I installed the Fabspeed mufflers which sound amazing... As far as horsepower gain translate to less weight, and the sound of the louder mufflers help convince me i've got more power...

I beleive the best feature of this mod is getting a better sounding car...and less back end weight..

good luck

It sounds like a 12 cylinder Ferrari..
I'd like to learn more about this setup as well. I'm not unhappy with the sound of my stock exhaust with bypass, but a lighter weight and even better sound (not necessarily louder) would be interesting.

I did the Fister cans on my 993 - they were awesome + workmanship was first-rate and the best customer service

If your ok with the bypass sound, but would like a better sound with a lightweight exhaust, you should check out the fabspeed supercups.. im local if you ever want to hear them.

+1,000 for the Fister sport mufflers. This is the best mod I've made to my 996. Lots of burble and snap, no drone, great sound at WOT.
