Hey all!
just started to join this forum today.
and i recently purchased a 718 GTS.
pick up is next month so still havent really driven it
but i am looking into exhausts not change now
but sometime in the future for SURE.
so i was looking between FABSPEED sport or KLINE innovation.
and has anyone tried KLINE or heard anything from it?
thanks!! 0

I might get the KLINE exhaust for my new Cayman S coming this year. Depending if they tweaked the sound enough for MY'19 or not. I'll have to hear the MY'19 Porsche sport exhaust first to decide.

What is your primary criteria for changing out the exhaust if you do? Sound or performance. Check dreaded drone in the 2K-3K range if you opt for a different exahust, Kline or otherwise. In the video, Kline would seem to sound approximately like the PSE which is stock in 2019.

Yes I actually have the PSE included, I mainly want to get an exhaust for sound that is louder and has a crispier tone instead of the fabspeed. Which so far I heard the Kline and thought it’s most ticked for my criteria. But I also think perhaps I should just get a NHP cat bypass first?
Still not sure

As far as it being crisper sounding: I wish Kline's video had more full range of RPM and driving conditions instead of that polished sales-video in which most of the sound in that video is the car going full bore. Full bore is not where many people have a problem with this car, it's all the range before then. Would be better if they had fuller range of sound and conditions in their vid, as does AWE and Fabspeed.



And at roughly $4,000 USD for the cat-back stainless or over $6,000 for the Inconel version (cat-back), that is a dear price to pay when faced with the possibility that it may not be "all that" and you may not like it. (I am facing similar delima over my Fabspeed I recently installed, but fortunately, it did not cost near that much, even being full turbo-back).

What are your thoughts on the Fabspeed Turboback? Seemed liked your first impressions were mixed. I almost went with that. I liked the 36 lb weight reduction but didn’t like that it deleted the exhaust switch functionality.

Edit....just read your response on the other thread...thanks.
