It was a faulty Lambada sensor, changed and the engine light is no more.

Thanks for the information, I'll check code on Monday.  It now has 200 cell sports cats too fabspeed.  Here is a little video of how it sounds.

I've had the Fabspeed exhaust fitted and it's made the engine light come on, any ideas on how to remove or the reason.  Fabspeed say it shouldn't cause CEL.

It was a scam, got the cash back via my credit card company 

Glad you got your money back, I have got my fabspeed supercup exhaust, it's being fitted on Friday, I'll keep you posted.

Well I decided to order the Fabspeed Porsche 986 Boxster Supercup Street Exhaust System with Sport Catalytic Converters and black satin tips from USA, pricey, but excited to get it on.

Keep us updated mate.

I'm tempted but can't help but think it's a scam. Went through the process to buy and the website is co.uk but payment is in US dollars?

Yeah, the address is in South Carolina, not worth the risk. 

Here it is at normal price:-

Anyone know if this is a good exhaust, it's so cheap seems to good to be true:-

Well, I've decided to go for the SW engineering race exhaust 

I've been told the silenced option sounds nice and there race drivers love it, is this likely to turn on the engine management light?.

• 2x Cat pipes (200 cell cats and lambda sensor bosses)
• Rear silencer system with balance pipe (unsilenced option available)
• Removable GT3 style exhaust tips (2.5 inch tips)
• Rear gearbox silencer mount 
• All gaskets and fasteners

With zero silencing other than the cats to attenuate a bit of noise, that would be very very loud!  Would probably fail nearly all UK track day noise limits and even most race day noise limits.  Depends on what you are trying to achieve, noise, or a car that is loud but still pleasant to drive.

You can choose a silenced version from the drop down menu.

Anyone heard anything about these or has one fitted?.

No but the PCGB Thames valley group have been using the same venue although "we" were there first. There are lots of meets that use Blackbushe so no love lost as long as you get to enjoy yourself. BoXa is just a group of people with a common interest at the end of the day. Some are members of TIPEC or PCGB too. 

Thanks, so who should I contact to find out when the blackbushe meet is and if I need to pay a joining fee before going.😄

Who have you sent a message to? The Blackbushe meet like all the local other meets is organised by members here not the venue's. 

Hi it's was pgb the r29 group, is that not the one you were talking about?.

Thanks a lot, I've sent them a message on Instagram.

Recently picked up a 986 Boxster S, just wondered if there are any others in the area. I've fallen in love with it tbh, it's awesome.
