Default Gundo hack hurt value?

Hey guys, I am seriously contemplating a gundo hack on my 997.1 S
right now it has no modifications whatsoever, its very very clean and I am thinking down the line if I ever sell it, will the gundo hack be a problem to a potential buyer?

If it does, that buyer should be looking at a Lexus. LOL. It's like any mod or even an option in the car. Some will like it, some won't. The good part is that you can easily change it back with a new set of cans.

Don't even mention it, and the intoxicating sound will earn you a premium

I wasn't sure either so hedged my bet. I bought a muffler from someone on this forum and had them ship it to Darren Fister. He completed his work, shipped it to me and I installed it myself. My old one is sitting in my garage so I can revert back if I ever have the urge. Which I don't btw but the next person might.

easy to swap original equipment back in. Can find stock mufflers on ebay all the time

Same here, although I had the hack done locally. I'd probably turn the car back to stock and sell the hacked muffler separately. I'd make more money!
