PSE exhaust
Well,
here is my thought on the exhaust. The installer had a ******************** of a time installing it when i got put in since the pipes were 1.5 and they rubbed against the bumper which made it look odd. The guy did a great job though installing it and the sound is close to that of lambo.. My wife though is ********************ing that is sounds so loud .. So i am thinking of replacing it :( . I have actually been in contact with this seller http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche-986-Boxster-Boxster-S-97-04-Rear-Exhaust-System_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4634Q2ec0Q2em14Q 2el1262QQhashZitem250361695046QQitemZ250361695046Q QptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories He gave me a great price... So i think i might go for it and do some headers while i am at it . Shoot me some offers.. shipping is going to vary on the location.. Looking for ideal amount for it .. since it cost me 120 for the stainless steel 150 for the muffler which has 11k miles and then 200 to install and fabricate the muffler .. so.. figure those in when u shoot me an offer. I will accept some trades but I would have to see what your offering. |
If i may ask, Is this a genuine PSE(Tequipment) or a hacked "Pedro" exhaust mod?

Check your Private Messages, I left one. I've got a proposition for you.

FWIW, my 02 has the pse with no switch. I think that came as an option later.

It has what I would call wastegates, i'm not sure of the exact term. (i'm sure somebody can correct me).
At anyrate, you only hear it above a certain rpm. At idle it doesn't seem to be any noticeable difference than a non pse version, to my old ears anyways lol. :cheers: |
The PSE functions 2 fold, it has/may be fitted with an electrical switch that will open/close the bypass pipe via vaccum actuators at will/at any time otherwise the PSE is always ON by default(without the switch). The actuator also opens the wastegate at a certain RPM range.
I personally didn't hook up the electrical vacuum switch because i prefer the system to be ON default at all times. On comparing the PSE Tequiptment vs. Pedro mod.(VERY INTERESTING); the bypass pipes on the Pedro originates from the main inlet BEFORE the muffler can whereas the PSE Tequiptment bypass pipe originates FROM the muffler can to the tips... Airflow between the two muffler are different. ... I am sure that everyone who has the original PSE Tequiptment can verify the bypass pipe placement. The PSE does not sound like the Pedro (or vice-versa). On Performance, no one really knows whether there is an increase or decrease with the Pedro mod. unless a scientific comparison is completed(perhaps Raby did the comparison study already). |
It's a Pedro mod. on a standard, single oval outlet, muffler. He's looking to sell so if someone is looking for one, this is it.

What does the PSE vs Pedro sound like?

If your wife thinks that your muffler is too loud now, I bet she will hate the one you are looking at even more, not only from how loud it will be or end up being as it ages and burns out some but also from the drone inherent to that design. For better a better exhaust note your best bet might be to pick up a stock muffler on the cheap and then do the CRIOS mod to it...start with a smaller drillbit and go up in steps until you get to an acceptable level. Just my .02 cents because $550 for a muffler is quite a bit to take a chance on. |
