I recommend the Sharkwerks center muffler delete. I just love it!

It is not obnoxiously loud at any point. I enjoy it for the usability. Highly recommended!

Thanks aussie! Someone mentioned how cool this picture looked,... and I take more notice of it now. Just love the car,... whenever things aren't going well in life, a quick drive will always put a smile on my face! Thank you everyone on the boards that have helped me with the decision of buying a 997.2 GT3. It was certainly the right decision for me.

I had the Europipe Race exhaust for about a month...EXTREMELY LOUD! Sharkys is very similar. I loved it, but if you plan on driving in the city its just funny...it is so loud, I didnt mind it actually, and loved the sound, but it made me paranoid, I felt obnoxious, like I was bothering people, I bet the car behind me was just like WTF!?!?! I was always avoiding cops, I remember there was a mom with her baby in a stroller on the corner and I felt bad to gas it to take off, like i was going to hurt the baby's ears. Lots of in cabin noise as well, taking of its loud, but around 3,200-3500 it had its quietest spot, but low rpm was alot of resonance and I hardly floored the car in the city cause, not exaggerating you could hear the car for blocks.


Good part starts around 1:40....and check out how far away I am at the end, u hear me floor it away..then let off, its quiet then a downshift and I am far. EP - race

The EP race isnt straight pipes either. Stock headers and cats...just full muffler delete. The sharkys race has 2 tiny mufflers that are more like resonators so prob just a tiny bit quieter.
