Now had time to evaluate the latest changes on my 968cab. the promax chip first - excellent. did exactly what the website blurb said it would. really really good.
Now the sports exhaust (cat back system). from Janspeed, via Essential Styling Systems and also via promax (dont ask). at first I really didnt like it - very loud and intrusive. but then I'd been driving a G reg VW polo for 2 weeks as loan car. But either the exhaust has settled down or I have, because its perfect. And I mean, perfect! lovely low resting grumble, nice increasing growl as you go up through the revs and a great bark if the car is used in anger. My wife said it best - "now it sounds like a sports car". On reflection, the standard exhaust note was always very polite and refined. Now its got just enough of a "dont mess with me" message without being intrusive. Fantastic.
Oh, and £399 versus £1149+VAT for standard porsche approved replacement. Doh!
