it is the best exhaust on market all hand made.
just ask hamann7 aka tyson he like it and won the shoot out.
"Best exhaust on the market"??? Thats a bold claim. With all due respect, I too have a lightweight hand made custom exhaust and I suspect few, if any, 996TT exhausts perform better (excluding straight pipes):

Lee,
I've had the AWE for over a year now and really like it. Not very loud until you get on it, no drone, very nice quality.

Willcoxmd,

Like you, I couldn't find the exhaust that was just right, but of course everyone has a different opinion of what is "just right."
Listen to every exhaust you can to see what sound you like best.
If you want performance, you need 100 cell cats (to stay legal) and generally the larger the tubing the better the flow and less back pressure you will have. Also, two separate exhausts like the picture Craig is showing in this thread is best for performance. But you generally get more resonance with a set up like his, if you care about that.

I know you listened to the sound clip I posted under "Sportec Exhaust Video" on page two of this forum. I think this exhaust provides the best compromise of performance, exhaust note and resonance of any exhaust out there. I got to drive the car in stop and go traffic as well as freeway speeds this past weekend and I can say that there is no resonance at all.
I love the higher pitched F1 type sound when you get on it and the lack of drone in the 2000-3500 rpm range. If you can find a good price on the Sportec exhaust, I think you will love it.

Then again, this is my opinion and it is your opinion that counts here.

Anything you can say about that set up? CEL's etc? I am sure it sounds beautiful, but are you getting more hp than with the Fabspeeds?

ARI, where did you get the Remus, I can't seem to find an outlet for them? and their web page does not list a TT pipe. I have a modified stock exhaust that drones badly at low rpm and makes a whooshing sound when hammering it. I am not happy.
