996sps Exhaust System Advice

Termignoni, 50mm system from the headers to the carbon sleeved end cans. IMO, you don’t want to go bigger (54mm) because of tuning. Not a difficult job just a bit fiddly for the rear cylinder, maybe 2 hours. Major point to take extra care is if you are removing the original headers, the exhaust studs which can very easily snap if not treated properly. Plenty of penetrating spray left to soak, warm the nut/stud with a hot air gun and apply gentle pressure to undo and take your time. You see systems come up on eBay, condition is of course key but the carbon end cans can be repacked if it’s too noisy. Andy

 

As Andy says I would stick to 50mm, possibly with 54mm cans if they come up. These pipes are good enough for nigh on 150 rwhp.....

 

Full 50mm system is standard original factory fit, so on the advice above you don't need to spend anything unless you decide on a 54mm.

 

titanium if you can find um. but as mentioned the standard system is more than enough.

 

Isnt a 50/54 mix best?

I am sure @nelly has advised on this before.

 

If the bike is stock, 50/50 works a treat. Back in the day, 54 cans would breath a bit more top end but the losses overall weren’t worth the trouble. Bigger headers weren’t worth the trouble unless you gave the motor a good going over and even then it was upper mid/top end that benefitted most

 

What are these ones?
