Question Looking to improve the sound of my stock Cayenne Turbo Exhaust..Suggestions?

I like the look of the factory exhaust on my Cayenne Turbo..But i want a deeper, louder sound. What's the best way to acheive this without removing the factory exhaust? I recall reading about straight pipes (Removing the secondary Cats). Who makes them and where can i pick these pipes up?

Also, how does it sound?

Thanks!

Sounds EXCELLENT with 2nd cats removed. I would also swap the primaries with high flow units. It's simple plus you keep the OE mufflers. Fabspeed makes the pipes: http://fabspeed.com/cayenne.html

Ditto on the Fabspeed pipes. I think Suncoast has them. The only thing is finding a shop that is willing to remove the secondary cats. Most will tell you that legally they can't...
You can also try to do it yourself since all the pipes are bolted on rather than welded.

The secondary cat's delete does free up some sound, not much but better than stock

Thanks, Guys! I just spoke to Fabryce at GMG.
I'm going to drop off my Cayenne and have the pipes installed. If i want louder i'll have him install a TUBI exhaust.

secondary cat bypass pipes... and/or the cargraphic exhaust. Not sure what year your pepper is but we've got a video up in terms of the sound. You do get a bit more power too

Can you still pass emissions with the secondary cats removed?

EDIT: Looks like it does. I know what I'm getting! I'd like a more aggressive sound but feel an entire exhaust system would be louder than what I'm looking for.

I pulled the secondary cats on my Murcie and it passed emmissions with flying colors..So i'm sure the Cayenne will have no problem passing.
