I've tried everything I can to get used to it, but I have to be honest: while the 2013 exhaust sounds good, the dB level in the GTS (at mid throttle to WOT) is on par with my 1966 GT350 race car (with side exhaust, no mufflers). As a long-time racer, I know what constant exposure to this level...

Since I purchased my GTS a month or so back I’ve had a number of Viper owners ask me how the car compares to earlier model Vipers. So I decided I would start to put down some of those thoughts in writing for anyone who’s thinking about ordering a Gen V down the road.
For starters, here's a...
In terms of QC, my 2013 991 Carrera is now losing by an even wider margin to my 2013GTS LE. Last night I received a recall notice about the 991 Carrera's exhaust system. Apparently, NHTSA believes 991 exhaust systems are prone to fall of and damage cars following behind. Guess I need to get that...
Hopefully this isn't a violation of forum policy ... posting a link to my ad in the classified section. If it is LMK and I will remove it asap.
I have a almost new (<100 miles) Belanger cat back exhaust, high flow cats and cat install kit for sale. It was just a little louder than I wanted...
I can only imagine how *&$$&%!$ the owner was (still is) ... :mad:

Just wanted to introduce myself as a relatively new owner of a 2000 GTS, Gray/White. The car had 1800 miles on the odo when I bought it a few months ago. I'm now approaching 3000 miles and doing a few upgrades.
The first upgrade is going to be Tom's rear brake upgrade... I've raced in a...
