Hopefully it doesn't sell, so you can fling some 993 engine mounts in one afternoon and try again!

I suspect it will take a lot more than that.

That's the dilemma I had though. I could spend a lot of money changing things, still be in the same position and change the raw appeal of the car in the process. I just decided to accept it's not for me and let someone else enjoy it.

I can’t imagine that exhaust helped, must be properly loud !

I have tinnitus too and find the stock exhaust with ssi heat exchangers fine… bit of wind whistling from the door seals doesn’t help but a well,placed cloth solves that :lol:

Shame it hasn't worked out for you. The exhaust is loud for sure though. I still have the original exhaust if you want to put that back on.
