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.
