Default Exhaust again
I'm looking at this system from Eurocup consisting of 2 individual high flow rear boxes with 200 cell cats as my current custom setup is producing way too much drone/resonance which I can't stand.

How are 200 cell cats, as I do not want any CEL issues? Anyone heard of Eurocup?

Price is good at €uro 1,178.59

I think you will hate the drone even more from that system pictured. Any exhaust that includes 2 seperate cannisters without a pipe in between seems to drone the most. Just my experience YMMV.

The 993's (NA & turbo) and NA 996's have separate canisters and do not suffer from drone...................

Cheers,
I find it difficult to accept Europipe's (or any other Porsche tuner with similar pricing) price tag of some EUR 4000 for 2 cats, 2 tailpipes and a muffler that is manufactured in some eastern european country. Nobody is ever going to be able to convince me that R&D and production cost justifies such a hefty price.

I guess that if one keeps up adding the cost of your new exhaust purchases >> one day you'll exceed the cost of the Europipe

I still feel that the EP Stage 2 exhaust is one of the BEST sounding exhaust for our cars>> you get the added bonus that it doesn't drone...

The existing system was custom made by/for the previous owner so I don't know but assume it doesn't.

Looks just like a fabspeed version 2 I had a while back. That system pictured is overpriced. The tubi dual can sytem will not drone at all.
