I personally don't give a flying squirrel turd that you think my car is too loud, seriously and unequivocally do not give a flying fvck. Yep, I can be very immature sometimes, my wife likes to remind me daily. The guy with the loud radio is a douche and apparently, because my car is louder than normal, I am too. I could care less, I will drive on and disappear down the street while you make a comment that I will never hear.
Exactly.

You might hear it...if you weren't already nerve deaf from all that racket you're dragging around with you.

Thanks for the education!

Thanks Tom... I'm definitely going to have to get one but avoid Mr Gordon.


Btw, it doesn't not do anything performance wise. I believe it reduces weight and there are small hp gains..

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but didn't 1analguy say he doesn't even own a Porsche?

I'm disgusted that this tread is on a Porsche enthusiast forum.... I wish I had the last 10 minutes of my life back.

yes 1 analguy doesn't own one yet. I am thinking a 918 with no gas engine may be perfect for him.
Just rolling on electric, you know so as not to **** anyone off except the blind guy walking across the street that doesn't hear him and gets run over. That's a joke BTW so don't anyone get all sideways on me.

The non electronic PSE, ie switchless, is always louder than stock. To each their own I guess. I love mine, nice burble under 3ooo rpm and get very camie and opens up above 5ooo rpm. I would think that you had the little pipe welded in between the two pipes. I'm sure you can either take it out, get a smaller connection pipe, or just trade someone for a stock briefcase muffler(s).
I remember starting my 18 foot DONZI in the boathouse. It has straight exhaust with water cooled mufflers, no silent choice,(or what I call mothers choice). My almost three years old boat was standing on the dock. He had a scowl on his face, shoulder raised up against his ears.
From his mouth, his words exactly.
" I don't like that boat, it's loud, loud like mummy".
I still smile, I still have the boat and the wife and the kid.
The other day I passed a ford mustang GT500 ??? something, going north, convertible. It rumbled by. I thought cool aftermarket exhaust, then he floored it for two blocks. My ears bled and windows shattered and broke windows like a sonic boom of a F51 in a orphanage. Wow what a ***** I thought. But mine is fine. As guess we can all rationalize anything we want.

attached is the cross pipe you most likely have. trade or try one smaller. not my photo

I bought it. It arrived quickly and as described. He is a top guy as far as I am concerned.
