I have an 02 S with the PSE. I hear more out of the intake vent than I do from the exhaust. I would also like to hear more "burble" at idle.

Maybe you can have your valves clamped to stay in the bypass position at all times, and also install cat bypass pipes? I have listened to a fellow Boxster owner's PSE with cat bypass pipes, and it sounded pretty good.

I was thinking that same thing, they had a pair of bypass pipes on Ebay for $200, then they went up to $1200. WTF? Anyway, I may see about having a local exhaust shop make some up.
