Hello
i recently traded my 2020 992 chrono and sport exhaust
i recently was able to score a 4s July build
i maxed out around 130 which left me with limited options
i went with chrono and Upgraded rims
my concern is that this car will arrive yet a beast but quiet compared to what I was used to.
does anyone have experience using the 992 with and without pse?

Everyone who has a 992 has the choice to turn on or off the PSE. The sound is most pronounced in sport mode however in sport plus mode it disengages putting all emphasis on performance.

Given that you’ve chosen only two options the sport exhaust would not be the most valuable option to put on the car. It adds sound but no performance gain . ultimately I think you’re going to put it as well as other options. I did a hypothetical build of just your two options. Then I put some modest options on it and the gap was $10,000. I think it’s worth it to spend somewhere in that range to make sure that you enjoy the next five years with that car with a balance of performance and modest comforts .

I like the stock 4 pipes on the C4s opposed to the big round ovals for sport exhaust

Porsche also offers the quad sport tailpipes . Those are actually the nicest of the quads. They have them in silver or black so the choice of either is available.

I like the quad tailpipes too. Not offered on a GTS

GTS comes standard with PSE . I love the pipes on the PSE . It reminds me of the 08 Gt2 . 2008 Porsche 911 GT2 @ Top Speed

Nice! To add to the exhaust topic. Porsche has moulded the rear bumper to fit the pse round tailpipes, good lock going with aftermarket double pipes in the future 😜

I bought my 2017 car at 59. I am 64 and still cooking !! I love white cars . In fact the last 12c years were white cars for me as my daily driver in Florida . I felt the need to try something different but I almost bought another white car all the way to the lock date . Thus convincing me is easy . I did open my mind to looking at EVERY color . I even did a build in every color and staggered it in terms of the risk . I took myself far out of my comfort zone to ponder it . The higher risk colors were more modest in case I decided to bail out . In the end it was a dead heat of Gt silver Vs white . Both were my highest builds .

I asked for help on Rennlist and they obliged . Members posted pictures of their cars . It made the choice veery hard . These three threads drove me nuts in my decision ...

1) Poll on the super bright colors - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums

2) Why are so many silver buyers not repeat silver buyers ? - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums

3) I cant find a white 992 picture thread - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums

In the end .., this is picture that sold me on Gt silver .

I wish I had not opted for the Sport Exhaust and instead gone with a different wheel other than standard. Sport Exhaust to me is a gimmick. But the salesman said I needed to include it for resale. Not necessary and as others have said, the quad pipes look very nice from the rear. Spend your money wisely.

Ahhh yes!
The burps don’t impress me as I had it on my 2020. I had an 06 c4 that was quiet. That’s why I’m timid.
thanks fir the feedback

Of course it’s not needed. In fact the quad pipe stock exhaust is surely sufficient. That is especially the case with the cab. However I like the noise. I think the audible sounds add a pleasant compliment . The option of turning it on or all is always available although I put it on as soon as the cars warmed up. Even do it in my Macan turbo.

 

[Diane Garcia]

Just saying my take on it is if I had to do over, I would have opted for the nicer wheels. Isn't there always some sort of regret when you build a car for purchase? Only took me 3 months to decide on options!
