Anyone here had a Fabspeed exhaust fitted to their 718?

Considering the Streetsport Catback system, but hesitant over dropping c.£2k without doing the proper research.

Thanks!

Do you have PSE? Been doing a lot of research for my 981 Cayman S and it appears that its better to spend ££££ on headers rather than cat-back! I have PSE mind you.

I'm going for headers and x pipe replacement.

Are you going for Fabspeed High Flow Headers? If i keep my 981 past next year then I'll be looking to add, filters, headers, plenum, cobb. Will leave the PSE.

No PSE here, which is why I am looking at the cutback (and potentially turbo/axel back) systems with the high-flow cats so the CEL is not affected.

Given I only really want to 'beef up' the sound when in sport mode and pressing on, I am looking more at the catback options as a nod to retaining the social acceptance from my neighbours. smile

So if anything engine wise went wrong they would blame on the non porsche part?

Worth looking at what Techart have to offer too. They have a nice exhaust and piggy back ECU which makes it v.difficult for OPC to detect that you've modified the car.

Nah I'm going for JCR Porsche (Jonny Cocker Racing) for race headers and x pipe replacement. Jonny is a mate of mine. I have Cobb already.

read a few reviews that says plenum isn't really worth it and in some cases has lost power.
