Help me ID my Fabspeed exhaust please

This Fabspeed exhaust came on my TT which I bought last September. I prefer a quiet car, so installed a stock one back on there. I want to sell this one, but don't know what generation or model it is. Can anyone help me ID the exhaust? Also, what is a reasonable price for it? I believe it has something like 8k miles on it and has no damage whatsoever. Tips will be included.

The exhaust has not been cleaned up whatsoever. I'm sure it would look nicer after some elbow grease

Nice threadjack attempt

That looks different from my exhaust. Notice how the outlets from the muffler are different. Mine has one exit from the top and the other from the bottom. While yours has both exit from the bottom.

Just teasing.

After all, if you hadn't done that, I would not have known that it isn't Gen 1 Loud

. I think they both are GEN 1 and yours is possibly older purely because of the way it has been built. I think that both "tubes" that are visible in your design are just encased in one bigger container hence the look is different. Fact that one pipe is on top and on the bottom could be irrelevant, the pipe goes from left (from turbo out) to right exhaust whereas the other one goes from right to left.. Mine is also marked GT2 Turbo, just like yours. Both seem to have the F1 clamps, I bet your cats are marked with CAT 200, that is what Fabspeed seem to have used for GEN 1. Cheers

Price for a Fabspeed

And.. I would ask $ 1850 dollars for the complete set up if I were you!! They have a great - albeit LOUD sound- deep and guttural rumble unfortunately, COPS in my part of the world seem to have a distaste of it and SMOG tests will certainly fail the car in California hence my move back to stock.

Laughing guitar, yours is a gen 1 loud. You can tell this because of the 2 smaller canisters. Hroussard yours is a gen2. The gen1's have two smaller canisters.

Cool

Hmm. that's what I heard from Fabspeed . Will be doing some more checking I guess. Duff0000 - thanks for your input. BTW,- although these is some drone on these Fabspeeds, these suckers have a great deep growling sound.. not for the faint of heart. To Weeping-guitar :-) - see attached picture specially for you. I have not been aggressively pushing to sell mine because I would not be able to replace it for less than say about 4K + a day of installation!! But I do aggressively sell a 996 exhaust (3.4 engine) complete with tips that I have in my garage. LOL

So this one would be a Gen 11? I thought it was a Gen 1
I was getting ready to market this one and want to get it right
