Been very happy with my Dansk. Dont have a large basis for comparison but I would say the consensus is that it doesnt growl quite as much as Fab Speed but it is more agreesive than stock. Wayne Dempsey does a great overview on muffler upgrades in his 101 Boxster Pojects book.

Its my understanding that Dansk supplies Porsche with their exhaust systems. In fact, in the case of the boxster exhaust, I believe that the Dansk unit is essentially the same as the oem without all of the insulation . FVD/Brombacher is Dansk's agent in the USA.

Friend of mine installed the 200 cell cats and headers on his 996C4 Cab and is very impressed with the quality. Nice video with sound of the muffler on the site sited above so you can get an idea of the sound. Very tempting!!!!

I have the complete NHP system listed in my signature on my 2.7. I really like it. The header design gets some criticism from folks that know a lot more about headers than me. But, I think the price point is good, the quality is good, they seem to perform well (butt dyno) compared to stock, and there is no drone.

I've been driving this winter with my hardtop on and haven't thought about the exhaust system. Recent weather has allowed me to drive with the windows down and I was quickly reminded how nice it sounds. I think it is about perfect. Some may think it isn't loud enough.

I'd bet Jeremy@FabSpeed would put together a little group buy for us if we are really interested.

With my 987 S as my fair weather DD, and I haven't even driven it yet, I'd be a little nervous changing the exhaust or headers or cats, etc. I changed things on my 360 for a nice loud F1 sound on a play car, but messing with the exhaust system on my Boxster might not happen. I could be talked into it though...
