muffler bypass or Gundo hack?

Hello everyone so i have a muffler bypass currently on my car but its way to loud. I mean wayyyyy to loud. Been reading up on the Gundo hack and was wondering if i do this with my mufflers will it be as loud as my current bypass or will i lose some sound. I am willing to lose a little cause its way to loud after a week of having this bypass. Will the sound be better? Btw i have high flow fabspeed xpipe cats, and fabspeed headers.

Gundo hack makes it noticeably louder when on the gas, it is no way to loud by itself.


I intend to add a center muffler replacement/ bypass soon, it sounds like you must have bypassed your side mufflers, that is way to loud even by itself from what I have read

yes i bypassed my side mufflers as mine is a 2007 997s. I plan to do the gundo hack on my fabspeed mufflers. What do you guys think? or will it still sound the same as my current bypass?

Gundo hack pipe diameter

I did a Gundo Hack on my C4 and I had a choice between 1.5 inch and 2 inch pipe. I was told the two inch was pretty loud. I went with 1.5 and I'm very happy. Nice note on acceleration, but I don't notice any difference at cruising speed.
