Care to expand on the topic?

If you want a PSE system, that requires the control system or a dash switch, wiring and vacuum lines. If you're only interested in the increase in sound provided by the bypass pipes, why spend close to or more than $1000?
Better to just buy the $100 bypass pipes in the link I provided and pay a welder or exhaust shop $50 to weld them on for you.

+1 on the bypass pipes. I used the Pedro method.

Awesome sound when you get on the throttle. However, I'm not crazy about the sound at low rpm. Not sure how to describe it...sounds a little too much like an old Rambler with a blown out muffler. I think the PSE solves that issue with the valving.

If I had to do it all over again, I would just send it off to Fister and have them do it.

Yes, Pedro hacked PSEs at idle sound like you have a broken muffler. The real PSEs don't do this for some reason. Also, I think the small pipes used to do the hack, if left visible from the rear, look like plumbing pipe not really fitting for a Porsche. Does sound much better at throttle though.
