car sounds a good as yours does.

Wow, it sounds great Waxer, thanks for the video and feedback. The X Pipe upgrade alone makes a huge improvement with the PSE exhaust, so you never need to touch the mufflers. Its a big time and money saver for a much enhanced sound. Well enjoy it and keep that sport button on.
thanks,

That was definitely Ranger's approval!

Very nice.

I love your GTS.

First time hearing the 9A1 PSE... it does sound a lot more tame than the .1s.

Guys: Thanks.

The exhaust as you might expect sounds even better in person.
