The "drill into it" suggestion was not too far off the mark. Have a look at my post at

These posts should give you something to think about. I wasn't prepared to spend big $$ on a minor improvement in sound that resulted in no HP increase. Some of the aftermarkets systems are just way too loud. I was also not prepared to bypass the cat, as the boxster is a convirtable and i would have to cop all the ill fumes at traffic lights.

I have drilled my exhaust to bypass internal chambers somewhat. Externally you cant pick any modification to the exhaust. Its louder but not by much. If i want it louder i can just increase the size of the holes.

Im suprised more people have not done this.
