Are there any gains from all that fabspeed stuff or are you just looking for the sound aspect? I looked into fabspeed headers for the 997, but I can’t justify the cost for something that I only want to get the car a bit louder. ---

For the money, no the gains aren’t worth it. But I want sound as well. I didn’t buy a 993 thinking itd ever really be “fast”. But this will make my enjoyment in driving it much better. They say with the headers, intake, tune and exhaust gains from 25-40whp are noticed. I have no clue but for what I paid and what I’m getting, I’ll be happy either way. edit: I’m assuming turbo cars, especially newer cars with more room and technology might be different than my 20 year old N/A car. But I’m not sure ---

You should swing by sometime and have a beer and check it out. It’s moving fast… got ot all the shitty stock exhaust out and the new one is here. Fucking awesome quality. Going to clean her up and then install. Waiting on the coilovers along with various other little parts.
