DHA Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Had my tubi style exhuast fitted yesterday by Scuderia Systems in Egham. Tubi style usually make exhausts for Ferraris and Lamborghinis but have started to make exhausts for Porsches. The exhaust for the Boxster S is the newest product they have. Fitting took most of the day as this was the first Boxster they have worked on so needed to get used to the car. I collected my car late in the afternoon yesterday and was very impressed with the results. The original tailpipe ends are retained, although tubi may offer different ones in the future, which allows a stock look to the car. Here is a picture of one of the lovely stainless steel backboxes. When you start the car up there is a more defined growl. The standard setup to the car is too quiet in my opinion. I wanted more of a noise and now I have that. At low revs there is a very deep sound to the car now, this eases off around 3,500rpm then above 4,000rpm the noise becomes a scream. Having this exhaust fitted has made the Boxster S sound like a true sports car. I will take some video later and upload them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Sounds like you happy about the new addition to your motor. I think the exaust on my sportback is enough aftermarket sounding as it is. Not sure I want to enhance the 4cylinder thrash much either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does sound nice inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
