porsche 996 / 997 Gen 2 sport Exhaust mufflers

new gen 2 mufflers for the 99-05 996 and 06-08 997s normally aspirated carrera-just released!!

We have designed the Gen2 exhaust systems for the Porsche enthusiast who enjoys the wicked sound of a racecar exhaust, but still wants to drive around town with minimal resonance at low rpms. The Gen 2 Porsche sport exhaust nails it!

The first gen systems were engineered for ulimate power with light weight and just enough noise control to keep the men in blue from pulling you over. While we still make our first gen systems, some customers were asking us for something a little quieter and more socially acceptable. So, we went back to the drawing board and designed the Gen2 versions.

The Gen2 exhausts have the same tubing size and and are of the same high quality TIG welded construction as our original first gen exhaust. Our dyno testing has shown the Gen2 having the same gains in torque and horsepower as with the first gen systems. The difference is in the muffler design. We have engineered these systems to take the "edge" off the sound making them "Wife and Girlfriend approved".

The Gen2 systems use our own 4" diameter (vs 3.5" gen1) stainless steel mufflers. The straight through design has proven itself to be optimum with the least flow restriction (for horsepower) while still providing the proper backpressure for low and midrange torque. Our mufflers feature all stainless steel construction for durability. We wrap the perforated core with stainless steel wool to protect the second layer of high temp ceramic insulation material. They are more expensive to manufacture and slightly heavier than our first gen mufflers but, have been dyno and road tested to provide the performance and more refined sound sought by our more sane customers.

The Gen 2 is available now for the 996 and 997 normally aspirated applications.
