Bypass sound great, are pretty inexpensive, but from a weight point of view, are not as effective as a cup set up.
The track exhaust is really nice, but the drone is unbearable for street use in my opinion.

It depends a bit what you want..

Sharky final muffler is about $1500 as the others and sounds the best IMHO and easy to put on. Never heard a better not coming from a GT3, but that is preference.

Side muffler delete (CUP pipes instead, about $1000.00 installed and any pipe bender could copy them) with OEM final exhaust, one hole closed or CUP final exhaust is lighter and passes more sound restrictions but anoying drone under 2500RPM but it is quieter, no cool sound, less fun.

Cheapest is really cheapest. If you spend money make it a good brand. I've cracked all of it, OEM Ti final exhaust, side muffler, the sharky final mufler that replaced the cracked OEM Ti, so I would worry about buying expensive lightweight Ti systems. I now put Snowboarder54's final steel exhaust on that was gathering dust in the attic. This after about 60 track days, 16K miles, maybe half of them track miles and my daily driver.

Ya I am just trying to keep in mind that I will drive this on lots of highway road trips, so I dont want it to be annoying. It will see some track time, but it will be used! I have a Sharkwerks on my 997.1 RS and like it, was wondering about the RSS, I saw the video of the one online and its gorgeous sounding!

very cool car you bought bud, really nice looking. Congrats. In my own opinion if you have the money for the 4.0 I would get a AKRO or M&M/FVD or maybe CUPSide pieces or even the new BBI side bypass sounds like a nice setup. Have fun

Paint all the silver bits black and change the corner lights to clear then you're done.

Sport Cup is best option IMHO. You don't really gain much by swapping out center section on an RS other than sound. Swapping headers gets into the whole issue of CELs and emissions, and can get very expensive. The Sport Cup system will drop 46lb off the right end of a 911, costs half what a full Akra system costs, avoids the whole CEL issue, and sounds amazing.

I trust you have access to plenty of dynos so whichever way you go it would be great if you could post before and after dyno runs. Enjoy the car.


Asked and answered. I will post videos once it's installed.

why change the corner lights on an orange car ???

No HTwo O

IMO, they clash. Different shades of "orange". Clears will look better.

mooty

it's faster

we just like to change stuff.
it's a disease. i will pass it on to you in no time.

Well you've got to start somewhere. Might as well start small, and go from there. You know, that slope thing.
