LoL Thanks . Any suggestions


I'm thinking of just doing an exhaust upgrade for right now. Preferably something that has dual modes I can switch between ie. quite/loud. So I can keep low profile when I want to, and go all out when the moment calls. Is there such a system for porsche out there ?

Welcome to the club!

How much driving time do you actually get in Boston?

How much you have to spend is all relative. 9ff exhaust has exactly what your looking for, and the sickest sounding IMO out of any exhaust combo for the Turbo's!!!

Go to the video "Out For Lunch"

None inside the city, but there are very long stretches of highway all across the state and with a little radar detector handy you can have some modest fun


No racing ofcourse

welcome aboard Tarek. Fellow BU Alumni here.

iLL - thanks for the kind words. Yeah, out for lunch was good stuff. Tarek - shoot me an email if you need more info on the 9ff Variotune.

man - if only I could have been bombing down comm ave back in 89 in a TT. After 1:00am, the "T" stops so I was always trying to figure out how to get the honey's back to south campus in the dead of winter before they sobered up!!

hehe

Martin is there any exhaust system out there that has the electronic valve opener function but has "figure eight" or stock style tailpipes instead?

Not feeling the 9ff tailpipes...

Hmm, maybe they can custom fab you a single pipe to re-use stock tips?! Otherwise Kreisseig, also expensive but doesnt sound anywhere near as good as the 9ff, usually they sound the best but on the turbo it sounds like any other straight pipe obnoxious turbo!

Sounds expensive !


Does the Kreisseg you're talking about have the electronic valve opener function (dual modes) ?

I'm gonna check it out on their website....
