jason. Looks/sounds great. Maybe its just me but looks like the tips are not aligned properly. Left ones seem a little high to the left vs the right ones.

What were the reasons that you chose this exhaust over the Fab and much
advertised AWE??? Very curious because have heard little about the Cargraphic product. Price wise? the Fab product is cheapest. And what about the HP gain and lack of drone etc. Fab claims best there too!!

Appreciate you showing the "guts" of the exhaust exchange. I am not sure
I could trust anyone in my area literally tearing the *** end of my turbo for just a muffler. It would take an exceptionally good tech to get it all back like it was from the factory. Anyway some food for thought. Thanks again

I've done extensive research on which exhaust would suit the car best and only a few names came to mind. cargraphic, Europipe, Tubi and a few others. Fabspeed and AWE wasn't even considered. It's really a matter of preference really. But you do get what you pay for...

Fred, I'm well aware of that...I noticed it when I got it back but I'll try tweaking it. Thanks for the heads up. And John, that's why I had the top guy at my dealership do the install. I only trust the best with my car.

And of course I wear PORSCHE driving gloves when I drive. Doesn't everybody?

Atomic80: Are you suggesting the cargraphic and maybe Tubi are that much better than either the AWE or Fabspeed products?? When you say you have done research on the products....all I am able to find is what is in the car mags and in there cargraphic is never discussed. Interesting, I would have guessed the AWE product would be the best, but maybe not.

These systems cost a lot, so any work one does upfront is worth it, because if one is unhappy, off the system comes, more labor charges, more shipping charges and a lot of big problems if the exhaust has problems. I learned that lesson big time with my M3. And with the tt, the turn around expense and replace time is double for sure.
