Default Just took off my Fabspeed CatBypass(V6)

Very annoying rattle-like sound at high revs with the bypass pipe ...had it on for 2 months...re-installed oem cat today and noticed absolutely no loss of power or acceleration in taking off the Fab pipe.

Now my cayenne again sounds like a well-tuned machine instead of a noisy
rattle-ly ricer. If there was any power gain with the pipe, it wasn't noticeable...a complete waste of time and money IMHO.

I like the sound without the extra set of catalytic converters in place. I am SURE I get at least an extra 5 MPG now them gone! :-)
