How do you like the Fabspeed X Pipe - i'm having a hard time deciding between AWE, Sharkwerks, and Fabspeed. Waiting for a meet so I can hear them. I have the PSE as well and would like a lil more sound.

They will all give you a LOT more sound. Only other one I've heard is the Sharkwerks into Gundo muffs. Had a deeper, throaty sound. Mine with the Fabspeed and X pipe is as good as ANY street Porsche I've heard, a little higher pitched and more exotic or "ferrari" sounding. The sound of the car to me is a HUGE part of the experience. You won't be disappointed!

I love the duck tail!

Very happy to hear you are happy with your x-pipe as well.

Well, I was one that saw a lot ducktail pics for a few years and thought.. Ya it looks cool I guess, depending on the angle, color, etc. This is again one of those things you can't get the full effect of in pictures. Once I saw it on my car I LOVED it instantly. Really flows well and has an almost oem feel. I think Getty nailed the sport classic styling.

Wheeler,

The duck tail looks good on your car!

Now STOP doing these types of mods, you are making my car look bad!

For those that don't know, Wheeler and I both have a Meteor Gray Metallic 997.2 with Forgestar CF 10 wheels in Gunmetal.

Ah, but gota, you have the elusive front lip!! After all the pining I've done for an affordable 997.2 lip for my car I'm not sure I could get on and off my lift with it! After lowering the stock lip barely clears.

So....ya, I had to raise the bar on ya! Honestly I wasn't sure if I was totally in love with the ducktail in pictures, after seeing it on the car I love it. Still and OEM look, with a little "hoon" thrown in!

Love the GD Ducktail! Which springs or coil overs are you using? It looks perfect.

Sorry man, I guess I missed your reply here. I have the H&R sport springs only on PASM shocks. The wheels have custom offsets, no spacers, and have a wider set than the stock.
