I'm confused now...are we talking about 5`5, 105 lbs, size 4 feet, addicted to kendals,tanned and smells like heaven, added to the passenger seat.
Or welding my exhausts
Either way with the car in the up on stands at the mo I was a little worried at the state of the manifold studs, I can't see them comming of in a hurry :nooo:

I'd like a Switchable Sports Exhaust for my 996.1 (or for that matter any Sports exhaust with a throaty sound) but was rather put off by the £3,400 price tag.
Do people really spend that much on an upgraded exhaust or can they be got cheaper somewhere?

Assuming you don't find an OPC doing a sale, or get one off the back of eBay, I guess that leaves similar high-end sports exhausts or spend between £175 and £300 and get an Oettle bypass done by your local TIG welder.
Had mine done at Haywood and Scott in Essex for £250.

997 Short shifter. For 1 hours work and £200, about the best value/satisfying performance upgrade out there :thumb:
Other things, descending cost:
1. KWv3 suspension upgrade (Center Gravity)
2. GT3 rollbars (Center Gravity)
3. Spacers and extended bolts to get the rims to fill the arches properly
4. Can of tyre foam and get rid of the spare (great little performance mod!)
5. Colour coded Key fob
Something for everyone

Very happy with all mine and they are reversible.
In prefered order:
Graphite alloys
Kenwood double din for satnav and iPod
Led rears sidelights and number plate lights
Clear front indicator bulbs
Rear blade wiper
I want to get the exhaust bypass done but I don't want it too be too loud because I park on the street and do a lot of motorway miles and I can't stand a drone. At the risk of highjacking this thread, is there a pipe diameter which is a good trade off between noise and comfort?
