I came across a used PSE on eBay and picked it up for $125 delivered. It was weathered and has over 80,000 miles on it. It was in rough condition and took some work to get it looking nice enough to install on the Boxster.
I had an '03 exhaust that had been modified by Darin Fister at FD Motorsports. The FDM exhaust was a tad louder than the PSE, but the PSE has a deeper tone to it. I didn't bother to hook up the switch for the vacuum controlled valves. The default is for the valves to be open for the louder sound. If I ever stumble across a good deal on some Fabspeed secondary cat delete pipes I'll add them to the mix.
I do like the look of the PSE. They are different looking, fairly rare and OEM, a good mix in my mind.
These are two photos from the listing. It gives you an idea of what I started with.
After some polish and installed.
And, the '03 FDM exhaust....
