This exhaust was fitted by Welsh Porsche from cats back for £1077. It has covered 9,000 miles since so is in great condition.

I believe it's a Top Gear exhaust; it matches their current ebay listing...

Controller kit and both key fobs present.

Collect in person from Ferndown, Dorset, or arrange your own courier once payment has cleared.

£600 ono

Pea Roast with updated details
 
I`m seriously tempted, I think when you advertised it before it seemed to be incomplete, the controller and fobs were not in the description :?:

Is there any drone at motorway speeds :?:
 
My builder removed the exhaust and controller etc. when we removed the engine. Took a second trip to remember to ask about the controller and get them back... I thought they had been left on the engine by mistake so was chasing Hartech who obviously couldn't find them :dont know:

Anyway; all complete now :thumb:

Great exhaust, nice and loud when open, and *almost* refined when closed. You can still hear it on the motorway, but I didn't find it intrusive even on four hour + trips.
 
Do you have any idea of the Db level when closed as I do track the Boxster :?:
 
Not a clue, I'm afraid. I'd be pretty confident of going with Top Gear's numbers however...

I think I maybe a bit thick, but I can`t see any noise levels on the TG website for this system :nooo:
 
I never looked to check they had figures :oops:

I guess it will vary slightly car to car. Not sure how I could give you a definitive answer to that... :dont know:

"These valves are controlled by the key fob kit included and allow you to switch from an aggressive sports sound to a more OEM discreet sound with the simple press of a button, giving you two distinct exhaust sounds to choose from! The exhaust is significantly louder and sportier than the original exhaust and also adds some power gains. We would describe the sound as a "sports" sound, not obnoxiously loud but phenomenal to drive at all revs with no drone."

- Quote from Top Gear

Videos are pretty close in my opinion...
