Thanks for the info Fox.
I have dropped them an email asking for Dyno charts for the 968. It could very well be that they assume the 944 exhaust is a good fit for the 968, and we all know that's a bad assumption. What got me thinkng was this write up...
"<i>Requirements of stock low volume street engines are much different from high revving, high horsepower race engines. Road race applications are also much different from off road applications. Supersprint treats each situation individually to produce the best possible part for the intended use.
Custom road racing applications require hand made, thin wall stainless steel tubing to produce the highest and most useful power from the lightest exhaust system. For demanding off road use Supersprint utilizes heavy gauge steel for resistance against rock and gravel impact. Whether for street or race use, Supersprint researches, designs, tests, and builds exhaust systems for real world power and long lasting, quality construction.
Unlike the countless competitors Supersprint has seen come and go, since 1955, Supersprint does it’s homework on the dyno, the street and the track. I have dropped them an email asking for Dyno charts for the 968. It could very well be they they assume the 944 exhaust is a good fit for the 968, and we all know that's a bad assumption.Our extensive knowledge has been earned on thousands of cars around the world.
This knowledge provides Supersprint with the uncanny ability to extract power from engines when other exhaust manufacturers can only produce higher noise levels. Supersprint products are developed around scientific knowledge not assumptions.
Other manufacturers of exhaust systems are happy with larger diameter tubing, restrictive silencer design, increased noise levels and chrome tips to lure customers. But our commitment to performance and quality prevents such an approach. Instead we at Supersprint design and build around each engine’s performance characteristics. Exhaust flow rates and velocity are dramatically increased by Supersprint designs while still retaining factory OEM diameter tubes. We know it is actually easier to loose horsepower through misuse of larger diameter tubing and badly designed silencers.
Each component from header to tailpipe is accurately tuned and suited to each particular engine by Supersprint engineers.
A critical balance between lower back pressure level and flow rate must be ensured for optimum performance. When Supersprint develops a system for a new car, hand built prototypes are made and extensively dyno tested, rebuilt and re-tested.
Combinations of tubes and perforated cores with outside diameter ranging from 32mm (with 2mm. 3mm, and 5mm increments in size) up to 76mm are utilized for best results. Nothing is assumed. Only modifications that create proven performance in mid-range torque, and top end power increases, qualify for final production. There is no make-do engineering at Supersprint.
The quality of a Supersprint exhaust system also includes meeting sound emissions restrictions. All Supersprint street legal systems meet the stringent requirements of TUV testing for quality, design, construction and sound emissions.
Supersprint recommends the use of complete exhaust systems (header, center & rear muffler) to achieve the highest performance gains.</i>"
