Default FVD and Fabspeed exhaust volunteers in South Florida

I am in the process of selecting an exhaust system for my 2012 997.2 C4S.

I already experienced the Tubi and the Cargraphics.

I am still trying to find a member with an FDI porsche like mine with either the FVD Sport PDK or the Fabspeed Maxflo mufflers/x-pipe exhaust system. I even talked to Rhonda @ FVD but she couldn't locate one either.

If any member in South Florida has either system and would care to meet with me to showcase it, please PM me.

Keep it simple, don't over think it.

My friends 09 C4S PDK had the FVD. It was very loud and did not have a great tone. Would post a clip but he has since sold it.

I have the FVD exhaust on my 997.2 with stock header and cats. It is loud but I like the tone. I do get some drone around 2,900 rpm, but I have a 6 speed so a quick gear change eliminates the problem. I've had numerous compliments regarding its "mean" sound.

I've had Fabspeed, Tubi, FVD (RichFL has it now) and PSE.

By far the FVD was best. Saves a ton of weight and sounds best. Then Fabspeed. Build Quality of Tubi wasn't the best where the brackets welded on as those broke. Tubi sounded ok, not great. PSE not a fan of at all.

I have the FVD exhaust and have neither drone nor excessive sound. It is quiet below 3k rpms and quite nice and racy above. I control it by how i drive. I think its intoxicating and completely love it. I have a clip, but it must be noted that at warm up for the first 90 seconds it is grumpy until the throttle change. Then it operates as i described above.
