This confirms that I need an exhaust.
I want something that looks like standard but sounds raspy and barks when provoked. Most of the aftermarkets I've heard have been too bassy like those stupid ones people fit to scoobys. Eisenmann Race was the best I've heard (on the internet) but I believe it's a bit loud in really life, got the right tone though.
sounds like you need an eisenmann race like meits not too loud at all

That's the video I was talking about.
I'd be a bit worried as Eisenmann state that the race isn't suitable for road. Not sure why.

its my car in the vid, if you want to have a ride and are local to london or somerset happy to let you hear it first hand..
im not sure there is such a thing as too loud?
have you ever come across these guys in your quest ? http://www.zorstec.com/zorstec/
well respected in the 911 world for getting the noise just right without overcooking
.
they were also going to remove central resonator & fit Xpipe to my 645 (they had done similar job around 8/9times previous)
shame i sold it before it happened but i'm currently looking into loosening up my 3.0si

Hi - prototyping going more slowly than I had hoped! Because the silencers are mechanically baffled, not just an expansion vessel filled with wadding, getting it right and making sure there are no weird resonances at odd frequencies takes a bit of time and effort!
Still have very good feeling that we are making progress and will have a product that ticks the boxes! My current silencer is the Eisenmann sport (not race) and is fairly loud at full chat, but not so much to get you kicked off trackdays! I am working for something similar and am keen to try and comply with the 88db limit if possible.#
More to follow soon, but very pleased there are so many people keen!

Love the sound of this, especially as a quad output.
Not too fussed how load though as long as its raspy.
V interested

Prototypes and small batch build costs are way over what I need them to be - building 10 or less is stupid money and I need to get some work done to fund the next prototype!
Not done withthis project yet though - will be back with updates as soon as I have something people can afford!!
