Question 996tt Exhaust -- Help!

Hi guys and gals,

I just bought my first Porsche, a 2002 996 Turbo Coupe- 30K miles and still like new. I love the car profoundly, but I have a problem. The PO had put a Fabspeed exhaust on the car. It sound good throughout most of the rev range, but unfortunately, the part of the range where I spend the most time, between 2,000 and 3,000 rpm, it is way, way too loud.

Here's my thing: occasionally I let her wail, and I don't care how loud it is then. But when I am cruising on the freeway at 2200 rpm in 6th, I want it reasonably quiet. I may have an opportunity to grab a Tubi - I know they can be loud, but at what rpms are they loud, or, more to the point, are they reasonably quiet between 2,000 and 3,000 rpm?

I am open to any and all suggestions for a replacement. Does anyone want to trade? I know that Fabspeed makes 4 models for the Turbo, but I have not yet identified which one I have yet, though I can describe it.
