Orion03 Posted 11April, 2014 Report Posted 11April, 2014 So my 997c2 is rather quiet and refined.... Too Quiet ..... So, standing on the edge of a precipice of modifications, what do you guys reckon will give my 997 a nicer sound?
_Tony Posted 11April, 2014 Report Posted 11April, 2014 Fisters? http://fdmotorsports.net/category/fister-exhaust-997 I agree the 997's are very quiet.. a 997 was at a set of lights that i was crossing.. i could barely hear the engine as it rolled up
clutch-monkey Posted 11April, 2014 Report Posted 11April, 2014 i hear akrapovic is great build quality and sound. personal experience is fabspeed went quite nice on the 996

cyberpunky Posted 13April, 2014 Report Posted 13April, 2014 Akrapovic do sound the business but not made for my car. I use a fabspeed and love the sound and the finish is first class too. Won't go wrong with either
Hounddub Posted 13April, 2014 Report Posted 13April, 2014 Orion, just looking through their website and Im not sure they still make the 997.1 exhaust any more.
JustJames Posted 13April, 2014 Report Posted 13April, 2014 Yep - my listing from Akrapovic doesn't show anything for 997.1.Just to throw another brand into the mix, there are also exhausts by Dansk (better known for their exhausts for air cooled cars) which are suitable for the 997.
Tit Posted 14April, 2014 Report Posted 14April, 2014 I know of someone who dropped something like $12k on an akra for his 1M and it wasn't even the whole system! I could only imagine what an akra with "Porsche tax" would cost... buy once cry once!

clutch-monkey Posted 14April, 2014 Report Posted 14April, 2014 I know of someone who dropped something like $12k on an akra four his 1M and it wasn't even the whole system! I could only imagine what an akra with "Porsche tax" would cost... ouch... the fabspeed system was 3-4k shipped and i was bitching about that lol. i'd be tempted to do the mod posted above and failing that just replace the mufflers..

I do want to change out to the cup centre exit muffler eventually though.... keeping the fabspeed headers this is
clutch-monkey Posted 14April, 2014 Report Posted 14April, 2014 i actually want a centre exit muffler for the SC but there isn't much i can find that will suit
Mike D'Silva Posted 16April, 2014 Report Posted 16April, 2014 have you checked out Carnewal in Belgium?? I got one for my Cayman S..... the sound, as Larry David from Curb would say, is pretty pretty pretty pretty... pretty good. Well, I like it.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQb7mZRDxWo

Carrera28 Posted 16April, 2014 Report Posted 16April, 2014 Remus or Sharkwerks I know someone who got a Sharkwerks exhaust imported for his 997 GT3 and he had no problems getting it shifted and was happy with the result
clutch-monkey Posted 18April, 2014 Report Posted 18April, 2014 M&K have centre exits i think it is too restrictive for 3.6!
cyberpunky Posted 19April, 2014 Report Posted 19April, 2014 This where I got my fabspeed Click Here Not sure if any cheaper but may be worth seeing what they charge for your model
T-Man Posted 19April, 2014 Report Posted 19April, 2014 Remus or Sharkwerks I know someone who got a Sharkwerks exhaust imported for his 997 GT3 and he had no problems getting it shifted and was happy with the resultMal has a Sharkwerks exhaust in his GT3. Sounds amazing.
Merv Posted 22July, 2014 Report Posted 22July, 2014 Fisters? http://fdmotorsports.net/category/fister-exhaust-997 I agree the 997's are very quiet.. a 997 was at a set of lights that i was crossing.. i could barely hear the engine as it rolled up Has anyone used the Fisters on a 997? They seem very cheap? Are such available in Australia? Not looking for performance gains but only a nicer note ...
Merv Posted 22July, 2014 Report Posted 22July, 2014 I gather that these are a polished version of the so called 'Gundo hack' process, that can easily be done locally by a competent exhaust shop. Any one done this?
JV911 Posted 23July, 2014 Report Posted 23July, 2014 I know of someone who dropped something like $12k on an akra for his 1M and it wasn't even the whole system! I could only imagine what an akra with "Porsche tax" would cost... Lets just say you could rebuild your 964 engine again including bottom end for the same money
Tit Posted 23July, 2014 Report Posted 23July, 2014 A full rebuild for $12k? Bargain! Lets just say you could rebuild your 964 engine again including bottom end for the same money
