Muffler Bypass in Los Angeles
Is anyone running muffler bypass pipes in the LA area? I have a 997.1 c2s and am considering getting bypass pipes but would like to hear someone with that setup first.

Having done this on same car, if you like aggressive do it! I had a hard time finding any video except for this one.
I love mine! I also found it revs a bit faster. |
How is the sound compared to when you just take the mufflers off? I drove around like that once and didn't like it.

I love mine! I also found it revs a bit faster. I definitely want an aggresive exhaust note! I've listened to a lot of videos and think it sounds perfect. That being said, I've read a handful of threads where pcar owners say it's simply too loud. I wanted to hear it in real life to find out what the true sound is like. |
I have put about 1800 km since I've done it and truly enjoy it. Makes it even more raw. I got a lot of compliments at the pca track day. The way I thought of it, is worse case I would put mufflers back on if I got annoyed with it being too loud. I have found myself not turning on my stereo as much as I enjoy the sound of the motor.

No other mods related to motor or exhaust.

X... assuming the sound is the same, what didn't you like about it? |

I have it. It's not for everybody... hell, you have people complaining PSE is too loud! LOL!
I have 200 cell Xpipes cats and the muffler bypass. Some intake, GT3 TB and plenum. The car drives faster, revs smoother. There is a tiny loss of torque from 1500 to 2000 RPMs but after that 2000 RPMs, you are going to be loving staying between 3000-4000 all the time. I went to key west with my girlfriend and she didn't complaint. I have people stop me to ask me about the exhaust and it turns heads. it sounds like a cup car. I had the Fister Exhaust and replaced with these. Love every second. |
I have the Sharkwerks x-pipe muffler delete with stock side mufflers and stock cats on my 997.2 Carrera S. It sounds more aggressive than stock , no droning- just an awesome tone. In addition, I have a Fabspeed carbon fiber dual air intake and it sounds even better. I end up shifting in higher rpms just to hear it. It's intoxicating. PM me and I could yet you hear it in person. I'm usually in L.A. Mon-Fri.

I'm not sure the Gundo Hack will be loud enough but I'm worried about the bypass pipes being too loud. I suppose with the bypass pipes, I could always go back to the stock? |
