Anyone do a Crios hack on a 997?
I've thought about doing the Gundo Hack...seems pretty easy. I came across another idea that the Boxster guys use...called the Crios Hack. You basically slide the clamp between the cat and muffler over to expose a slight gap. You gotta do it on both sides, obviously. I did it and it sounds pretty good. Nice sound when I'm on it, but quiets down totally when I'm cruising.
Question: any reason not to do this? I mean other than being a bit crude. Does it hurt the car at all?

Kebal, I would not want to create a air leak at the header/cat joint. this could cause fumes into the cabin and also compromise the strength and integrity of your exhaust system staying on the car. If you just want a better sound for you car then just simply replace the rear side mufflers with the aftermarket brand of your choice.

Stuck in traffic, or at a long stop light, will be detrimental....kind of like smoking !/2 a pack of cigarettes in 3 minutes or so.
Why not just take a screwdiver and poke holes anywhere in the exhaust system unitl you get the perfect sound you're looking for?

Is this Crios fella still alive after driving his car? I don't think I'd want my name associated with this "hack".
