You should check out the sound on the 997S with the muffler bypass pipes. Sounds even sweeter. They make the bypass pipes for the 2nd cat for the 986, but seems like no one in this forum have tried it.

Hey Jeph, yeah I love this forum. A lot of good threads. A lot incomplete. But mainly its because I'm up in the Northeast, the roads are icy and sloppy with snow. Although it is supposed to warm up this week! And its busy season for me so I'm in the office a lot on wknds and nights. Cabin fever.

2000 S with no muffler. Very loud when you step on it and resonance is horrible at 2000 to 2700 rpm. If all I did was drive it once in a while around town and at the track, I'd keep it this way. Using it for a commute car and doing any long distance freeway driving is rapidly becoming impossible to live with.

Personally, I find cars (of any type) with the overly loud tailpipe action to be obnoxious. A porsche is a racer, but it is also classy car, not a hoopty. All that look a me noise is for children that have no respect for their neighbors.
