Getting "The Sound"...........


Recommended Posts

If I de-snorkeled my '02 986S and added a sport exhaust like a B&B......would it be too much or

too loud? I miss tha aural sensation of an air-cooled 911. Would this help or am I barking up the

wrong tree? Opinions wanted.............

I've added an EVO intake and modified my stock muffler to be a step or so louder, and it's been a great mod. On the highway, the engine sound is present, but not overwhelming. My wife and I have taken plenty of 3-8 hr trips and it's complementary without being invasive. When I open the car up at an Auto-X or such, the car stands out from the stockers, sounding more like a GT3. Have fun with it!

De-snorkel does wonders for increasing induction sound, if want a step further it would have to be EVO intake (whole air box replacement)

Exhaust size, good headers are essential to get the near GT3 sound. maybe also modify your muffler (bypass pipes)

Who sells the intakes?.....typical price?.....how did you "modify" your stock muffler?

Does the factory snorkel keep water and dirt out better?.......Is there a downside to removing it?

I saw a thread where it said to remove the side grill and just pull on it hard.....is there any danger

of pulling some other stuff apart by using this method?
