Pse Muffler Part Numbers

[lamesacarrera]

I just received my PSE from Brandywine Porsche today via Fedex. I was hoping for some help to verify that the part #'s I received are correct and the most current. An old post of Loren's from 5/14/03 lists the muffler #'s for the "new" PSE as:

996 111 984 03 left

996 111 985 03 right

Loren's post also lists the kit part # as 000 044 200 19 which is what my box says. However, them mufflers themselves show engraved part #'s:

996 111 984 01

996 111 985 01

Manufacture date looks like 7/29/03 if that helps. The manufacturer is Eisenmann if anyone is curious who makes these mufflers for Porsche. Maybe the part #'s were changed again since the 5/03 Loren post? It does look like mine have the larger bypass pipes that are inherent to the "new" PSE mufflers.

This is for a '02 C2 Coupe, 6 sp and I am installing with no electronics.

Thanks in advance for some validation! Can't wait to hear for myself if this mod is really all that!

Yes, 03 is an updated part that replaced the 01 version. Should work fine.

Loren, thank you. Any difference between the 03 and 01? In other words, any benefit I will be missing out on?

Also, I should clarify that the post from 5/03 I was referring to was from funcarsonline.

Very little different in the 01 and 03 part numbers. The very early (1999-2000) version that I have has smaller bypass pipes - otherwise they are functionally the same.

Got it installed Friday--fabulous, thanks again Loren!

Jason,

Where did you get it installed and, if I may ask, how much did it cost?

Thanks,

Scott,

I had it installed at a good independent shop near my house, Dennis Sherman Foreign Car which services BMW, late VW, Audi and Porsche. Great guys--honest, quick, reasonable and right near my house in La Mesa. $124 installed w/no electronics.

If you were asking how much the PSE itself was, I paid $1500+$30 for shipping, no tax from Brandywine Porsche.

You will love it, I really enjoyed it this weekend--way nastier sound.

Thanks. I'm thinking about getting the PSE from Brandywine as well, but installed at the dealer. I imagine the dealer's price will be a bit higher, but we'll see.

Thanks again,

Scott

I got mine from Brandywine too, had it dealer installed for $250, which is probably a little high since it probably took them no more than an hour or so, but I think the book says it takes a couple hours (did not install electronics).
