Tubi Exhaust on a 997S - should I or should I not?

I found a good deal on a Tubi exhaust for my 997S. I know these sound insane on Ferrari's but how would it sound on my car? I've heard a lot of good things about Fabspeed, AWE, and Cargraphic but I wanted to see what you guys thought of Tubi. Also, I'm putting my TechArt sideskirts on tomorrow! TIA

I had a 997S with a tubi headers/exhaust on it last weekend and it sounds downright menacing, kind of like a neutered cup car. The owner may be getting ready to part the car if he cannot sell it as-is with the mods on it, if you're interested it only has 3K miles on it.

I like TUBI, but for some reason i'm leaning towards CARGRAPHIC, maybe cuz it has a much aggressive sound!!

The only feedback I've heard personally of the Tubi setup is from RufMD who had it on his 997 gt3. From what I've gathered he absolutely loved it and is acutally putting it on his RS soon...I have a feeling that is going to be quite the menacing exhaust note!

Thanks for the feedback guys. Alex-- I saw that same video on youtube and wasn't impressed, but then again if your digital camera sucks or you're not that close it's hard to tell in these videos. The AWE sounds better in the video but I thought Tubi was supposed to be the best sound (at least for a Ferrari).

Zamirz, where are you located and how much? Can you beat $1,300 shipped (the one I'm looking at has under 500 miles on it)? PM me if you'd like!

Anyone else have an opinion on this? I thought Tubi fans were die hard. $1300 for a used set... trying to make a move on it
