Hi Prschekid, the Maxflo is designed for a nice sporty sound but for everyday driving, so its not loud and aggressive. Our Supercup is designed for track use due its loud and aggressive sound, and you will experience drone at low RPM since the the exhaust is designed to be driven over 3200 RPM. So its going to depend on how you drive your car, so I would think about that or go with our Maxflo Mufflers which sound nice but are not aggressive. Let me know if you have any questions and PM me for special member pricing.
thanks,

i had their muffler bypass pipes and it just sounded terrible (but i sure noticed a performance gain!)

whatever you buy, just make sure it has some sort of muffler / resonator to it, otherwise it really sounds raspy and broken.. like an exhaust leak or rusted out muffler.

Go with PSE... With x pipe cats. But you want to install the electronics for the quiet mode. PSE sounds nothing like fister d. I've heard them side by side and the PSE is has that bark that the gt3 cup car has...

FVD Or Tubi. If you want more Bass then Tubi, if you want it deeper then FVD. My personal favourite has always been FVD. Its by far the most Porsche like sounding Exhaust system Plus they have various setup that you can choose from. Kreissieg is a joke. You can have them on some italian cars, but for god sake not a porsche. Would you change the engine on a porsche from Flat six to some italian motor. Would you? Why so obsessed with F1 sound. Its not a F1 car neither goes like a F1 car. its a Street legal sports car.

The fisters are nice, I have em and WAS satisfied...until my body shop decided to replace one of the mufflers to a stock muffler after I told them I had the fister mod. The note sounds nice when you have 2 mufflers..in my case it sounds odd with one =D

I have what I believe to be Eismann mufflers on my 2004 C2, and love the sound. I bought the car in January, and haven't pulled the mufflers to confirm.

They make the car sound more like the air cooled models than anything else. At low RPM, they kind of chuff when accelerating from a stop, and at WOT/high RPM, they have a very aggressive snarl. Nice burble on shifts and engine braking too. They're nice and quiet at cruise too, no drone at all.

Too bad they aren't available any more...

Association?

I can't help but believe your somehow associated with Kline since all your posts have pictures of the mufflers openly displaying the name.

FWIW, Eisenmann makes OE and aftermarket mufflers for a lot of OEM like Porsche and BMW. My factory Porsche PSE exhaust clearly has a Eisenmann name plate welded on it.
