AJ,
The Fabspeed does sound nice (at least according to the Fabspeed video clip) but I cannot get over the fact that it extends from below the back bumper and is very noticeable - doesn't look right.

Just had Champion Motorsport in Pompano Beach install the Tubi, PSE Cayman round exhaust tips (MAN DO THEY LOOK SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE FACTORY TIPS!), H&R Springs for PASM, and 19" Champion Motorsport RG5 Forged Alloys (weigh 10 lbs less per wheel than stock). Tire size is 235 up front, 275 in back. I left the stock Porsche colored wheel caps for a semi-stock look. This is a totally different car now and I do not regret one bit spending the money. First of all, the Tubi has such a nice growl at high rpms (kind of like a 360 modena) and low end throaty sound that the stock exhaust was missing by far. The throttle response is far better and I can noticeably feel better power in the upper rev range. As far as handling, the springs lower the car slightly and give it a much better center of gravity. There is no rubbing and the ride is just slightly firmer. The folks at Champion are top notch professionals. They do superb work and are a pleasure to deal with. Check them out:

The Tubi is all I tweaked on the engine side. The exhaust is not for everyone. At low rpm's there is a boominess in the cabin, but at rpms over 2.5-3k there is no issue at all. In the higher rev range, the car truly shrieks. I blew by a guy in an S2000 yesterday and I could swear the look on his face was pure bewilderment when I saw him at the next stoplight. He had no idea a Boxster could make such nice sounds. If you are looker for a more aggressive sound I would recommend it to anyone.

Where can I get the Cayman PSE exhaust tips independant of the entire exhaust system?
