I read thru the other thread that talks about the FVD Brombacher. A little pricey but seems like a good way to go. Any reason you went with the Circuit Werks over the Top Speed pipes? To me in the pictures at least, the Top Speed ones seem to be a little cleaner looking and doesn't have the O2 sensors plugged.

I have the FVD Brombacher 'sound version' muffler. Highly recommended!
I installed it myself in 2010 and have worked with a few others on choosing this muffler (10/10ths, Por356,,,).
After 8 years I still love the sound and it still looks like new, very high quality.
I added Top Speed 2ndary cat bypass pipes, which turns up the volume to the perfect level, reasonable at idle and around town, and pure Porsche flat 6 sound under acceleration. I was not aware of Circuit Werks or maybe they didn't make them then. No CEL issues on my 2002, or supposedly on any Boxster with 4 cats because the O2 sensors are on the 1st set of cats.
Reports are accurate, absolutely no drone, likely due to same outer case design as OEM muffler.
Rhonda may give a forum discount if you contact her before ordering. Mine was approx. $1100 in 2010.
