996 C4S Exhaust

Would like to add performance and sound to my "04 C4S. It's a dedicated track car so switch would be good but not required. I have a quote for $3,300 for Milltek headers plus Milltek cat-back, but not sure this is the right answer. Anyone know MillteK? Other ideas?

I remember first seeing Milltek around 2002 when they were making exhausts for Audi/Vw... sold through "Strasmosphere (??)". Anyway, they looked like very well made exhausts - I never heard one live, but the sound clips on all of the Audis sounded terrific... and I know people were very happy with them. Not sure about their products in the Porsche space though...

having lamborghini owners come up to you after a run and tell you your car sound sick is usually a good sign =)

sharkster, how significant is the difference between the cargraphic loud and medium sound? Is it a partial bypass design, or different cans?

thanks.

if it's a dedicated track car, I would say do headers, 100 or 200 cell cats and muffler bypass(saves the most weight). I'm sure that is going to be LOUD, but it's a track car.

But if you have sound limits at some of your local tracks, then Tubi...

I test drove a car with PSE, it sounded great, but I'd rather loose a few pounds in the rump.



Does anyone know the estimated weight savings a Tubi/Cargraphic has over stock (non-PSE).

I'm not too sure, but I think you save about 25-30lbs with the Tubi.

I too am using the C4S for more of a track car than a street car at this point, but since one of my local tracks has a sound limit of 94 or 92dbs, I muffler bypass isn't a option. The Tubi has a GREAT sound. Cargraphic was my second choice.

I LOVE the AH sport pipes- had them on my 996 and getting a set for my 997. 8.22 lbs each and the perfect blend of bypass pipe and performance muffler. Sick azz sound, no headache inside the car. click link in my sig for vids on my 996.
