    PORSCHE SPORT EXHAUST - review and pictures

    Just a little teaser for you guys, more to follow this evening, incl. more pictures, a description of the sound compared to the old sport exhaust and...voila...a short video file with sound.

    Look at the second pipe...finally not that cheap looking stuff like on the standard exhaust. It isn't perfect but it is definetely an improvement.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    Can't wait

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    You love to tease, don't you!

    My dealer had Madrid check dierctly with the factory and just confirmed me the delivery of my 997S in the last week of April or first of May with the Porsche Sport Exhaust!

    So get a postin' mo pictures and the sound file!

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    yes do that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Cant wait i listened yesterday to the PSE 996 and was amzed and it was a 3.4 996

    I still dont like the looks so much and moreover why cant porsche fit the ending of the exhaust to be one piece and they always have to place different piece tailpipes?

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    BTW i heard that on a 996 with a sport exhaust if you placed also the sport tailpipes the sound was even better?
    Can anyone confirm this because i cant find any logic on it.
    The only explanation i was given was that the sports tailpipes were enhancing the sound via their special inside design which helped to spread the sound and thus be more loud

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    OK, I really really hate you right now! ... give a cheer to Rossi and Pedrosa for me

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    RC, Thank you for that. I will tell you though,that there is an exhaust that we have coming, for 997's that will blow you all away. I will be sending photos, and performance
    increase numbers, later. Remember, Porsche makes no horsepower increase claims, what so ever with there sport
    exhaust system. Revvv @ Champion

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    well do that revvv i m very interested!! get your asses at work!

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    i think you have to take a picture from a different angle. we dont care how the tailpipe is inside.!! we want to see how it looks like and how it sounds!!!!

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    Here are more pictures, the video is following shortly.

    3.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    4. I like the rims but I don't like that chrome.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    My car was delivered yesterday and didn't even have the optional tailpipes

    These tail pipes come standard with the sport exhaust.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    the exchaust is Impressive!!

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    Below is the VIDEO with SOUND!
    PLEASE don't click on the file directly, right-click the file with your mouse and download/save it to your local harddisk.
    The file is a Apple Quicktime movie, if you don't have Quicktime installed, you can get it HERE. Just click on the link and choose your download language.

    Sound description: the new 997 Carrera S Porsche Sport Exhaust seems to be a tick less loud than the 996 sport exhaust. But there is that same "throaty roar" which is a very nice addition to the high pitch race car roar of the Carrera S above 4500-5000 rpm. Personally I think the PSE is a good addition for the 997 Carrera S but if you're driving a lot at rpm figures in the 1500-4000 rpm range, you should be aware that the exhaust is definetely louder.
    On cars equipped with chrono sport package, the sport exhaust is activated by pressing the SPORT button.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    Does the exhaust sound the same with PSE switched off as a non-PSE equipped 997S?

    Almost but I didn't have the chance to hear it for a very long time.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    Hard to tell from the interior acustics but has a nice deep growl and looks like it will be pretty loud at higher revs.

    Is there a way to have the PSE activated while the Sport Chrono is OFF? like a double switch kind of like the PASM-sport gets activated by Sport Chrono as well but you can also select it without Sport Chrono ON?

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    I'm afraid that when chrono sport is off, the "sound" is off too. BTW: I was looking for the vacuum hose like on the old PSE but I couldn't see one. Maybe I didn't look carefully enough. Interesting is also the fact that there is a second pipe on the muffler, so this isn't a simple louder original exhaust.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    I'll have to start pluking some fuses and find a way to get around that doesn't make sense to me not to be able to enjoy the PSE without the sport chrono , the sport chrono also decreases the PSM & ABS threshold so sometimes I may not want to have it on like on wet days or very highspeed highway driving, yet I may still want to hear the PSE.

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    "vacuum hose "
    what do you mean RC?

    I think also tha the new PSE is not related to rev counter so de-activating it will require a different procedure than the 996.It is related to different factors

    But i m concerned by the fact that is a tick less loud than 996!

    Does anybody know if PSE on 996 had different sound between 3,4 and 3,6 models?
    Was there any loudness difference? and if any wa it noticeable?

    Re: Porsche Sport Exhaust - review and pictures

    something that ticks my mind
    BTW i heard that on a 996 with a sport exhaust if you placed also the sport tailpipes the sound was even better?
    Can anyone confirm this because i cant find any logic on it.

    Yeah, I guess it can get a bit annoying if you have to be in Sport mode all the time to enjoy the sound. Especially in city traffic.

    These different diameter tailpipes still don't look good to me (just as the chromed rims...).

    It seems so simple to add a PSE button on it's own. Oh well, I'm not a Porsche engineer.

    perfect videos, but that bird $hiTT...
