New 996 for me

Picked this guy up from my brothers car lot last night was a trade in. 1999 with 26k miles on it.






Think this will be my new DD for a while.

Looks nice! Same colors as my '89, just 10 years "newer." Hope to see it cruising around Denver soon!

Yes! I paid all of $60 for a local custom shop to do the Fister mod. Worth every penny and then some.

Small pipe, 1.75in IIRC, to short circuit some of the flow from the inlet to the outlet of the muffler. Sounds AMAZING. I cannot recommend this enough.

Like Matt said, you can get any competent muffler shop to do them. Removing the mufflers is a breeze.* I went through Fister to get mine, which costs more than $60, but at least the work and customer service were top notch.

FD Motorsports » Fister Exhaust – 996

I think mine is 2". I took a few pictures and the cans into the shop, it took them less than an hour.
