Final video of the quick comparison between base/standard exhaust and sports exhaust on a Porsche 911 992 Carrera. EU Car with OPF (Otto Particle Filter). Both exhausts are stock. The base exhaust has had around 10.000km the sports exhaust is new. This might have an effect over time since I heard some experiences which state that the sports exhaust also sounds a bit rougher the more miles it gets on it. So take this comparison with a grain of salt. Environmental temperature and motor temperature have been around 10 degrees in difference (4 degrees celsius vs. 14 degrees celsius).

When driving I notice a few more crackles when downshifting compared to the base exhaust, which also does them. That's a little difference.

In terms of the general myth that the base exhaust is an absolute no go I must say that this isn't true. It's mainly for the look (oval vs. rectangle), the active flap control and a few more crackles so far.

If you're looking for an aftermarket exhaust (which would definitely enhance the sound and volume, but is not allowed in every country and might affect your warranty), maybe getting the different rear bumper insert (black part where the number plate is fixed) and the parts for the oval exhaust trim might be cheaper than getting the sports exhaust.

If you want the physical button for the manual control of the exhaust flap on your dashboard = Sports Exhaust or car coding for getting the button on the control display.

If you might consider quad pipes for an aftermarket or prefer the rectangle pipe look you're safe to order the base exhaust.

Instead of many others, including reviewers, my sales consultant always told me that there's not this big of a difference between the two exhaust systems compared to previous models where the difference between the two stock exhaust systems was a lot more noticeable. The rev limiter also has an effect on it. Only a few reviewers on yYoutube like CarVia where very honest to state that they weren't able to hear a significant difference in sports mode between the two exhaust systems on a base 992 Targa 4 PORSCHE TARGA 4 2020 imTest [992] mit.... You can listen to a few drive by's in this very good review, too.

I'm not able to do any more cold revs because this isn't good for the motor and I can't do da driving comparison since this is the same car. But I can honestly say that sound wise, I have been happy with the base exhaust inside the car. I just prefer the silver chrome look of the sports exhaust compared to the brushed steel of the base exhaust and I got the car at a decent price so fitting the PSE afterwards wasn't this big of a financial problem.

Beware that fitting it afterwards at a Porsche dealer might cost you around 2500€ for the parts and around 1500€ for labour which is definitely more than getting it right if you can order the car new from factory.

I hope this helps with your decision and always question any advice which states that accessory or option XY is a definite must have on a car like this. As a Porsche employee told me: Porsche isn't interested in selling any "shit" car, which also means that you can honestly see every single option as just an option and a personal preference for "your" car.
