Default WTB: Good condition aftermarket headers with sport cats

Hey guys, as title says, would like to upgrade my oem 997 gt3 headers/cats with something a little more sporting. I'm a bit picky when it comes to the sound produced by my exhaust combos, so buying new is always a bit of a risk for me so I would love to try to find something used first before buying new, if someone has something just sitting around taking up space. Not picky on brand (evoms, fvd, gmg, fabspeed, dundon, etc...). Only requirement is that the cats be less cpi than stock, and that they work with the stock connection locations to the side mufflers or bypass pipes (I'm running the fabspeed 1-in, 2-out non-valved bypass pipes right now). Thanks!

Also looking for a good flowing center muffler. Currently running the old version of the fabspeed mini maxflo center mufflers, and per the butt dyno it makes noticeably more power (on my 3.9l car at least) than with the stock center section, but it also has a bit of drone I'd like to eliminate if possible. Thanks all! Pic for attention!

engine architecture is identical. But need a cup bumper and center muffler bracket (same as 996tt). Also 997 side mufflers don’t fit so you need to run bypass pipes or fab up a side muffler set up that will work with stock brackets and the narrow body of the 996.

If you can't find used, let us know if you want to buy a new set of Soul.

Soul makes headers?

Soul makes a center muffler?

Hmmm

Mr. Gaydos @Soul Performance mentioned something might be in production when I last chatted with him . . .
