If you can, please make the video capturing sound from inside-outside of car, and with valves closed and valves open. Can´t wait

See if you can tell what the horsepower gains are. Do a flyby too if you can from outside the car.

First closed and after little pause open...you can hear more roaring to open valve.
Again they need some wear to burn thru

I think that for 2k, it is great. Basically you get valvetronic system for about $600 bucks, on top of a standard priced system. Not bad, if you ask me.

Flyby now?

that is an absolutely beautiful 996, and the perfect exhaust IMO. Sounds incredible both open and closed.

I have the muffler bypass pipes on my car and I have to say, even with yours open, it sounds so much more refined that mine.

mine makes some pretty dirty sounds with a partial rev.. it basically just sounds like a broken muffler.

yours on the other hand, it sounds refined even with the valves open!

+rep !!

thank you split!
I used to have bypass as well i like the sound however late hours return to house or just days i wish is not that loud make my decision to remove them.But you can do the PSE hack on your oem mufflers and that will give you something between that.
