pszikla is infamous around these parts
I guess to each his own!
I think it makes the car sound like a typical ricer Honda etc...
Not to mention that resonant drone at lower rpm
Sorry, doesn't do it for me, I'll keep my headers/Tubi's setup

It sounds pretty good, but the inside noise is draining, lol.

Ya...I think the sound is a "love it" or "hate it". I personally LOVE it! We have the fabspeed muffler bypass installed on our 996 and it's probably my favorite mod on the car.

Granted, it's hard to hold a nice conversation unless your going at a nice even 60 miles per hour and don't hit the throttle. But other than that...going through tunnels! woohoo! I love it!
