Hi guys after a aftermarket exhaust for my 02 996T

[bighead]

as the title says....any advice is most welcome []

any reccomendations for an aftermarket back box or system for my "02" 996T,
not so much for bhp more for the exhaust sound really ......i have a budget of £2k
also any idea of the install labour cost ?

thanks

Pinched from another forum:

"From my own bitter experience modified exhausts on the turbo is very difficult to get 'right' - the challenges of achieving more power and a better exhaust note have cost me an absolute fortune!

They are a whole different ball game to other 911's

A better exhaust note is a very subjective one I appreciate and after having a Milltek modified by them 3 times (inc. swapping from 100 to 200 cell cats), I then tried a Techart one and then I went back to standard for year until I found the europipe stage 1 which is perfect IMHO"

I've heard several good reports on this Europipe exhaust and it falls nicely on your budget.

I just googled it to get an idea of price. I'm not looking right now but you could probably go to your nearest porsche specialist and ask them to buy one in for you.

It's also possible to mod the standard exhaust for around half an hour's labour and a bit of patience. Clearly, the cats remain untouched (which means power is pretty much unchanged) but the sound improves no end. It is pretty much the Carnewal exhaust but with the original catalysts.

Do tell. I've just heard the fvd exhaust and I'm suddenly quite interested

H i guys ...thank again for the quick info/advice , I rang Ninemiester in warrington today, there reccommended the Cargraphic system as the best ones to go for and fittings is from 2-4 hrs labour.

i think that system will not be cheap though ..............

Some info HERE.

I did it as an experiment on the basis that if it didn't work, I'd go to Carnewal. It worked.
