Poor Baby!

I listened to your exhaust on your video and it doesn't sound any louder than my stock 986 exhaust note. I guess I better avoid small children when I drive around.

It's hard to capture in a recording - but trust me, my car doesn't sound stock at this point.

Crios exhaust mod

SD, I finally drove my car after I did the mod (I made the holes a little bigger than I wanted ) and I think it sounds really good. I drove to work in the morning with the top up and home with it down(about 70 miles each way). It's not as noticable with the top up but when it's down you can hear it up to about 3k rpms. I am seriously thinking of going a little bigger on the holes, the exhaust sounds like music to my ears. I have always liked a good sounding exhaust, which is why both my Harley's have after market pipes.

I'd rather hear a flat six burp to life than a chopped Harley exhaust on throttle, noise pollution is a fact of modern life, get used to it chillins'.

I never said it was chopped exhaust systems I had on my bikes. We have a saying "If I have to explain, then you wouldn't understand " I think the same could be said about driving a Boxster or any Porsche.
