Wanted to share this recent posting on 6speedonline’s Forums.  It always makes our day to hear from a happy customer! Not to mention with Video!! Check it out:

“As some of you know, I’ve been searching high and low for a new cat-back exhaust for my 2002 Ferrari 360 Modena. Easily I’ve spent a dozen hours researching the various vendors and listening to YouTube vids (driving my wife absolutely crazy in the process).

The exhaust note is a critical aspect of enjoying my cars. I’ve upgraded exhausts on my prior Porsche GT3, Turbo, and C2S — as well as replaced the entire exhaust system on my C63.

When my 360 arrived I was shocked at how quiet the exhaust note was (unless in WOT, but even then, it didn’t scream). Granted, I’m an exhaust note snob — perhaps I’m in the minority on the stock 360 exhaust doing nothing for me

Here were my exhaust criteria in general order of importance to me:
1) Remote valve control (keeping neighbors from burning down my house, and not having to manually plug/unplug the valves)
2) F1-like sound (high-pitch, screaming tone)
3) Attention-grabbing “bark” sound on startup (that can be toned down with valve control)
4) No drone
5) $3,500 USD or under

My criteria landed me with the Agency Power system. Here is a link with pics and more detailed technical descriptions of what I purchased:

My local Porsche dealer did the install and I picked up the car just the other day. WOW — I’m floored (pun intended) with how this system has exceeded all of my requirements. Here are some of my observations:

* With the valves in closed position (running through the muffler) the volume is just a hair above stock, but with a more pleasing sound. So both at idle and driving at all RPM bands, the cabin sound level (and exterior) keeps the benefits of the quiet stock exhaust.

* With the valves open (by-passing the muffler), the car idles with lovely aggressiveness. At all RPM ranges, she screams and is just the way I imagined a Ferrari sounding. Interestingly the cabin sound level is not much higher than with the valves closed — which was a nice surprise. But with the windows down (and certainly for people outside the car) the sound is truly inspiring.

* The startup “bark” gives me a smile every time. With the stock exhaust, I was almost embarrassed with how, well, limp the startup sound was.

* No drone, at any RPMs. I can talk on my phone with ease for example.

* The price is right — the system sold for under $3,500 USD and my dealer charged me only $495 for the install.

My only regret is living in Pittsburgh where the weather has not cooperated in the least for me to enjoy what I consider to be a transformed car. (Now I tread lightly with that statement because living in Steeler country has its benefits too)!!

I want to thank Rob Rohn at Vivid Racing for helping me through the selection process. From what I understand, he has a 360 on which he’s put many different exhausts, so he was an invaluable resource to me.

Once the weather clears I will post a series of vids as a follow-up within this thread. In the meantime I have 2 vids that will give you only a modest sense as to what this system can do:
