AKL, Do you have the link to where you purchased your muffler from?

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.

Just tried it and the item has been removed. Just get into ebay and check around under Boxster Mufflers and see what comes up.

If you look closely at the pics of these mufflers you will see that many are exactly the same, all shipped from LA. I love the sound of mine, but you may not, but for that price, as opposed to say $1,200 +, I could afford to give it a try. Car is now music to my ears. How long will the CC muffler last? Don't know but I did keep my original stock muffler just in case. Will you like yours? Only you can say once you can hear it. My car has only the stock exhaust manifold with attached primary cat with O2 sensors fore and aft. Consequently there are no CEL issues and it passes NYState emissions. I have the secondary cat deletes and now this muffler. If you only put on the muffler you may have a bit less sound than I do which may be more to your liking. Hope this helps.
