The m2 exhaust could have fit with some cutting and welding but that defeats the purpose in my eyes. The bigger let down was the fake hollow pipping which was supposed to be a resonator. Its just a gutted new cat. No glass pack. S

After the Help of my old friend Sam Ahdoot AKA SamboTT. I decided to go with a modified Stock exhaust with no pre or post cats. Sam has been awesome through my build process and I def suggest any of y9ou out there to go to him for the Ill Deals. If this build wasnt a budget friendly one, I would def consider Markski's Exhaust. Looks really good as well!

SAMBOTT's Exhaust

I'm using this exhaust and found it to be the best for my application which is a balance between flow and noise. I tried a "race" exhaust and it did product better flow and power, but I couldn't live with the cabin drone....

Don"t let anyone tell you their exhaust doesn't drone as they all seem to to some level.

SAMBOTT is awesome to work with, and I like his exhaust for my TT.

I dunno, but I read an 11 page exhaust thread over at rennlist where the Kline dude is talking like he's the only sound engineer that made a Porsche exhaust. That's sooo 2002!

He's explaining away 2.5" tubing, 100 cell cats are bad, exhaust doesn't need heat shielding - yada yada.

My BS-o-meter was going off big time. Oh and the exhaust quality is ok, nothing like an EP.

The sound is ok I guess, sounds "corked up". At any rate, I'm just concerned based on how these guys come out of nowhere to start slamming the Porsche engineers, c'mon guys - if your tech were that good, just become an OEM supplier to Porsche and more...
