Hey Boku, when you return to earth let me know where I can get tickets for the next event. OMG! A gathering of Charlies Angels and P-cars etc. would be an event for all time. I see you have taken my advice and are "Partying ON"!!!!
Well tomorrow is the big day. We drive to Callicoon to my friends home shop and install the CC muffler. Will give you a run down on Monday how it works out. Unfortunate that it will probably be raining on the way up but Sunday looks dry, at least that is what the "accurate" weather map predicts.

They're still working out the details of the script, but what do you think of the title Mondo Danger ?

Yep, did it yesterday. Stock primary cats, sensors and header with Stebro secondary cat deletes and now my new 18lb Charlie Chan muffler. SWMBO gives it the thumbs up and believe me the lady is acoustically hard to please. Muffler gives a nice low rumble sound and not the high pitched screech I was worried about. No real discernible drone that would drive us both nuts. Very pleased with the set up and between the cat deletes and new CC muffler I dropped a lot of weight in the rear of the car. I will weigh the stock muffler later and report back. Really more of a sports car sound, not quiet but that is not what I was looking for. Eric, my friend who has the 944T race car and a 996 C-4 was worried it would be too loud and I/we wouldn't like it but he says he wishes his C-4 sounded as good.
Muffler was around $300 shipped so it was well worth it. A few issues that I will later describe but nothing serious. I do not know how the hell you would change out the muffler without removing the rear bumper but some here claimed to have done it and my P-car ball cap is off to you flexible souls. Bumper removal was not hard at all and I did not lose or break anything. Be sure to feed your two license lights back through the openings before bolting up the bumper.. Ask me how I know!!!! Also I didn't lose the three pins holding the spoiler cap on this time. Having access to a home garage pro lift and loads of tools was a plus. I can't imagine rolling under the car while up on jacks but again, kudos to those who do it this way. More later
Damn trouble is I now owe the Dangerous one at least a sixpac. :dance: :dance: :dance:

I'm wondering if the Dangerous One also goes by the tag "Pavement". Reminds me of a gamer I used to know.

So am I wrong in assuming that this exhaust will sound the same as Che's from Top Speed, or is there something about this one that it doesn't sound quite the same as Che's?

Probably the same muffler but I have never heard one close up.

Took the plunge
After reading good reviews here and watching some YouTube video I took the plunge and got me the Charlie Chan muffler. $299 with shipping on ebay; 3 days later it was on my door. Just had it installed and must say that I'm joining the buy Johnny Danger a beer group. Luv it. Much deeper sound and just the right loudness. Learning something new every day off this forum; thanks for all for posting pics and especially the video's so I could hear the difference from stock muffler.
