993 exhaust - what options?
Discussion
Having owned my 993 for a few weeks now :-) I am getting the urge for a better sound. I beleive the silencers have been modified slightly, cut and rewelded, but it still isnt quite enough. I have seen the maxflow video on design 911 and heard a supercup system on sunday, albeit with the baffles removed (sydned) it sounded too loud, but it may be better with the baffles in. Does anyone live with one of these on a regular basis? (baffles in) Is it too loud?
What other after market options are there? I here mention of RSR - what is it? any others I should consider?

RSR- Yum yum.
Bought by 993 with them fitted. Apparently you send your existing exhausts to someone in the States, they split them, take baffles out and put them back together along the existing seams, but that's hearsay on my part.
They look standard to me, but certainly don't sound it.
Not very sociable, and by g/f can hear the last mile of my journey if I'm "playing" and she's in the back garden. Nice burble, a few pops on overrun if you lift off suddenly - in a straight line only, obviously
Non-intrusive at motorway speeds.
I'm Essex based but visiting Dorset for two weeks starting Sunday if you want a listen.

Gert has sold me both my set for my 993's !
And being in europe, about 2 hours from Calais.. Take a drive over and get them fitted there !

Too loud? No. Measured 96db at a static test at Brands Hatch.
In my car, it is a bit boomy from 2000 to 3000rpm, but it is tolerable.
TBH after coming from a 964 with de-cat and sport silencer, the RSRs sounds a bit tame so I might sell them on at some point and get something more aggressive (I still have my originals).

Having read all the posts, it seems I am looking for something in between the RSR (too quiet) and Fabspeed Supercup (too loud) What options does that leave? Where can I buy them and who else has fitted one?

There is LPMM mentioned on rennlist, not sure what it stands for but it basically involves welding a 2" piece of stainless steel tube between the in pipe and outpipe on the back box!GG33

Sid - Where abouts is 'the area'? I might take you up on that.

I live in Wootton which is just off J15 of the M1. If you're not too far I can always use an excuse to take her out to blow the cobwebs off! I've repacked the baffles with some wire wool and fibreglass, and I think you'll be impressed with the sound. Way quieter than it was on Sunday, but still more throaty than standard.GG
