997.2 Exhaust?

I'm looking to purchase an exhaust that sounds aggressive and will help the overall performance of the car.

Which company makes the best exhaust for Porsche?

Any suggestions?

Yes. Do a search. You will find numerous threads here on the forum on this very subject...and numerous opinions. Plus there are plenty of YouTube videos posted that provide a sampling of the upgraded exhaust note. Me? I went the El Cheapo route and did the Gundo Hack (again, do a search).

Think you missed the part about him wanting to add performance

Good advice to search. Lots of fresh threads to choose from!

Oh they can add power and reduce weight, neither of which the gundo hack can claim--which was my point. They can also change the character of the power delivery, which is performance. There's a noticeable difference in the way my motor builds power, before and after. Throttle response improved.

I agree it's nothing earth shattering, if that's what you tried to say.

I thought that replacing the center exhaust (on a 997.2) with bypass pipes give more power?
