From Darin's post, these squarish tips are motorsound:

Hey, I see you got your car back!!! How exciting. Now we don't have to track you down from various websites like PCA etc!

Looks great and congrats. Try and not sell it again for awhile.

Aren't the motorsound tips the same as the wide ovals?

Thanks Andy...it won't be for sale for a very long time

Chris, PM sent.

I can't take a good pic because the car isn't here. Here is the best pic I have, but I can't tell if it is the same as the ones posted. My car has a few factory-type mods that must have been done within the first 3 years of it's existence as I have talked to all of the other owners and they didn't do them - motorsound air box, 18 inch wheels, bird armrest, m030 suspension.

That's what I thought, mainly because that's how my car is configured.

Yeah I was quite sure that the wide oval were part of the motorsound package. Hence the ones pictured above are just the regular tips (maybe just polished).

My understanding as well! Is this not the case?

Mine has the motor sound package with wide ovals. I don't see how the square style can enhance the sound.

The big ovals were available separately as option X54. I don't think they were part of the motorsound package.

I could be wrong but I think motor sound tips are the squarish ones, unless the car came with the wide oval option. My C4S has the MS package with wide oval option.

More info here: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...oval-tips.html

I think the Motorsound tips are the rectangular polished ones. Big ovals were a different (and more expensive) option. I suspect that many motor sound mufflers were paired with either motor sound tips or big oval tips. There are probably many regular mufflers that were mounted with different tips as well. Sort of mix and match...

My car has the motor sound mufflers and rectangular tips, but did not have the motor sound air box.

Mine has wide ovals and motorsound (98 4S)...is there option # for the wide ovals, I can check the sticker and see if they were optional or no. Of course they could have been added by PO...
