Eliminated the mufflers on the boxster S

[harryrcb]

So how about a sound clip from your new Boxster? Would love to hear it.

Agreed, a boxster with no muffler is really sweet sounding and not nearly as harsh as one might expect. Gurgles at idle and has that really nice flat 6 roar when you get on it.

I am puzzled. Are you saying that you are running straight pipes, no mufflers, no cats?

[jmatta]

I agree; I think that's what he's saying (straight pipes). I had a friend that was building a spec Boxster 2.5 and left the exhaust straight...the car was extremely loud at the track...can't imagine it on the street. He eventually fitted a muffler, since it was causing db issues wherever he took it.

This guy is in San Jose, CA. Don't you get shot there for running no cats and no muffler?

[Brucelee]

If it is SP, then, no he cannot get the car past emissions. Clearly, that would be a no-no in CA.

I smell potential BS here.

Perhaps.

I am running completely catless with stuff in my sig below, but have oem PSE muffler with butterfly valves in the open position.

Car sounds amazing and when you hammer the throttle and get it in the 5000+rpm range!

A friend of mine heard me coming down the hill towards my neighborhood the other day and made the comment to me that it sounded like a race car... He owns an '89 911 coupe and is a porscheophile to the hilt.

I only took off the mufflers, as for the sound I will get on that asap, weather here in CA is not as sunny and beautiful as it use to be!

Would love to hear what this sounds like.. Maybe I'll have them take the mufflers out of my Borla.
