I got the full fabspeed setup on my 997s and I have to say I love it. I havent heard a tubi in person but I cant see paying double the price of a full fabspeed setup for only mufflers and tips. I think thats insane!!

Any sound clips? I've been having sleep problems lately and maybe that sweet sweet sound will help put me to sleep

I have the full system with the hi flow cats. I only have a video of a fly by with the exhaust on nothing great. The seat of pants feeling in the car is totally different now. seems much smoother and the car takes off much quicker. It could be my imagination though

I had Tubi mufflers on my base 997 and I liked them. The car felt a little stronger (aural perception ?), sounded geat and actually ran about 6-8- degrees cooler. No resonance to speak of. I haven't heard the Fabspeeds on a car, but I ordered a set for my GT3. Build quality on the Tubis is excellent, and my installation tech said the install was very easy.
Pricey perhaps, but worth it.

I have a car with tubi at the shop now- if you are in the area come by and hear it..
This particular car has tubi mufflers- tubi manifolds and cargraphic 200 cell sport cats-

SOUNDS AWESOME!

My other Favorites are Cargraphic and AWE Tuning-

I am seriously considering AWE's system which delivers proven +39HP on a 997S: headers, mufflers, cat and ECU. Sure you have to spend about 5k to get there, but it seems to be the best setup out there for the 997.
