    europipe is $5K installed in the U.S. Milltek is about the same but they have a 24 hour sale to buy it for $3500 and pay for installation.

    Sportec has electronic throttles that open/close depending on throttle, boost, rpm etc so not really comparable with the others.. Expect power gains to be similar for all aftermkt exhausts. Its down to sound preference, build quality and price. Only way to know is to hear them in person.. And you ll need to chip your car to really notice the difference! It becomes a different car!

    Re: 997TT exhaust choice..

    Looked at all exhausts & ultimately bought a tubi a couple of weeks ago. europipe was my 2nd choice then cargraphic. Spoke to guys that sell & install Milltek, fabspeed, AWE, etc. & they recommend tubi based on sound & quality. Spoke to Alex from Shark Werks, he's installed all of the above & ranked tubi #1. A couple of guys on 6 speed recently switched their Milltek exhausts to the tubi. I was already leaning towards tubi based on recommendations from installers & based on the quality that I've seen on tubi's Ferrari systems when I heard the 997 turbo tubi in person & that sealed my decision. Plus the tubi is a fully welded system, I didn't like the idea of the parts of the system being held together with clamps & straps. The tubi is a little more money than the Milltek etc. but worth it.

    I finally got my soundcard working and was able to listen to the sound clips you posted. I think you made the right choice (seems you always do) with the Tubi! Alex from Sharkwerks is a real class act!

    I've got a Sportec exhaust, which I chose not to be too noisy", although much better than the standard one! I will surely recommend it for a non-extreme set up!

    I have just been told by TubiSytle that in their R&D for the Turbo exhaust they couldn't improve much on the OEM headers, so they concluded the OEM headers were fine as they are.

    Re: 997TT exhaust choice..

    In doing research on headers/exhaust systems, I found that there's really not that much of a benefit to swap out headers on a turbocharged car. However on a normally aspirated car, that'd be another story.

    Ditto - the guys at Europipe built and tested headers for the 997 Turbo but couldn't measure consistent performance gains on the dyno.

    10-4 you are right, however headers help more with the torque on the TT

    I have the Cargraphic TUV Sound version which is good for 25 HP, has no resonance and sounds great. Not too loud yet it allows the motor to rev.

    Re: 997TT exhaust choice..

    After hearing the low deap tones of the stock exhaust on my MY08 Turbo I picked up today, I am now re-thinking whether I need a sports exhaust at all.

    Certainly not the 'vacuum cleaner' sounds that earlier models produced.

    I put on the Milltek and love the sound.
    Already had Fabspeed tips which fitted perfectly.
    Pipes cost approx 1800 pounds sterling in the UK

    does the exhaust change affect the car's warranty? only exhaust system, no chips or anything else.
