Yes,, but did your guy say he can build and get those same results? IF it was that easy, I wonder why no one else came up with it sooner?

i think you misunderstood. unobtanium welding is who built the op's exhaust. thats who i contacted. they would simply be replicating what they have already built

I am thinking more about your exhaust,possibly getting one for me. Question,, do know what the purpose of that kinda like expansion chamber on the original making is for, before the X- merge?
I would think that would induce drone?

I believe it is a tuning pipe that creates an inverse frequency in the same range as "drone" that we commonly experience. Like active noise canceling electronics, but at a static point/frequency range, thereby canceling drone in that annoying rev range the 996tt experiences.

For other makes, APR has their RSC exhaust. Google it and you can read up on the concept - I believe unobtainium is using the same idea here, albeit creatively packaged.

Yes, same concept by the looks of it.

Thanks! I still plan on putting together a new video. I just have to catch the wife in the right mood where she'll agree to get dropped off on the side on a random stretch of road… haha.
