No, the one I am talking about is not on any of the sites at the moment, including my own.

The super sport was the original. HF cats, two baffles (cherry bombs) and loud as hell, the sport was HFcats and a single can. Lower noise level still moderate drone. We came to call it a "moderate" instead of loud.

Now the third generation of mufflers are out and these are different cats all together and a two can design that is in three around levels, quiet, med and loud. The sport and super sport will be phased out in time.

I have had fabspeed for about a year. It took awhile for me to get used to the volume. Very aggressive...I wouldn't take it off.

Just curious if anyone knows what the "GT2" emblem on my fabspeed exhaust implies. Is it a "loud sport" or "medium sport" ?? I was told by the seller it was a new medium sport exhaust, but its pretty frickin' loud!

DEMON- The fabspeed supersport I have is the older one, the only way to really sum it up is that you wont want a louder exhaust . I personally love it to death. Glad to see parts are arriving before the car

Your's would be the generation 2 muffler, single can. It is more than likely the moderate.

Slightly OT, but the old versions with "one can" - did they use a straight through muffler design?

Who makes exhausts currently for these that use straight through design, instead of the stumpy cans where the exhaust has to wind around to get out? THIS is what I'm looking for.

So, if anyone has one of the super loud and droney straight through designs they want to sell, I'm your huckleberry...

Thanks for all the info! I am waiting for the ol' tax return and working on getting the full coils and exhaust...



DCOTY - I like loud but a nice loud...I used to have a Gruppe M on my M and that thing was nasty loud but it reverbed in the cabin WAY too much...I had to sell it at a loss...I picked up an Eisenmann after that and loved it.

M

Demon- Its a nice loud, not obnoxious (I was worried about that) and its a very sharp exhaust note. Reverb isnt that bad...on the highway its actually pretty tame when cruising, and seeing where you are comming from with your M, I think you will be very pleased.
