I'm back in this a couple days late, but bypass pipes are worth the money spent. I really think Porsche put these on to comply with EU noise restrictions...why else would anyone put secondary cats on a sports car?

The mid range tones are wonderful going to an all out scream as rpm rise. The nice part is tooling around town, it's not that much louder until you hit the throttle.

For any of the Chicago guys, I will be an instructor at the PCA autocross school next month and I will bring the Box S down so you can hear it in person...maybe I'll even get motivated enough to do some recordings to post. You can then draw your own opinions.
