I think he's referring to the fact you can retain the stock cats (and avoid potential CELs) by using a system that just swaps the central muffler. Again, unlike the situation in the .1 where you have a 1 pc system, hence the entire system has to be changed.
GLWS either way you go.

Agree totally. The cats are the main bottleneck. Why just change out the can for the sake of a bit more noise...silly unless using an akra can that at least does something for the exercise. So on that score you may as well leave it stock unless you get rid of the lot....or get an akra can and pay the high price. I am aware Akra says there is a gain of some sort if changing out the stock can for one of their own but hey this is akra we are talking about not Cargraphic FVD or FS whatever. Akra is one company like EP that actually does their R and D homework properly.... but even so they will state the real gain comes when the whole system is changed. That is the best way.

Leo,
That offer is ridiculous!! I am with you! But you are not the first person to get a low ball offer from a dealer, I am afraid that we have all been through this...Just take your time a little bit and let's see if we can help you move the Silver TT and then you will land on a Black TT. In the mean time, I think the Surgeon's advice is good to sell the "bits" of your TT and keep working on a deal...
It will happen, but it may take a little more time, work, and maybe a chess move.
I think "Wisky" here is a dealer, and maybe he can interject some advice?

Leo, stone cold stock be patient you can sell that car in no time.
Put it in fleabay, you CAN sell that car privately for what you're asking, it may take a month but so what?
997.2 cars will be all over the place with lower miles n better options as the 991tt gets closer.
Stock as stock can be, minimize the on line trail if u know what I mean.
Patience is a virtue, you gotta ignore the immediate gratification bug you have. You had 4 exhausts in as many weeks, yes I had more, but over 5 yrs. tranquillo my friend.

Be patient as others have suggested. It was only an offer so don't take it personally - you rejected the offer which is your right - move on to the next one.

I know it's not a 997.2 but you know what it would look like with your parts!
