Have Fister stage 3 on my 993 and it is awesome. Want something aggressive for the 997 that I am going to buy. Thoughts?
thanks

Tubi all the way! I love mine! The more I drive, the better it sounds. Never gets old. Especially on initial start-up. The rumble is so deep, that it catches people's attention. :-) Then it mellows out after less than a minute. It's very subdued when you want it to be when it's on non-sport mode. But can be an animal once you have sport/sport plus mode on.

I'd agree that is probably the meanest. Also redonculously expensive.

I've heard that Tubi's have a drone that wears on you after a while. How's the Borla? That's the one I'm interested in...

If by drone, you mean that vibration/sound you feel when you are coasting at a steady speed on the highway? Hasn't really bothered me.

I am very happy with the Borla/Sport Cat combination. From watching and listening to the various video clips, I would say that the Borla is more of a mellow bellow as opposed to being raspy nasty. On the highway, just driving civilly in 6th, you would really not hear anything out of the ordinary, but drop it to 4th and cruise and it sounds like a cup car..
I am very anxious to compare it live with Vinny's ride.

I'd look into Afterhours or Cargraphics. There are quite a few videos on youtube with comparisons. I personally went with the Cargraphics Export, and it sounds great with no drone. I'm considering going with muffler bypass pipes, but unfortunately I haven't been able to hear them in person yet.

Ouch !

I think that would be quite unpleasant for anything but track use. That's if the track would even let you run that way. Around here you'd get black flagged and told to fix your exhaust.

Tubi sounds GREAT and probably the best, but not sure if it's meanest (aka LOUDEST). Loudest exhaust I think is Fabspeed, something I personally do not like, but to OP that might be the right one.

Tubi just sounds exotic, I still get chills when I turn on my c2s. Plus driving around people will see you mean business. It is definitely not annoying, just pure enjoyment of driving a mean car.
