PSE installed

Just after I got my car back from the IMS incident. I had them install the PSE and I could not be happier with the purchase! Definitely gets a lot more attention now, good and bad! Here is a clip of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXvPqM6_rxY

Sounds sinister, what an improvement! Good work with the video, some people say the PSE is tame, but that sounds perfect.

NOTHING LIKE IT.

i will have a you tube soon with cats and headers, it sounds crazy.

we need drive by, idle , full throttle, down shifting, low rpms high rpms, when i was buying no one had a video like that. Fabspeed does a great job with their marketing making us hear it all. your car sounds fantastic, add sport cats and you lips will touch your ears ever time you drive.

nice video, open your door !

Yes, the tone will change with headers on...

Even the idle is louder once headers are slapped on...

that sounds great. i currently do not have a porsche and am new to the porsche scene, but what does the PSE kit consist of? any pics of the kit? price? is it like an electric cut-out exhaust kit where you can open or close the exhaust right before the muffler? most importantly, how much do these kits go for? thanks.

To makes thing easier, just look for one that already has it installed or came that way from the factory. One thing for sure, once you have it on one car, it will be hard to get another without it.

my cousin owns maxspeed motorsports and gave me the set to try,

WWW.maxspeed-motorsports.com


the headers and cats sound fantastic. really impressive. i will be keeping them on. at idle it sounds like a really mean 993. at high rpm its really crazy. sounds nothing like the aftermarket exhausts. PSE is unique worth every penny if you like that exotic noise.

Go to Fabspeed.com...They have video's that help explain the difference in some sport exhaust systems including Porsche....It's been years since I bought my PSE but I'm estimating around $1800 to $2,200 installed...

I don't have any other pics sorry, it cost around 2700 with labor. Hopefully someone else here can chime in with specifics about the kit itself.
