Default B&B Or Maxspeed?

Alright guys and gals, I am interested in purchasing a complete exhaust system for my '95 993 and was told by a Porsche mechanic that B & B are the best. I have also noticed that Maxspeed are about 1k less for the headers and mufflers. Any pros or cons? Thanks!

Consider GHL, you will not be disapointed.

Your machanic is correct. I have the B&B and the performance and sound is great.

I assume you're talking about Fabspeed Maxfloes(sp?)? I always though the B&B and GHL's were not highly regarded on this board.

IIRC, RSR's, Maxfloes and Mille Miglias get the nod here, in terms of true mufflers and not straight pipes.

Not sure about the fully exhaust system but the B&B mufflers have quite a bit of resonance.

I heard the B&Bs suck but thats from the 03 04 05 time frame. Does Robin still make his RSRs for the 993 those where the bomb back when I was in the 993 world.

Then there is the answer. Those were to die for and there was a LONG waiting list.

My car came w/ the B&B setup and I couldn't be happier. I get complements all the time and I don't have any resonance.

RSR's - great sound with no annoying resonance.

Default '95 993 Headers & Mufflers

I checked out the GHL Motorsport website and found they do not offer headers for a '95 993. Also, unfortunately no photo of their mufflers....
