My '88 Carrera had a built 3.2, and exhaust combo that was some combo of headers, Triad race mufflers, heat exchangers with a test pipe, and a B&B two out. Intake was an open element K&N with a MAF conversion. It hauled ass and screamed at high RPMs. And my two 996s that had an intake and exhaust blew it away. My 2001 with Cargraphic mufflers and an EvoMS intake is the best sounding car that I've owned, better than my Maserati Coupe with Tubis. I think you need to drive some better 996s.

A $20k 996 is better than your $40k+ 993 in every quantitative way. Maybe not quite a supercar, but far closer than it's much more expensive predecessor.
