Help - Buying Decisions - Mufflers

Hi There.. I'm in the market for buying a set of mufflers for my2000 carrera 4. I wanted to get some thoughts of my fellow carrera owners as to what exhaust they think the best bang for the buck and best performance of all. I have 3 choices:

PSE
Cargraphic
Remus Romulus

I can get the PSE used from $900.00. The cargraphic is $800 new and the Romulus $800 new

I don't know how the cargraphic and remus sounds. I have heard the PSE already and it sounds great. I need your help.... Please shed some light.

If you want performance, any added HP, get the Cargraphics. If you just want loud, no HP go with the PSE. The PSE is basically a stock muffler with a 5/8" bypass pipe btwn inlet and outlet with a vacuum activated switch that you don't need. JMO

I am also looking to change out the stock exhaust on my 04 996 but I am strongly considering fabspeed. Any thoughts on this choice?

Fabspeeds are awsome. I have GHL's myself. checkout fabspeed.com .
Doesn't the 40th anniv already have PSE? If it does, I would just keep that.

Best Exhaust? My opinion is NONE. I bought the Fabspeed exhaust along with a set of bypass pipes and never installed the exhaust.

Bypass pipes are the only way to go. Your neighbors may not agree however
