    Wow this pole has gone to sh**. At least you guys had fun, but you forgot to mention farting in the bath tub. That always has the wow effect.

    LOL. I'd like to vote, but out of the 3, I've only heard the PSE, so my vote would be a bit biased. I can vouch that the PSE sounds great though!

    Re: What has the best sound?

    Yeah I would imagine most are familiar with the PSE, and from what I have heard from the fellow rennteamers it sounds great. My dilemma is that for the price I would like to have some more horse power, but with out ruining the Porsche sound. Tubi probably has a nice sound but it's expensive and doesn't give as much horse power as AWE. AWE seems to have the best HP numbers but I am not sure if the sound is all that.

    Between Tubi and PSE I pick PSE. I can't comment on the AWE system, I've only heard the web-clips.

    I must say the most awesome Porsche sound is produced by the back of the Carrera GT. It sounds awesome when you drive it, and it sounds incredible when it blows by you at high speeds!

    Re: What has the best sound?

    CGT sound is much better and at least its not authentic.
    I just dont understand the sound the Zonda F makes, it doesn't make sense out of a Merc torque monster engine.
    Gives me the wrong impression (altohugh still sounds fabulous).

    I don't know edz, the CGT sound captivates me. A Ferrari sound in comparison to the CGT sounds like an automated cheese grater IMO. But compared to the rest of the Porsche line, I think Ferraris have the edge.

    would i not be correct in saying possibly 75%+ of us who have heard one of the above haven't heard all three to be able to compare?

    I prefer the Tubi to the PSE in real life having driven cars with bith fitted but have not heard the other one.

    I agree CGT sounds awsome but it's not a typical Posche you see on the street everyday. The CGT is an exception. But generally speaking Ferraris; i.e. 328, 355, 456, 550, 575M, 512M, 512TR, 612 and even the old Dino they all sound beautiful

    Re: What has the best sound?

    I have installed EvoMS mufflers (same as FABSPEED), EvoMS headers (look same as FAB), and the FABSPEED RMS filter and 'ugly red' tube.

    Sound is wonderful for the 1st time; nice trombone-like note at 3-5K and moderate-low throttle, and at strong throttle the change in valve lift at 5.3K produces a wild yowl, that continues only slightly diminshed to 7K.

    The car also now is very quick, and enjoys revs much more.Original sound above 5K did not impress me. Oh! They are 3.6 Cab(my lady wife)and 3.8 C2.
