Hehe... ask Sushi/Sil or those guys... I had it for 2 years myself! It's certainly loud as heck but when you get on it.. it sounds playful to say the least

Anyways if you think yours is loud now... I'll fire mine up with the cannons

Did you get it installed? How is it? Much louder than stock? Any drone?

I have the Fabspeed loud but it's not loud enough for me. Gotta get a by-pass.

Does the Fabspeed sport (loud) flow better than the Moderate or are they the same?

Is one heavier than the other?

I just got my Fabspeed Medium/Moderate Sport exhaust installed. Yes, its a little loud, but I like it. There is clearly some resonance in the lower rpm range, especially when tooling around in 2nd gear. It doesn't give me a headache. To me, its the regular "porsche" sound, but amplified bigtime!

I wanted my car to sound angry...it does...wouldn't change it!

Its my understanding that the Medium/Moderate and the Loud produce the same power.

I have the same setup as Markski. Very loud and the best sounding TT around. For the money, its the least weight, most hp, and lowest cost, what could be better!!
Car sounds like a GT3 Cup car at the track. At idle not loud enough to get a ticket. If you drive slow enough, can get out of the neighborhood in the am without any compliants.
turbos seem to spool much faster and no CELs.
Other than it being loud there are no down sides (and I dont consider that one either)
Was just at Road Atlanta DE and corner workers voted my car "Best Sounding" FWIW.
And as my kids say,"if its too loud you're too old!"

The moderate and SS do end up making about the same power...FWIW I have a used Moderate for sale in the shop if anyone is needing one.
