Installed the Brombacher today. Started the 986 on the Quickjack to check for leaks (none). Sounds more ‘solid’ and much quieter at idle than the Borla. I can already tell that I’m going to be a happy camper.

As an aside, I really don’t see how anyone can install a standard size muffler like this without removing the rear bumper cover, rear bumper w/heat shield and the rear fender skirts w/heat shields. Especially because these parts are so easy to remove.

Here’s a couple of pics.
