If the full system is 9511.00, then that's pretty much 10K to me. I'll slap an overpriced X pipe on mine before I pay $9511.00 (10K) for an exhaust.

My experience with a full akrapovic system on my 992 911 sucked. All it did was make my cold start extremely obnoxious. Probably loudest setup I had ever heard cold start. Yet it wasn't much louder over all. It just made my car have super obnoxious cold start. No thank you.

So maybe I am bias. But I will not be giving Akrapovic my business and especially not at 9511.00 (10K).
Is that the after tax price? Because if not , with California tax rates in Oakland at 10.25% I'd be well over 10,000, closer to $11k
