Well after several months of designing, testing, re-designing, and re-testing....we finally settled on what we think is the perfect exhaust solution for the Panamera Turbo.
Like all Tubi Style exhausts, the PTT system is 100% stainless steel and hand-made in Italy. It's available in two configurations, valved or non-valved, and uses dual rolled-edge polished stainless tips for a more aggressive look. Check out our YouTube video below and feel free to ask any questions.
Is the valved version compatible to cars already prewired with PSE?
Yes, the valved version functions in the exact way as the factory exhaust, but I should elaborate on this a little bit.
From the factory ALL Panamera Turbo exhausts have valves. The only difference between PSE and non-PSE is that PSE-equipped cars have the button to override the valves. So you could use the valved Tubi on a PSE or non-PSE car.

there really isnt a real distinct sound that compares to the Aston sound or the Maserati sound is there?
Not quite. Unfortunately the nature of the PTT engine is a deeper sound overall. It would be next to impossible to duplicate that higher tone of a Maserati or Aston (which I think sound AWESOME too! )

cool, but yet the Tubi sounds good as well....., I had a rental Ferrari with a Tubi exhaust, OMG, love at first sight plus that exhaust note....yikes = heavenly sounds....lol
Innotech has produced an exhaust for the 4s that has some amazing sound, but not sure if they have one for the turbo. The exhaust is prob a little closer to the higher tone.
If anyone's interested, I have a used Tubi Style exhaust for sale for $1,500 shipped anywhere in continental US. This normally retails for $4,650. It will fit any PTT & PTTS from 2010-2013.
Here's the catch: I've used the system for 2 years but removed it because one of the valve flaps axel broke (see photos). This means one of the valves stays open all the time and the valve rattles as is. Someone with good welding experience should be able to repair this, or the two valve flaps could be removed so the exhaust remains always open and in the loud position.
