Well if I get the exhaust I'll sell you mine and it will offset my price. They have about 500 miles on them.

Can I just re-confirm ?

The price is for the rear muffler (exhaust), sports cat and tip ??

Hmmm, I had a look at one of the online sites and for the same price, they were offering just the rear muffler or at least the picture showed only that (description was alittle sketchy),

Ok help out a newbie, I have done a ton to my car though mostly visual, repair, maintenance (most not needed but I wanted to learn and be capable of doing anything to the car).

I haven't touch air intake or exhaust other then removing and cleaning throttle body. I have watch some fabspeed videos on internet but haven't taken the time to dig in and really understand. I am very interested. Will the car drone at highway and be tiring on long trips (though I do so few), will I have no issues with inspections, is performance noticeable?

Is there a good place to research what is included in this deal....or should I just go learn and come back later

Thanks guys, ...oh 2000 'S' manual.

I may interested I'm in for some exhaust work asap but I'm concerned about the drone. I don't drive the car often but when I do I'm there for an hour each way. I have some maintenance to take care, the MAF is throwing up a CEL and the rear cats are on their last legs (now gettting a rattling sound). My Indy can take a while to turn around a car since he's usually booked solid so I need to figure out when I can be without the car for a few weekends. In the meantime shopping for a Dansk and open to other no-droners.

I went to their site and am looking into it. How well would this work without the headers, I see they are not included (or did i misunderstand). Also how important is a ECU upgrade. Do folks have cell light issues? Again newbie but starting to get interested in performance add ons. Thanks for the help.

Oh and everything in this picture without the headers?:

Yep, all but the headers, that is my understanding. ECU upgrade would help I imagine but is it really needed? No CEL!


Bump for a good group buy!!

Take it from someone who has researched virtually every known exhaust brand for the 986 boxster over the years, Fabspeed's products have culminated into some really good stuff. Were it not for the fact that my vehicle is already equipped with a full aftermarket exhaust system, I wouldn't hesitate to jump on this offer.

Hmmm. Intereting. I'll have to ask my sales rep what the deal is.
