Took a visit to Hayward and Scott today in Basildon. Just ordered a full free flow system and can't wait!! (Thats my 30th birthday present to myself)
They reckon it will be about 6 weeks until it will be ready to fit.
Very helpful manager and the exhaust system sounds superb.

what sort of money are they PAC?

and what power/noise increases do they claim?

Thinking of one for my 993, that's all.

Cheers

Scottster, £1600 + VAT, for a full system (i.e including heat exchangers). Supposed to add about 15 bhp, although the exhaust that was fitted to another Carrera added 19bhp as tested on a rolling road.
I've only heard the exhaust whilst idling and sounded nice. Apparently from around 4000 rpm upwards, becomes very loud and race sounding. The system itself looks nothing like the original Porsche system (look far better) and you can shoose the tailpipe size and whether it is rolled in our out.

When I visited they had just fitted a system to an original GT40 and had 4 more GT40 exhausts to complete in April.

Wait time is about 6-8 weeks which is frustrating as I wanted mine ready for mid may as i'm off to France for a few days with PCGB and also up to Porsche in the Park the week after.

Worth having a look mate.


Cheers
