great pics as always. Hey, I saw one of those today in the AM and was happy to see it with the ugly stainless side panel actually painted. It looks a million times better without the stainless side panel look. It was parked on Broadway I think not a mile from Evans, a Dark silver, darker than seal gray.

I have to say, at first the things was really loud. OK it still is and hearing is gone Actually when cold it is TO loud but when warm it is fine. The drone is an issue. Clients just know when I am in the Porsche. Dennis, which do you have? DC what is yous, quiet? It sounded pretty good. We could probably represent most of the fabspeeds in our area huh?

I have the cats and straight pipes from fabspeed. And it is similarly extremely loud when cold, but when it warms up it settles down a bit. I do not mind the drone, I just don't care for it at the rpm is happens at. I am going to get the drone problem worked out without having to go to mufflers. Thing is, I have heard that all the fabspeeds have a drone. But somepeople just don't feel or hear it. My wife for example didn't notice it until I pointed it out to her and she doesn't feel it is that bad. Everyone is effected differently.

Tim, i have the fabspeed quiet with high flow cats and aftermarket headers. My drone is right at 3100-3200 rpms, anywhere below that or above, its just perfect for me...meaning i can still use my cell phone.

even 3100-3200 rpm is not acceptable to me. I'd like the drone to be at 4000 or above..

I didn't like the drone on the FS loud. I have a home fabed exhaust now which sounds great and has less drone than FS...best thing it only weights 27 pounds.

Ugh -- I was so close to making this. I was getting my car tuned and finished up 30 minutes too late and was literally like 10 minutes away from the park n ride.

Blue 911 Turbo RUF

So is the owner of a blue Turbo Ruf in Latern Hill on here? Don't know how I missed this car as you live right around the corner.
