    Seem this is the best of everything. The sound should be identical to S-line when the valve is open, yet you can have the valve closed when you need some quite time. The materials is inconel too! Anyone have any experience with them?

    I dont have any personal experience with Kline but there are many satisfied customers on the porsche forums. I was seriously considering kline for my scud but just ended up going with s-line due to cost. There's a member here that has the kline system on his scud and based on the videos, it sounds just as good as the s-line.

    Hi! I had an inconel full headers/cats/exhaust system on my 991 gts before I sold it to get the gt3.

    I have to say that the performance wasn't actually any better than the stock 991 pse system despite claims to the contrary but on the other hand how many times do we hear this. Every manufacturer is forced to up their "power improvement" figure time after time to "stay with" the competition.

    That the bad news and I'm sure it won't come as much of a surprise and shouldn't put you off. The great news is that the fit and finish of the system was awesome and the sound was just gorgeous.

    Here is a picture. Know it's not Ferrari but it's so nice I'm sure you'll forgive me?

    Finished it off with some cargraphic flame polished tips because the Klien ones were a bit odd in my opinion.

    Would I order a full headers back system in inconel for my 360???

    HELL YES.

    Done he make one? Damn. No.

    On the other hand I think he might offer a solution for the GT3 so... :)

    The pieces are beautiful. Weren't they working on inconel headers for the F430/Scud?

    I'm not sure. Maybe you could call Felix at Klien and ask. Ask him also to make 360 ;-)

    Excellent quality and they represented the noise level correctly-exactly what I asked for. This is on a 997.1 Tt Porsche. Not yet tried on Ferrari but they will be my next Fcar exhaust. I will skip the inconel- SS is just fine.

    Not much web info on the F430 Kline X-Pipe / muffler combo, want to know more, what people are running this with, race or stock CAT's, pre-cat OEM or aftermarket manifolds?

    Just ordered the Kine in SS for my F430. I'll have more info on them in about 3 weeks.
    I'll be running Fabspeed headers & test pipes. I'm planning to dyno then have Mase eng. remap ECUs.

    I am on the fence about this system too. Haven't pulled the trigger yet because there's not enough videos of this on the f430. Would love to see your feedback on it

    I am very pleased with the Kline SS on my r8 v10, sounds very similar to capristo for half the price and the quality is great. The remote valve button is very well designed as well. The sound is very good yet never drone or annoying in anyway, and it's quieter than OEM with the valves closed. Best of both worlds.

    I am also concerned the s line with aftermarket header is way too loud, sometimes I just want to cruise around without too much "look at me in a Ferrari"... a high pitch valved system gives me an option to do that

    Its going to be sick when you are done. It will sound awesome and make a lot more power.

    I couldn't get much info on them except one youtube video that ran them catless. Overall, I decided to pull the trigger on them because of the good rep that Kline has with the Porsche and other car groups. From the pictures that I could fine on Google, the quality of the welds looks great! Kline's other headers and exhaust system looks and sounds pretty impressive!

    I'm planning on running them catless so I expect them to be loud regardless of the valves...but I know that going into it.

    The only thing I'm worried about is the weight. It's probably twice the weight of the S-line exhaust. I hope the replacement of the factory manifold, removing cats, and CF rear diffuser makes up for it. I'll probably replace the engine panels with CF as well.

    I'll be sure to update everyone with pics and dyno of my setup!!!

    Very nice. Looking forward to the write up. How is fitment etc.? Do u also have their sportcat or it's just the exhaust system? They told me it won't sound good with just the exhaust, so they highly recommended the sport cat. Very interested to know what you think of the sound

    Yes! I had to cover my ears AND stand off to the side :)
    I was shocked that it can be that loud with stock muffler, Fabspeed headers and cat delete.

    I am guessing the Kline will raise the pitch to a true F1 scream...looking forward to it.
