Is it possible to make a 997 Turbo sound as good as a 997 C4S w/PSE??
Hello everyone...
Long time lurker and first time poster here.
Anyway, I had a small question to ask...
I previously owned a 997 Carrera 4S with the PSE and I thought that the car sounded perfect in sport mode. In fact, I drove it sport mode all of the time just for the exhaust. It was loud enough to be entertaining but it was never obnoxious on long trips (it didn't resonate).
After selling the C4S and having gone through some very interesting cars over the last couple of years, I have come to miss the 911's perfect mix between driving pleasure and usability and therefore decided to get another one.
Moral of the story: I test drove a 997.1 Turbo (manual) and loved it...except for the exhaust...which was reminiscent of a..hmmm...hand-drier
Now, my question to you guys is: is it possible do make a 997 TT sound anything like a C4S with the PSE? What exhaust would you suggest? I don't want anything too loud as the car will be my DD (20-30K miles per year). What comes closest to the PSE?
I just don't understand why Porsche didn't offer a PSE for the Turbo?
Thanks in advance for any input.
