Stock exhaust? what to do with it?

Planning on upgrading my exhaust to the Gen 3 fabspeed sometime this month (July).
What do most of you do with the stock exhaust?

In addition, is the ECU flash the same program with or without the Exhaust upgrade?

You always have the trash bin

Flash the ECU after the installation for the extra juice.

Keep the stock tips at least, you'll need them back on when trading in the turbo. Dealers want the porsche stock for better resale.

Keep it. One day you will sell that car and the buyer might just want the stock exhaust put back on.

Ditto, just hold onto it, you never know. I'd highly recommend the quiet version of the fabspeed gen 3, that's what I have it's actually more of a moderate sound than quiet.
