PSE Fitted

[stubbsy996]

Fitted yesterday on my 996 at OPC East London with switch.
Bloody awseome but must sort the cut out

[Lagerlout]

Unplug the bugger in the engine bay. Sorted.

[stubbsy996]

No! Still want the switch option so I'll go for the cut out removal mod, which other PHr's posted.

i ran mine for a year with the cut out. didnt think anything of it.

did the mod a few weeks ago. bloody hell it sounds so good now.

As i said - give me a shout if you have trouble sorting

Another daft one: what's PSE?

[Adam B]

you are on the Porsche forum

they are talking noise so exhausts

the sound is more sporty with a PSE

Porsche Sports Exhaust

www.porsche.com/uk/accessoriesandservice/personalisation/tequipment/911-996/sport/?focus=sportabgasanlage-911-996-sport&hideintro=true

Plenty of previous threads on it with some links to 'before' and 'after' videos etc.

Not entirely sure if this is relevant to your question, but I don't think the tail pipes themselves get replaced.

East london - the whole thing (i.e. not just the pipes) looks just as minging as before!

Sounds right though

You've made me look under my car !!

All the boxes and pipes are brand new and shiny ...

Makes you wonder if someone had found their PSE too noisy and ......

Now matey, thats just NOT possible !

Now you need to sort the cut out and get some new tail pipes from Porsche Design. I went for the twin turbo look ones from Dansk, but they do another set of oval ones that are bigger than stock that look good too. The old ones look naff IMO.

Might go for the twin look ones eventually. Have to give the old credit card time to recover from the PSE first though

[windymiller]

Thought so, but couldn't work out what the 'switch' reference was about? It's not an active exhaust system is it?

And second daft question (remember, I'm a 996 newbie) are the tailpipes seperate from the actual system? Read a few things that seem to suggest this.

[windymiller]

Damm. Just read the link to PSE on the Porsche site - all understood!

[bermyandy]

Personally prefer the look of the large oval pipe myself. Twin ones, atleast by porsche anyway, were 'fake' twins which kind of spoiled the look for me

Guys.

if you have got an old set of tail pipes on the car that are looking a little tired, give them a buff up with some t-cut. it works a treat on the chrome
