Wow! That sums it up. From the fit, quality of the materials, the inclusion of all of the parts needed for installation to the bespoke "SCART 911" straps. That was great but the sound, the sound is perfect. I am so glad I bought this for my car (69 911T 2.0 litre)
I ordered my silencer from a forum host and it was received with some shipping damage so I sent it back. I received an email from Martin immediately stating he would get another one to me before I was to leave for Rennsport VI. I got another one and installed it two days before I left on my 6600 mile trip to Monterey and back. I couldn't be happier with the muffler and the personal service from Martin was greatly appreciated. When I arrived at Rennsprt VI I met Martin and we had a quick chat to thank him and I got a new coffee mug too. Fantastic sounding muffler especially in the California canyons just south and west of Half Dome and 5.5K RPM, WOW. A big thanks again to Martin. Read more

My 1969 2.0 is still spell-bound. So am I for that matter! What you have achieved with you super sound sport exhaust my dear Martin is quite simply exceptional. The sound it gives is full, free, crystal clear, with a high note at about 4000 rpm - a bit like an F1 engine - I'm completely hooked, and yet it can hide all that away at cruising speed. No vibration, virtually silent. A sheer delight which should be compulsory on the 63/73 Read more

Easy and quick installation, superb finish. An orgasmic sound at 4000 rpm that literally pierces right through you... A joy on mountain roads!
For several years I had been wondering about replacing the exhaust on my 1970 2.2E, all to give it a bit of sound. For this future exhaust, for me, no alternative other than a Martin SCART product, I have a little experience with his products since I already had them fitted on a 3.2 and on a 993 a few years ago. I met Martin at Paradis Porsche 2017 to discuss the sound, met him again in 2018, again at Paradis, and finally, in September 2019, after a constructive phone conversation with Martin, I ordered online the Super Sound silencer with RIVA sound for my classic. I did the fitting myself in less than an hour, the mounting kit is delivered with the magnificent exhaust and the two stainless steel straps with the name cut out to put in place for a perfect fit. Ignition, and there the sound at idle is clearly more pleasant without being bothersome, a more raspy sound with a nice resonance. Since then, well, I went down to Paradis Porsche 2019, about 600 km of varied roads, national road, motorway, departmental road, village and a pass at 2000 m, in short a nice sample of our roads. Result, I made a mistake, which was waiting so long to fit this exhaust, it knows how to be discreet in villages, or on the contrary present and bewitching in the various passes when the rock wall sends the sound back, it depends only on the engine load and the position of the accelerator pedal. My 2.2E gave me satisfaction and well this degree of pleasure is still on the rise. Ricket, a satisfied customer. Read more

Dear Sir,
Muffler has been installed on the car which performs with super good sound, customer is very delighted.
We will recommend to other customer.
a sound just like the 911 around the time of Chasseuil, Ballot-Lena and other artists ! Guttural and exhilarating !
It's Christmas come early! I've just installed the SCART Riva silencer on my 1978 911 SC... what character!!! It's not the same car anymore!! Driving a classic 911 is already an incredible pleasure, but with this exhaust the pleasure is multiplied!! .. the sound is gravelly, harmonious, while staying, at a steady speed, at the same sound level as the original exhaust. Thank you Mr. SCART, thank you to your teams :-)) Read more

Hello everyone, just a short note to tell you that I've just fitted a Riva Super Sound exhaust, Best seller, and as its name suggests it's really top, a super sound in the revs and at low revs a sound almost like the original. I'm really delighted and I recommend it to everyone, it's really great kit. Congratulations for giving us so much pleasure with our frogs. Read more

I was on the lookout for a new exhaust (the old one had been around for 42 years). I decided to opt for the musicality of a SCART instrument. For my 2.7L 911, with its somewhat subdued voicebox, I chose the Racing front muffler + the Riva muffler combination. A great choice, despite slightly too much volume in neutral. The exhaust fitting at the SCART workshop went smoothly, apart from the bolts on the original front muffler being completely rusted up - hence grinder and carbide drill. Thank you to Martin SCART for his advice and availability and of course for the mechanical and acoustic performance of his exhausts. Read more

I've owned my Porsche 930 since 2001. I bought it for my 50th birthday. 22 years later, it was fitted with a SCART SCA 930 32+ silencer, installed in Goussainville. Well done to Christophe and Christian, who carefully removed my old exhaust. The poor accessibility and the corroded mounting nuts didn't scare them... They did a remarkable job! The test drive with Martin SCART at the wheel was fascinating: already at idle, the sound is magical. After carefully bringing the engine up to temperature, Martin let me discover many different nuances in the exhaust's musicality... The more load the Turbo is under, the more pleasant and powerful the sound gets, without ever being aggressive. On lift-off, the crackles and pops are very pleasant to hear... Pure happiness! This exhaust is a superb success! Well done to the whole SCART team. One piece of advice... Go and see them in Goussainville. Their passion is a joy to see... And it can even be contagious! Read more

Adding a Scart exhaust to your car is almost like changing it! It finally breathes much more freely. For a fun car, it's really the best there is! Thanks also for the fitting, done by an expert and very quickly.
I acquired a 1977 911 2.7L with the "surprisingly" sanitized sound of the original muffler. Knowing the reputation of SCART exhausts and having seen a few videos on the YouTube channel, I was won over by the sound of the RIVA. So I made an appointment directly at the showroom, where I was received by Martin SCART himself. What an incredible welcome! With the workshop opening directly onto the outside, I even had the chance to watch the removal / installation of the complete exhaust. And believe me, it was no easy task to remove the whole rusty system dating from '77! And that is where you recognize the experience of the workshop foreman. Once the car came down from the lift... Turn of the key in front of Martin. And then... METAMORPHOSIS!!!! What a sound! Not to say what a melody! We set off for a road test and the sensations are downright delightful!!! A very mechanical sound at idle (that is where the RIVA name takes on its full meaning), furious in the revs and "relaxed" at steady speed. But that's not all! I would say the most exciting thing is the crackling of the overrun on every deceleration!!! The famous "Pops & Bangs" sound as they say now! In short, nothing but happiness. I do not regret my purchase. Once again, I warmly thank the whole SCART team for their know-how, their level of expertise, and their warm welcome. A video of the result is available on the SCART YouTube channel, and for those who wish, you can follow the car on Instagram: @flat6design Read more

Two years ago I bought a 3.1 911 SC, yes a 3.1, it's not a typo! I loved the car, but not the exhaust even if it was stainless steel. There were two problems with it: 1 - a huge tail pipe, looked like a bottle of Evian 2 - only got a sound out of it once I reached 6538.2 rpm! Which meant that I didn't take it out. There was just no fun in it. I looked around on the internet to see what was on offer and was in no doubt when I opted for the Riva (pre racing and Riva sausage). But to my surprise, without the original front muffler! Hhmm... I had the Riva sausage fitted last week - and what can I say - it feels like a new car. What a sound!!! The sausage has two entry pipes, like a classic 911, and it sounds more like a 2.7 RS! It rips when I put my food down and those backfires when I take my foot off again are just brilliant. Each tunnel gives off a symphony of sound - just makes me want to wrap a scarf around my neck and drive through with the windows down! I M P R E S S I V E!!! An enormous thank you to SCART for having built and fitted such a gem! Read more

When I bought a pre-silencer + RIVA silencer for my 911SC in July 2013, it was to replace the original exhaust. The latter, in steel, having lasted thirty years, I'm a long way from replacing the stainless steel work of art made by Martin Scart! With the RIVA, the car has an exquisite sound, which develops according to the engine's rpm, but which you hardly hear at all at idle, it's great! And that's not all, when the car backfires as you declerate, it's just as enjoyable. Can you believe, Martin has managed to create an exhaust which makes you want to put your foot down, but which you can continue to enjoy even when you take your foot off, what more can you ask for? Having said that I did have a slight problem with the fitting. The sausage was slightly off-center veering towards the right. A centimetre, it was nothing really and you couldn’t see it. I drove with it like this for over a year, on some lovely enjoyable roads, and all was well. Until the day I took the motorway for over five hundred kilometres. There, the fog light began to suffer from the heat! That's right, because of the offset, it was barely two centimeters from the tail-pipe! I called Martin to ask if it would be possible to move the tail-pipe and re-center the silencers: The reply was yes and "come to the workshop" So I went yesterday March 5th. I was there for three hours during which the entire team remade a new entry pipe for the silencers before my very eyes. The process of making the silencers is very rigorous, using templates, it must be my car that is slightly "off-kilter". i can only praise the operation:- a cup of coffee on arrival - a really great team, made up of people with specific skills working together, a real team! - true professionels, they weld with unnerving ease! - a perfect result - the cost of which is all covered. To sum up, the exhausts are superb, and the after-sales service is up to the same standard! Thank you Mr Scart. Read more

Recent owner of a 911 sc, I wanted a hoarser sound with a deep glouglou at low revs for when I drive around on country roads. Completely satisfied with the Riva type SCART exhaust which produces one hell of a sound at low revs and yet when I'm at cruising speed with my wife at my side, no need to raise my voice. It's really changed my car and the pleasure I have in driving it. Read more

Installation this morning ... No traffic ! 8am instead of 9am. Cup of coffee with one of guys. Then Martin Scart arrives : We have several options : it's a 1976 2,7 Targa ... he likes it ! connections : 3.0 or 3.2 ? standard? After 2 seconds thought : We'll go for a made-to-measure ! for MY little porsche ! I spent A half a day of my life in a state of Pure joy : Mr Scart shared all he knew on the subject of Venturi, air fluide exhaust amongst other subjects: I LEARNT ! After a bit of personal work (free Wifi ! ) The result came at half past twelve : We start up the 2.7L Granny. Transformed Granny !!! She's goes from a Porsche growl to a deep growl at low speed (up to 3000 4000) then starts to sing like a Diva (Riva ?) therafter !!!! You should know that no one leaves Goussainville until Mr Scart himself, has taken a little turn in your NEW car ! (Yep ... it's new, reincarnated in a wise and crazy form ! ) It's a huge thrill Mr Martin Scart . Really a huge and marvellous thrill. Any fellow porschist can contact me to verify. Ps: I also have a 1978 3,3 Turbo and everyday I drive a Panamera Diesel .. Porsche... since ... a boy ! And proud of it ! Read more

After around 700kms with a Scart Riva exhaust on my 911, my satisfaction is complete. The sound is just enough at idle, wild when you accelerate and quite calm when cruising. It makes the car far more lively. A pure joy! Thanks once again for the welcome. Xavier T
Owner of a 1986 911 3.2L coupe, I installed the Scart racing pre-silencer upstream of a Profinox Sport stainless steel banana (a brand I allow myself to mention since it no longer exists today). I had not found such a configuration when searching the forums. I have now been driving with this pre-silencer for more than a year, and I had the chance to thank Mr. Scart at Paradis Porsche. The sound has increased noticeably but remains perfectly reasonable, with an exceptional musicality that transforms the 911 and brings it closer to the sound of the old ones. A very good surprise on deceleration between 3000 and 4000 rpm as well, with a captivating racing sound that brings a sensory renewal to the car! A quality sound with finesse. Read more

I received my Scart exhaust today. Christian Dior is the pope of haute couture, Mozart the pope of music, and Martin Scart is the god of exhaust melody. Thank you to you and your super efficient team, and what a melody. A poem, the roar of our Porsche.
My catalyzed 911 3.2 G50 of 88 came out of silence to start a career of Diva of the road! The 2 hours back in the North of France were magical. Thank you to all the SCART team for the warm welcome, all the explanations in RIVA products assembly, the visit of the workshop and the test drive! I recommend.
Easy installation, absolutely sublime cavernous sound, ultra-fast delivery, a very friendly and helpful boss, ordering by phone with no problems.

Thank you to the whole SCART team for the warm welcome, all the explanations about fitting the RIVA products, the tour of the workshop and the road test! I recommend.
After fitting the Scart Riva dual-outlet exhaust, my 911 3.2L is metamorphosed. The engine is livelier and revs up better, and the sound of the flat 6 is magnificent without being intrusive. The finish of the exhaust is superb and I love the look. Congratulations to Scart for this product. Laurent.
As the owner of a US-spec 3.2, and therefore catalyzed, I opted for a non-catalytic pre-silencer and the Riva silencer on the advice of Martin SCART. The car now has a simply magical sound while remaining acceptable.. the finish is splendid and the installation extremely simple. Thank you.
Nothing but happiness!! A year and a half after fitting, I am posting my feedback on the captivating melody of the pre-silencer/silencer combo. At around 3000 rpm, long trips can be done without having your ears buzzing. Beyond that, the quintessence of the whole setup captivates you in a furious melody!... A real joy that I savor while it is still possible. A big thank you to Martin Scart, who was very available when I called and knew how to advise me according to my needs. Read more

Thank you Martin for this lovely meeting and your friendly welcome. I am very satisfied with this beautiful exhaust and its raspy sound. I'm waiting for the sun to take the roof off the Targa and enjoy it. Then the 1987 cab will follow. We'll see each other again. Stéphane
I've just finished fitting my Scart Riva silencer on my 1986 911 3.2 cabriolet. I was looking to get back the typical sound of the flat 6, which is a bit sanitized on the 3.2s. Well, I got what I wanted! A nice raspy sound on start-up and deeper when driving. I'll probably look a bit later at adding a Riva pre-silencer to go even a little further in the search for the perfect sound! By the way, I thank Mr. Martin Scart who remained available to give me some installation advice! Philippe LG Read more

If you own a 911 3.2L, don't hesitate to fit a Riva banana and a pre-silencer with it! You'll discover a new side to your car, just what your old one was missing! The whole team is super nice, very professional, and led by the excellent Mr. Scart who offers you the best choice according to your wishes and expectations.
I've just treated myself to a Scart Riva for my Porsche, received on time and fitted this morning with my brother. No problems, the quality of the stainless steel is top, and at the first turn of the key with the Riva, wow, the sound at idle gives you shivers, first acceleration the second sound is louder, back home 30 kilometres with some big accelerations, pure happiness, no regrets, thanks to Mr Read more

After a classic fitted with a Dansk banana, I had always promised myself that if I had another 911, it would be fitted with a Scart exhaust. After several calls to Martin Scart and his team, thanks again for his patience and his help on a Saturday evening, I took the plunge and ordered a Riva / Riva duo. Despite a rather slow carrier, I want to thank JR from Garage Classic Motoring, who opened his garage on a Saturday afternoon to fit my Riva pre-silencer and banana. And when it came to turning the key it was magical, truly a great sound. It really matched what I wanted. So thank you Martin Scart for this work. What a joy to go and get the bread in the Scartmobile!! Read more

I had a Riva pre-silencer + Riva silencer fitted on a 1988 3.2 G50 Cabriolet, and it is the perfect compromise: a fabulous sound in the revs while remaining discreet at steady speed! The build quality is top-level craftsmanship, and the seriousness of the whole team is there for the installation. In short, you can go in with your eyes closed and leave with your ears wide open. Thanks again Martin! Read more

What a joy to fit a Scart exhaust line on my Porsche, currently a 3.2 Carrera... a captivating, magical sound...... the whole team is friendly, congratulations to you, and on top of that you are giving work to a French company.... cocorico.
Owner of a 1986 3.2L 911 Cab, catalyzed because it came from the US, I didn't hesitate to take the plunge and have a pre-silencer and a Riva exhaust from Martin Scart installed on my "beauty". I should say that I already had a great experience with this brand on my previous car, a Porsche 996 Targa on which I had already installed a Scart Classic. Since then, nothing but happiness with this pure and raspy sound that makes you vibrate with every acceleration. The only downside is when I take my wife out for a drive, as she finds the sound a bit too "manly"!! Not too serious, so for long outings I swapped her for my son or friends who love it! In short, nothing but happiness! I also thank Martin Scart for his advice and welcome. Well, the end of the lockdown is here, the best way to go out while keeping social distance... is to take your car! And drive while listening to the magical sound of your car! Read more

Owner of a 1988 3.2L for a year (a childhood dream), I had been eyeing Scart exhausts for a while, which have a very good reputation. First for my former Boxster 987S Phase 2, voiceless because of DFI, and then for my "Frog", decatted and fitted with a by-pass and a stainless steel silencer of an unknown brand. I was also absolutely set on getting back the original shape of the banana; the opportunity was too good!
After many phone and email contacts with the (very) patient Martin Scart, I chose to change the silencer first (it accounts for 80% of the sound) and to keep my by-pass.
Order placed for a RIVA, the brand's best seller, on 23/10 and delivered on 25/10 to the other end of France, hats off to Scart logistics!
An appointment was made at Castellet Car Motorsport (recommended by Martin) for fitting on 30/10 (too impatient to wait any longer!)
Only 1 hour of work, since the supplied material (fitting kit) is so well made; even the grease is supplied, along with all the mounting accessories. With the car still on the lift, the mechanic, the workshop foreman himself, could not resist any longer starting the engine to see (and above all hear!)
Nothing but happiness; what a sound! Amplified by the inside of the workshop, but what a change; what a thrill!
On the way home, a few brief accelerations and it gives its full sound; people turn around with a smile...
Another planet, as Martin had told me on the phone!
Moreover, it should improve further during a short 500 km "break-in".
The following weekend, road trip in the Verdon with my Club; passing through the gorges, where the exhaust makes a crazy sound... raspy and (very) bearable at idle, furious in the revs. I deliberately did not want a "racing" sound, which would not suit my 3.2 nor my neighborhood... here, I am more than satisfied; it meets my expectations.
In short, I can only recommend Scart and its "made in France" exhausts, a guarantee of quality and sound. Thanks again to Martin for his patience and explanations. One piece of advice: take the plunge without delay; my only regret: not having done it sooner.
Enjoy.

I just had a RIVA pre-silencer and RIVA silencer set fitted by the DA SILVA garage in TRESSES (10 km from Bordeaux) and I'm won over by the careful and flawless build quality, the installation required no adjustment. As for the sound! What can I say... you never tire of it, it's bewitching, diabolical, magnifying the flat 6 without it losing its DNA. Many thanks to Cyrille DELMAS for his listening and professionalism in guiding me in this choice. Read more

As the owner of a 1988, 911 coupé, I had several phone conversations with Cyrille DELMAS at SCART before deciding on a RIVA muffler. The exhaust was deliverd within 24 hours and then fitted. Then the moment of truth ... the engine started up and ... WAHOU, incredible !!! An exhilerating, magical sound and a delight on the road ... it has transformed the car. A big thank you to the SCART team for their advice and professionalism. Read more

GREAT !!!!!! I had read quite a lot, heard / watched videos, .... in short, I made up my mind for my 3.2L: a racing pre-silencer + Riva banana.... and well, NOTHING replaces the sound live, it's really what I was expecting. Contact by phone with Martin Scart, very available, you can already feel someone driven by passion for what he does, quote by email and appointment booked very quickly. It's still fresh since the installation was done only two days ago. Arrived early (8:30), Christophe, the fitter, welcomed me kindly. Within 10 minutes of my arrival, he started the removal, explained things to me, and I could watch and take photos without any problem. Martin Scart arrived a while later, an equally friendly welcome, workshop tour, detailed explanations of the manufacturing process... in short, a "hands-on treatment" of the customer that has become rare today. End of fitting around 10:45, 1st turn of the key !!!!! Wow !!!! Martin gets behind the wheel for a ten-minute drive, it sings, it purrs, it screams, it hisses .... well, with words... it's not easy. Happy experience, I drove 200 km yesterday, with delight... I'm going back this afternoon, I want to hear the new sound of my 'frog' again and again. Thanks to the team !!!!!! Read more

Owner of a 3.2 coupe from 89 and former owner of several American cars with big V8s with performance exhausts, I had no other choice than to choose a racing pre-muffler coupled up with a SCART Riva sausage and intermediate pipe. I take this opportunity to reassure any of you that have hesitations about the racing !! It is really roaringly lovely when accelerating and then in decel you take yourself for a movie star named Steve LOL!!! Rest assured that for normal driving at a steady speed it's discreet and not at all deafening. For the moment I've only done 150 kms and apparantly the sound evolves once you've done over 500 kms, brilliant... Thank you so much Martin my beautiful 3.2 carries the SCART signature and it's a great honour !!! Overtaking alongside a 1m high wall - fantastic... Read more

Following on from my message from December 2015 which followed the one from October 2015!! Once again the Scart service was on top form! After fitting a Racing pre-silencer/ Riva sausage in October 2015 then a change of mind for a Riva pre-silencer/ Riva sausage in December of the same year, here's the latest episode of the "troublemaker" series (by that I mean me!) Although the sound was great, I wasn't entirely satisfied with the all-Riva combination, too gutteral and too deep even when accelerating (please note, this is only my subjective point of vue!), I decided to go back to the Racing/ Riva combination once and for all, I missed the soaring lyricism of this devilish pair when I accelerate! So, a new appointment was made on the 29th of September with Martin's very patient team via an equally kind and patient Guillaume. After a quick cup of coffee, the dismounting could start to replace the Riva pre-silencer with the Racing and there, at a turn of the key, just like the first time, a bewitching sound, a magnificent melody, a hymn to the vintage Porsches, an operatic aria, in sum... a sound sent from heaven!! A blop-blop at low revs, then a groooaaar at half throttle to a grriiiing at high revs and all in a comfortable accoustic environment with the windows up! What joy! In short, I think you've got the point, this time I have definately made the right choice and it's with a happy heart (I know I'm a bit over the top at times, but then it's my "Mediteranean" temperament!) that I write this message to share my experience with this master lute maker (yes that's how I see them)! Once again, thank you to the whole team for their patience, their welcome, their kindness and their know-how; I cannot recommend you high enough. To any sceptics I'd like to point out that I hold no shares in this venerable company! Fair winds (I like the sailing analogy) for you Martin and for the company and I wish you a great success with your American adventure... Read more

As I promised Martin Scart, here is my feedback on the RIVA silencer which was fitted on my 3,2 Turbo Look Factory Cabriolet from 89. When I bought the car at the end of October, the fact that its former owner had installed a stainless steel exhaust with twin tail-pipes bothered me, for me it just didn't look right on this model. Nevertheless, the sound a low revs was pleasant and at full throttle a bit calm... I therefore decide to consult Martin Scart to confirm my choice of a RIVA silencer. The order placed, the exhaust arrived quickly and Martin gave me some helpful tips as I fitted it myself with the help of a friend. All you need is there in the kit, straps, suspension with SCART logo, copper grease etc... Then the crutial moment of turning the key and I say to myself that if, at worst, the sound is not really any different than my stainless steel twin tail-pipe version, I would at least have improved the look of my car... but, by black magic, perhaps, the sound is really different from my twin tail-pipe even at low revs... At full throttle, it's angrier than my old exhaust but Martin did point out that I'd have to wait at least 500kms to have its definitive sound. I reached those 500kms yesterday during a friendly FLAT6 PAYS D'AZUR day-out, an increasing delight. The sound is even better still. Unfortunately, rain prevented me from putting the top down but that sound going through a tunnel with the window down, ecstasy... Here is the feedback from someone who already had a replacement stainless steel exhaust and who has no regrets about his investment. Thank you Martin Scart for your time spent on the telephone and for your advice, a rare thing these days, in any field. Keep on as you are Martin, don't change a thing... Read more

Following my message on 16 10 2015... After running-in my Scart racing pre-sil + Riva sausage with an extraordinary sound, I was seized by the desire to try the Riva pre-sil+ Riva sausage, so I rang Mr Scart and Guillaume! I was greeted just as warmly as the last time and we fixed an appointment. When I arrived it was time for a coffee and welcome advice from the team (alway just as professional, and unswervingly kind). Having discussed the well thought out reasons for my choice, the operation began and within a few minutes the racing pre-sil was replaced with the Riva by Christophe always professional, pleasant and full of good advice. As the key is turned there, THE sound, just as spellbinding, more guttural at low revs, not as sharp at full throttle and effectively more "politically correct" at mid-throttle and cruising! I close my eyes, and I'm there on Lake Como aboard a magnificent Riva Super Aquarama, a glass of champagne in my hand, a James Bond girl beside me... amazing! Ooops, sorry darling, just kidding! So, all weighed up, although the combination Racing pre-sil+Riva sausage is magical, I'm sticking to the combi Riva pre-sil+Riva sausage (but I don't know why, I think there's more to come!) To sum up, I can't recommend the Scart Team highly enough to those who are looking for a different sound, quality product, an abundance of advice, plenty of patience and above all an extraordinary customer service, to say the least! And no I have no capital interest in the business! Thanks again to all the Team and.. see you soon - who knows! Gilles, a happy customer in a Porsche 911 3,2 carrera from 84 with a Scart at the end!

Good morning Guillaume, I have already installed the exhaust and pre-silencer. I want to tell you that it has exceeded my expectations, and I am very happy with it. The sound is beautiful at low, medium and high revs. Although at high revs it is wonderful and sublime for a racing car. I was looking for a Rally sound and I got it. I want to congratulate your company because it has achieved a wonderful racing sound for Porsche, I know no other exhaust like it. It is very possible that you will now receive some orders from the Canary Islands for other cars. Regards and thanks Read more

After really warm phone conversations, first with Guillaume and then Martin, to find out which exhaust would suit my 1984 Carrera 3.2 best, an appointment was made for Thursday 8 October 2015. On site, on Martin's advice given the displacement of my 911, and after a tour of the workshop, an introduction to the team and answers to all my questions, with incredible professionalism, I decided on a racing pre-silencer and Riva banana setup. It was done on the morning of 14 October, so a really minimal waiting time. On arrival, I was welcomed by Martin and Guillaume, a little coffee with the whole team, and off we went. I should say that the whole operation was carried out in my presence, that taking photos and videos did not bother the team in the slightest, and that they all kindly played along. Finally the moment of truth arrived and then... Rooooooarf... what can I say, auditory ecstasy, a revelation of the senses. What Martin Scart says about the Riva is true, absolutely true! The car is transfigured, metamorphosed! Quite simply, I arrived with a 3.2 Carrera and I'm leaving with a... 3.2 Carrera 1.0! At start-up you truly get the feeling of a Riva boat on Lake Como, it gurgles, with really present lows and bass. As the revs climb I lower the window and it snarls, it roars, a panther is crouching behind my back, quick, I must warn the Vincennes zoo! Yet when I raise the window again, everything goes back to how it was, or almost! What, have I been lied to, is Martin Scart actually a genius of bluff?! To be sure, I lower the window again as I go through a tunnel and once more, fireworks! And I won't even dwell on the sucking, intake-like sound of twin Webers on deceleration, with the little pops that go with it! Impossible, I tell myself! So I go back to a steady 110, 120 with the window up, and again, relative silence! So what can I say, Monsieur Martin, except that I take my hat off to you, bow to you and proclaim loud and clear that you are a genius, the champion of exhausts, the Beethoven of the pre-silencer! Quite simply, you have put a marine Riva within reach of my wallet and for that I can never thank you enough! My sincerest thanks also go to the whole Scart team, for their professionalism, generosity and kindness! Special dedication to Guillaume. And for those who are still hesitating, go for it, you won't regret it! Gilles, a captivated music lover. Read more

Yesterday, appointment at SCART Exhausts for my 1985 3.2, THE Porsche exhaust reference for me. Original line replaced with a Scart racing pre-silencer + Scart Riva banana silencer, all stainless steel. What can I say? A crazy sound, turning the key at start-up sends you somewhere else. At start-up a raspy, low, powerful sound with a boat-like gurgle. As the revs climb, it howls, it snarls, it blows your mind, as if a tiger had taken over the rear of the car, and yet at a steady 110, 120 km/h in the cabin everything is almost the same as before. I had to lower the window to be sure the Scart system was really there! And it is! Going through the little tunnels on the périph, rooooarhaaaa, what a sound! And on deceleration, that sort of sucked-in sound (I can't find another image) with little crackles like a 2.7 RS, sublime! In short, magical. Thanks again to Martin Scart and his great team. Pure happiness! Now I just have to swallow up the tunnels. :) Read more

A huge thank you to Guillaume for his good advice in the choice of the combination...The Riva silencer associated with the racing pre-silencer which completely transforms my 3.2L. It'ss if I've changed cars and environment. the exhaust was fitted by the garage RABATEL in Lyon and was just perfect in terms of quality and timing. And not least a big THANK YOU to Mr Martin SCART for having created this incredible and unlikely melody which makes the mountains and tunnels of the whole of Savoie tremble. Finally, thanks to my friends who know who they are and what I mean notably JEJE, JUJU and the Wednesday team at the Saint Jo'pour. In an nutshell, SCART - oh happiness!!! Read more

For several months I've been looking for Martin Scart's website in order to sign his visitor's book, as I'm not that bright, it's taken me a while to find it! Now it's done! Now I'm here I'm both pleased and enthusiastic to share my pride and satisfaction. First off, my satisfaction which is fully-fledged, really, the sound of the all-Riva on my 3,2 is a killer! I love it! It's been two years during which I had to lower the windows first if I wanted to hear the car start-up! Then, my pride, as I can boast (and Martin confirmed the fact last autumn) to be the first to be equipped with the definitive version of the "silencer + pre-silencer" set... I apologise Martin, for having waited so long before posting my feedback and thank you (and well done) for having created such a beautiful instrument. I look forward to our paths crossing again sometime soon... Richard Read more

Claude - Avignon 84 - Porsche 911.3.2 - 1986 My story begins as follows, on the 12th of October 2014, I went along to the "Paradis Porsche St Tropez" with a friend in a 996. I was standing in front of the entrance when I heard a 3.2 arrive with a very particular sound, I hurried over to take a look under the car. The person said, can I help you? I replied what is that? where? how? how much? The person replied that I should contact Martin Scart, which I did immediately. A very pleasant exchange, agreeable and all the rest. After which, I turned up at St Raphael to buy and collect the famous exhaust on Friday 30th of January. The Saturday morning it was fitted and immediately put to the test, impressive, incredible sheer pleasure (a kid). M. Scart called me on the Monday, as a good professional should to find out how I got on, I only had praise for him. So I drove all of Saturday and Sunday, I gave a demo for my fellow Porsche friends who were surprised and enthusiastic. I think the "Pont d'Avignon" will end up by giving way the number of times I've driven over it, and finally in conclusion well done and thanks again to Martin Scart and his team for their welcome and their professionalism. Gentlemen Porschists don't hesitate you'll get a good return on your investment and the result ... what a car !!! Read more

A fan of air-cooled Porsche 911s for over 35 years and a great mechanics maniac, after a complete rebuild of the 1988 3.2 L engine, the right choice for the exhaust was Martin Scart, as I wanted to keep the original exhaust line (heating). What a pleasant surprise at start-up, what music, I found the same sound as the 2.7 RS from when I was younger!! I won't even mention the quality of the work and the efficiency: Exceptional!!! Truly, Monsieur Scart... hats off!!! An address to recommend without reservation Jean Jacques Read more

My story began by the mounting of a sport silencer and pre-silencer on Martin's advice of course !! that was in 2012 ....but I dreamt of an exhaust with valves and Martin said he'd think about it... I had faith in him. And then on the 25/10/2013, I had an appointment with him for an installation which was carried out in perfect conditions. We went out for a road test and there ... the moment I pressed the button on the magical remote control, there was a sound that tears through the night or the day (no exageration) Thank you Martin for having created it.. an exceptional success. Bravo !! Read more

Owner of a Porsche 3.2 Carrera which I modify to have a "streetable racecar", I was looking for a sound which reminded me of the old Porsche 911 racing cars. Thanks to Martin, who's very attentive and who will greet you in a way few businessmen know how these days, the results are way and above my wildest dreams! The Riva+racing pre-silencer combination brings back that racing car sound as the speed builds up, and yet remains discrete when cruising on a long journey. When idling the sound is deep, and magnifies the flat-six's "glouglou", and indeed makes you think of the Riva. It all works in harmony, and, of course, with no vibrations! A work of art... Read more

I'm fortunate in owning several Porsches and just like the others, my 3.2 was no exception. Equipped with a Riva silencer and a racing pre-silencer, the engine is transformed; the engine builds up speed unencumbered, the exhaust gives a powerful sound varying from deep base notes to much higher tones at high speed. Once again it's magical. Read more

Mr Scart, Following my order and the installation last week of a Riva silencer + Riva pre-silencer on my car / Porsche 911 - 3.2 Speedster. Several months ago I had decided (after lengthy consideration) upon your exhaust thinking that the description you gave for its origin would conjure up pictures of those marvelous Riva boats which cross the Venetian lagoon (at least that's how I imagined it). You also pointed out, during a telephone conversation before sending on the said exhaust, that both of us have our businesses at "rue Gustave Eiffel". This anecdote seemed all the more amusing to you due to the fact that you describe youself as a metalworker, and its on this point that I'd like to differ. Allow me to point out that metalworker is clearly not the most appropriate term to describe what you do, musician, artist or magician would be a more accurate description of your work. I had ordered a silencer, not at all, as what I received was the most beautiful of all musical insturments I had hoped for the sound of the Rivas, it was almost that buta version with a "sound from the other side of the tomb" Quite simply incredible, from idle with that throaty "glouglou" to full throttle where to go from a cavernous sound to a bestial scream, all of which, thankfully, is punctuated by a virtual silence at cruising speed. From the mechanics at the official Porsche dealer in Nantes to friends (some of which are racing drivers or ex drivers in the carrera cup) the infatuation was unanimous, I who had simply ordered an exhaust, ended up with a work of art. Please accept my most sincere thanks for your advice and my deep felt admiration for your work. Read more

Hello everyone. 6 years ago I bought this 3L2 1986. It has undergone a huge overhaul (by Porsche) which took 4 years, and in order for it to meet all my expectations, I finished the job by fitting a pre-silencer and RIVA silencers last year. The excellent sound at idling speed (the glouglou of the Italian canal boats), with a roar at full throttle and a controlled sound level at cruising speed have multiplied the driving pleasure. I'm about to start the overhaul of a 993, no doubt I won't be waiting for the job to be finished before fitting the RIVA for 993!!!! Read more

Owner of a 911 cabriolet 1989 (but the G series), initially catalysed then decatalysed (with a stainless steel pre-expansion dansk, great gearbox and direct air-feed), I wanted to have a pure Porsche sound. Here is where I say WELL DONE Mr SCART, because after two telephone conversations, having discribed what I was hoping for : not the riva, each to their own, but deep, velvety at low revs, full and weighty and then hoarse and metallic and dramatic at high revs, all within an acceptable volume given that its a cabriolet that I use everyday... He did it, he got it right first time ! The model chosen : the Inox Sport double expansion, which miraculously works marvoulously with the pre-expansion dansk, and has transformed the car, in the best sense of the term, virtually impossible really when you think how hard it is to discribe the sound you want, without going to a sound engineer and spending hundreds of hours trying out sounds in an acoustic centre, etc... Well, Mr Scart, he can do it !!! Thank you and long live the flat 6. Read more

I've just fitted my 'frog' with a sport catalytic converter and a Riva silencer. The sound is simply a delight, I don't recognize my car, and on top of that it has more torque, it seems finally set free... Thank you to the whole team for your professionalism and your listening, and for fitting the whole thing. What a pleasure to meet enthusiasts. Read more

I had the exhaust changed on my 964, which is over 30 years old and has 2,800,000 km, at the end of January at Scart. I found a team of enthusiasts who take their time to explain what makes a nice sound without choking the engine. Martin guides you through the different possibilities. After the choice and the manufacturing lead time, during fitting we had a surprise: the downpipe elbow that was fitted to the car already came from Scart. I chose a RIVA silencer: the sound is rounder, more bearable on long trips, nicer for the neighbors on early-morning departures, and as furious as it should be in the revs. In short, I am delighted, and I have only one piece of advice: don't hesitate. Thanks to your team. Romuald Read more

Hello everyone,
I was looking for a high-performance exhaust capable of staying under the 100 dB required at track days! My 964 is a 3.6L with Cup 993 camshafts, hot-film intake, original headers + bypass and a remap. The whole thing measures 95 dB when hot at 3500 rpm on the sound meter with the bypass and the Riva!
And with a super aggressive sound, typical of a Cup engine at the top and round at the bottom, without being too present in the cabin on the road!
And a very special mention for the availability and kindness of Mr. SCART!
ALL GOOD, BRAVO! Read moreHello everyone,

Hello, my 2nd experience with Martin Scart and once again total satisfaction. This time it was for a 964 Cabriolet, which was lacking a bit of sound to my taste. After a perfect welcome and some discussion, the decision was made to go for a Sport Riva silencer. Once it was fitted, we went for a test drive with Martin. The sound was very good, a lovely melody, but for me it lacked a bit of volume to be perfect. No problem, the solution exists by adding a Riva 100cc catalytic converter. This possibility had been mentioned and recommended on the website, but Martin doesn't push you to spend more, so the idea was to try the silencer alone first. So back to the workshop for this addition. And there, the result is simply perfect, a magnificent, bewitching sound that totally sublimates the Flat 6 while staying reasonable at a steady speed. Well, the bill went up... but it is really worth it! Everything is made almost before your eyes, by hand, with beautiful stainless steel and magnificent welds. And as they say, quality remains and the price is forgotten... Thank you to Martin and his whole team, for the discussions and for a perfect result. Since then, every start-up of the Flat 6 is enchanting! All the best to everyone. Read more

Martin, I wanted to thank you for the welcome and the quality of your advice in making us "live" our Flat6s. What a difference between an original exhaust and a SCART! Thanks to your know-how, your exhausts strike the right and beautiful balance of a Porsche and bewitch with their deep sound. Every acceleration becomes a real recital. Thank you Martin for sharing your passion with us. Bruno Read more

Hello, Unsatisfied with the exhaust on my 964 carrera 4, I initially chose to fit a cup pipe. I liked the sound this combination gave, steady at cruising and a roar at acceleration but not for long. Strong vibrations could be felt both outside and inside the car, which became unbearable, I drive long distances with this car. Having studied the question, it was out of the question to refit an original exhaust, too expensive and I wanted a change. I turned to Martin Scart who, with his natural generosity, explained the why and how several times as I had trouble deciding. I wanted sound but not noise, power but not too much. The choice; a 100 cell catalyser + a reduced sound version of the system cup, to replace all the rest. It was fitted my matchingnumber in Cannes. The result; an engine that runs better, no void when re-accelerating, improved fluidity, an engine that breathes better and that, you can tell straight away as well as the gain in weight. As for the sound, for me, it's perfect, a nice purring when idling, power on acceleration and a very bearable sound at cruising once you've joined the motorway. In short, all's well that ends well, thanks to Martin Scart and your director for your skill and your patience. Read more

Hi, I've been driving with a Scart exhaust for 4 years now, it's just great, the sound, the resiliance, ..and Martin always available. look and listen: goto Youtube, gil964 Porsche 964 RSR Répliqua
My 993's exhaust was well worn out, so a replacement was needed. A SCART model was the obvious choice for me. After talking with Martin SCART, we settled on valved silencers (with remote control). Installation done in the SCART workshop: perfect result, and the catalytic converter mounting was brought back into compliance. This valved system matches my expectations perfectly. The sound with the valves open is magical. Thank you to the whole SCART team. Read more

Not only is the sound captivating, but the quality is also a strong point!! New owner of a '94 993 C2, fitted by the previous owner almost 20 years ago with sport silencers and a 100-cell catalytic converter, I can only advise you to give in to temptation, you won't regret it!
Hello, Happy owner of a 1995 993 Carrera 4, I decided to change the original exhaust to replace it with the valved model from Scart. What a good idea!!! The sound is just magical, the car is almost transformed! The attention to detail of Martin and his colleagues borders on frenzy, but the result is beautiful and of impeccable quality, both in the materials and in the way it is fitted to the vehicle. Thank you Martin for your advice, your availability, your kindness and above all your professionalism! One thing is certain, if you are considering changing your exhaust, go to SCART, you won't be disappointed! Bruno Read more

Owner of a magnificent 1996 993 Carrera 4S. Adding the SCART exhaust kit has transcended my car.
It purrs wonderfully. Thank you to the whole team for these products.
Thank you Martin for the advice, the product, the quality and the SOUND, it's just magical and captivating, my 993 is transformed. The RIVA silencers are simply top. Don't hesitate for a single second, I recommend SCART.
It has now been 4 months since I had the "RIVA" silencer fitted on my 4S, along with the catalytic converter. I'm not disappointed, especially as it matches what I was looking for: a deep, raspy sound at low revs and an idle that leaves nobody indifferent, "bewitching" as my expert put it during his insurance assessment. The RIVA model lives up to its name. The rise in revs is more linear; before, like many of its sisters, I had the impression of a two-stage rise in revs, and that feeling has almost disappeared. On the motorway I feel no discomfort. One small downside: at low revs or under the engine's torque, it acts a bit like a resonance box inside the cabin. On the other hand, as the revs climb the sound is at its most furious, no doubt about it, you're in a Porsche, you'd almost think you were aboard an RSR, no less!! One last word: thank you to the team at Martin SCART for their welcome and kindness and above all for their competence Read more

I own a 993 Targa. The exhaust needed changing, after having contacted Martin SCART and listened to his advice on the different versions on offer, I decided to fit the "super sound SCA 993 3 2". The sound of the original was already excellent, but this, what a mechanical symphony...I fitted the exhaust a year ago, and each time I take the car out it's the same pleasure to the ear? My thanks once again to Martin SCART and his team for their welcome, their kindness and their great professionalism. Read more

Well done to Martin who having given a sound to my ex 3L2 this time set about the job for my Porsche 993. I chose the version with valves which enables me to make a great sound on the country roads and should I so desire, have a more comfortable sound for those long motorway drives. It's a pleasure to hear Martin's good advice, an enthusiastic expert always ready to listen to his customers and offer the best solution adapted to their needs. To be consumed without moderation, it's an excellent remedy for the moral. Read more

Hello everyone. Just to introduce myself : Bruno, 59 years old, a Porsche man through and through, owner for the last 8 years of a 993 4S, optimised, specific exhaust. It was 5 years ago when I first called Martin SCART to replace my original silencers by his handmade silencers. Once they were installed the magic began to work both on the sound and the performance. I recently entrusted him to fit a 100 Cell Sport Catalyser which has given me more torque and power ( +20 NM and + 15 HP ) and obviously the pleasure that comes with it. Therefore I can only sing the praises of Martin SCART who for me is more than an Exhaust Musician. This enthusiast who is immensely kind, extremely accessible and whose skills are unanimously recognised should also be considered as a Conductor in that he has succeeded in associating Music and Performance in his instruments. In this jungle where competition is ferocious, I can't allow myself to give anyone advice, but just to let you know that if you "sign up" with RS TUBE, you won't be disappointed as in Martin SCART you will find a REAL PROFESSIONAL who will guide you through the process. A standing ovation for the Artist and Godspeed to all PORSCHE drivers. Regards. Bruno LACHAUD. Read more
Hello everyone. Just to introduce myself : Bruno, 59 years old, a Porsche man through and through, owner for the last 8 years of a 993 4S, optimised, specific exhaust. It was 5 years ago when I first called Martin SCART to replace my original silencers by his handmade silencers. Once they were installed the magic began to work both on the sound and the performance. I recently entrusted him to fit a 100 Cell Sport Catalyser which has given me more torque and power ( +20 NM and + 15 HP ) and obviously the pleasure that comes with it. Therefore I can only sing the praises of Martin SCART who for me is more than an Exhaust Musician. This enthusiast who is immensely kind, extremely accessible and whose skills are unanimously recognised should also be considered as a Conductor in that he has succeeded in associating Music and Performance in his instruments. In this jungle where competition is ferocious, I can't allow myself to give anyone advice, but just to let you know that if you "sign up" with RS TUBE, you won't be disappointed as in Martin SCART you will find a REAL PROFESSIONAL who will guide you through the process. A standing ovation for the Artist and Godspeed to all PORSCHE drivers. Regards. Bruno LACHAUD.
I just want to thank the one-of-a-kind and passionate Mr. Scart and his whole team, to whom I entrusted the keys of my car to fit it with a pair of ULTIMA RECITAL silencers. I pay tribute to them because the welcome, Mr. Scart's advice, the tour of his workshops, the know-how of his technicians, the test drive alongside Mr. Scart after the installation: all of it was an exceptional experience. It has become so rare to be looked after like this. I'm rediscovering my car and I'm over the moon. A big thank you for this great moment of sharing. A worthy representative of French know-how and made in France, which are fully showcased. Long live SCART Read more

Fitted a valved exhaust with PSE switch control on my 96 3.4L Cab Tiptronic + BMC sport air filter. At the first turn of the key you step into another world: with the valves closed it's already a different drive with a deep yet muted sound, but as soon as you open the valves it's a wonderfully furious melody that just wants to express itself in a crescendo as you climb through the revs. It's simply addictive, I no longer want to stop driving! Special mention to Martin Scart for his listening and the quality of his advice, to his fitter Christophe for his professionalism and kindness, and to the whole team for their welcome. A place for enthusiasts! Read more

Bravo to the whole team!! I picked up my 996 3.4L yesterday after the silencers were replaced with Ultima Recital ones, and the melody is indescribable, pure happiness! I thank Martin Scart for taking the time to call me to advise me and reassure me in my choice. I can only recommend this company for its know-how and seriousness. Porsche friends, don't go looking elsewhere! Read more

Owner of a 996 4S cabriolet fitted with the standard exhaust, hence voiceless, I wanted to give life back to the flat6. With the desire to rediscover the sounds of air-cooled engines. Not easy... on Martin's advice I opted for an Ultima Recital. Easy fitting, despite the corrosion, and from the very first turns of the wheels, I knew I had made the right choice. I wanted a melody without necessarily flirting with the red zone... and that's a win. In the spirit of convertibles, when driving smoothly and from the lowest revs, the sound becomes deep, raspy, cavernous to perfection... enveloping! It also crackles when you lift off the pedal, and the characteristic metallic sound is magnified... A delight, a real beautiful music that turns into a roar with every hard press of the throttle. The harmonics change tone and are just as thrilling. More sporty, though. So I enjoy driving with a light foot but a joyful air. It is now a great pleasure that justifies the investment. Go for it!!

Valved exhaust fitted on a 996 C4. It is absolutely fantastic. A SCART team of enthusiasts, all super nice... (I arrived very early this morning...). It is really a pleasure to see a 100% French company like Martin SCART's with such know-how!!! Fitting time: Impeccable. Done within the day! Welcome: Terribly friendly. Professionalism: Worthy of SCART's reputation. Price: Well... it's worth the price! Result: What a melody... but what a melody! Just incredible! I recommend 200%! Read more

At the beginning of December 2021 I bought a pair of Scart Ultima Recital silencers + a BMC sport air filter, benefiting from the 15% Black Friday discount offered by Scart on their site. In total, a discount of 351 euros including tax, which is not negligible. Living in Montpellier, I decided to have them installed this week by the garage that looks after my vehicle, Porsche ALMERAS, whom I salute in passing for their passion, their professionalism and their flawless customer relations. They did an excellent fitting job because my 2003 996 4S Tiptronic has found its baritone voice that Porsche Stuttgart had denied it... it truly breathes at last and seems grateful to me for having given life back to its 320 completely voiceless horsepower. It is a real delight to hear it let out a real lion's cry, raspy and powerful, on waking, and then to hear its deep octave climbs after the first turns of the wheels is sublime! The sound is particularly deep and raspy on the Tiptronic version and therefore perhaps less angry than on a manual gearbox and/or on an engine of smaller displacement (996 3.4L). So it depends on what you are looking for, for my part it was deep sounds faithful to the flat 6 but also discretion when coming back into my neighborhood. So thank you to Scart Exhaust for creating exhausts of such quality and beauty, in my opinion they are far above what the competition can offer, having done multiple searches and watched dozens of videos on the subject. I won't listen to Nostalgie FM much anymore, but rather radio recital flat 6, all windows open even in winter. It's a fine investment that you won't regret, go for it! Read more

I recently installed a pair of Ultima Recital silencers as well as Scart 200-cell catalytic converters, Scart of course, and the result is beyond my expectations. The sound is magical, raspy and angry and far beyond what I had been able to hear. It is very difficult to reproduce the reality of the sound in audio, but believe me it's worth the trip. On the intake, a BMC cartridge filter and relocation of the resonator. Today I am ordering the Scart stainless steel sport manifold, again to go all the way. I did the fittings myself and everything fits together perfectly. For those who are hesitating... don't turn your back on happiness any longer... go for it... you won't regret it!! Read more

A unique experience! It started a month ago when I was planning the purchase of a 996 40th Anniversary model which, despite all its options, did not have the sport exhaust. So I called the company and discussed my needs with Martin, and we confirmed the order of a valved exhaust with the original switch on the center console. I live in Marseille and wanted to have it installed in the workshop to make the most of the experience and be at the heart of the making. So I arranged this remotely and came the day after buying my car, which I picked up in Reims. So I drove 200 km with the original exhaust, with its soft and melodious sound and the excitement of the next day. On my arrival Christophe, the technician specialized in fitting, welcomed me and explained the upcoming operations in detail. While waiting, I visited the manufacturing workshop, guided by Martin, who brings to life every precision machine needed to make all the parts. Passion and good humor are perceptible in every person at this human-scale company. The additional advice and the good organization allowed me to add a BMC air filter and replace a dead license plate light. The long-awaited moment arrives and, unsurprisingly, I listen to this sound with a satisfaction that matches my wishes. Bonuses offered: polishing of the original tips, a Porsche plate machined with a precision laser, and a bottle of champagne to celebrate. After 800 km on the way home: the sound is incredible without being deafening, and even moderate at steady revs. Thank you to Martin and Christophe for your professionalism. Read more

There it is, done! Break and fitting today at Scart of an Ultima Recital for 996. I had taken my day off to have my Christmas present fitted directly in Goussainville. I didn't think I'd buy them so soon after the recent acquisition of my "frog", but since I was sure I would do it sooner or later, I took advantage of the 15% Black Friday discount and Mr. Scart's good advice. Indeed, I had set out for a valved exhaust, but he explained to me that given my goals and my car (manual gearbox), Ultima Recital silencers could suit (significant and deep sound when turning the key; very discreet sound at a steady speed and very playful sound under acceleration). It's all to his credit because it makes a difference of about 1000 euros (fitting included) in my favor, which is not negligible, not to mention a fitting time of 2 h versus a full day. In addition, he explained to me that I had 3 months to test them and come back for valves if it didn't suit me... that he would take them back and I would only have to pay the difference. Royal... and I'm taking no risk! Sold! So I arrived before the lunch break, as agreed, to let the exhaust cool down. Mr. Scart welcomed me right away and gave me a tour of his workshop, explaining the different stages of making his parts. It had been a long time since I had set foot in that kind of workshop, the smells and the machines brought back old memories.... Nice! Everything is made on site and each technician makes the exhausts from A to Z (even if it comes at a certain price, it's nice to buy French!). Mine were ready, all shiny! I was able to settle in the "warm-room" while waiting for the work and I took the opportunity to read old articles about Martin Scart, just to soak up the character ;) and to see... and touch many parts: valved systems, tips, silencers, internal views of catalytic converters.... Cool, being more of an electrician than a mechanic, I learned things! As planned, the car was almost ready at 2:30 pm: the fitter came to get me to ask what I thought of the tip adjustments and we adjusted their positions together. He even polished them (on the house) and they look new again. Very kind, by the way... and meticulous, everything I like in this kind of job. And then, the long-awaited magic moment... the 1st turn of the key...... And there you think, that changes everything!!! We went to test them by going around the block, with Mr. Scart at the wheel, and there you think wow, it really delivers! Doc Jekyll and Mr Hyde ;) and that's what I was looking for: well-behaved at a steady speed and wicked under acceleration... well thought out Mr. Scart! Back at the workshop, a new test, stationary at a steady speed and then accelerating up to 5000 rpm, and there, thanks to the rise in temperature, the sound is already louder. According to the designer, a break-in period of 500 km is needed for them to give their final sound.... What is that going to be like. Anyway, I left at 3 pm, once again as planned, with a grin on my face, ears wide open and a nervous right foot: the sound is definitely present but not too much, and you finally hear it even with the windows closed. The only hitch of the day, the traffic jams of the moment......... almost 2h30 of traffic jams, with above all the frustration of dragging along in 1st/2nd and not hearing enough of the flat6's new roars. Never mind, that will be for later, anyway with radio recital the traffic jams are shorter! In conclusion, as I've often read, it's no longer the same car: before I had a mellow GT (I forgot to say it's a 3.6 C4), now I feel like I have a race car! Thank you to Martin Scart for his welcome, his kindness and his professionalism!
PS1: That was the day after the fitting, the next morning I couldn't resist the urge to hear it before going to work....... believe me, it warms the heart for the whole day ;)
PS2: Today after more than a month of use on all types of roads, in all conditions and with or without kids in the back, I'm keeping the Ultima because it suits me perfectly!

What a great experience and what a great day. Christophe (the mechanic at work) and Martin gave my Flat6, a bit discreet on my 996 4S, its voice back. I chose the Ultima Recital with a BMC Sport air filter. I am rediscovering my car and its engine, and I had a crazy amount of fun on the way back through the various tunnels... The welcome and the explanations are top: real professionals who like to exchange about their (our) shared passion. I was guided from start to finish with all the right explanations + a test drive with the conductor (Martin) to validate the installation. Bravo to the team! As an anecdote, I came with my 71-year-old father: we listened to music on the way there. On the way back, we listened to the song of the Flat6. Thank you to the sound engineer (Martin) and his team. I now feel like I am "really" driving a Porsche, with a raspy and classy Flat! Bravo (I wasn't necessarily convinced at the start). Laurent Read more

After hesitating for a while I ordered a valved exhaust for my 996 Carrera 4. It was fitted by my favorite garage 10 days ago. The most eager to get it back was in the end my 6-year-old son, who would have had me arrive at 7 a.m. if it had been possible. Anyway, we picked up the car and there I felt like I had another Porsche; it sings, it barks, it growls, what a pleasure for the ears. So I spend my time with the window down to enjoy it better, with my son missing nothing and wearing a permanent blissful smile (the father too...). Thanks to Mr. Scart for his advice and the speed of shipping the parcel. Happy driving to all. Read more

I found my 996 4S Tiptronic great, but it was missing a little something! No problem, a visit to the workshop for the fitting of two valved pieces of craftsmanship (original Porsche button) and the magic happens! To fully appreciate the concert, a few hundred kilometers and it is a real recital on every acceleration! The professionalism is truly at the same level in both the design and the fitting! I am 100% satisfied. A big thank you to Martin Scart and his teams! Christian.A PS: I always drive with the valves open! Read more

After installing a pair of Ultima Recital silencers, it is a real joy on every acceleration to hear this furious melody!!! Delivery was made 72 hours after the first contact, and this in the middle of August. Contacts for fitting advice were always handled with great responsiveness. Congratulations to the whole team and a big thank you to Martin Scart. Read more

Martin, following our meeting at the Porsche Colors in Honfleur. As promised, a short follow-up after nearly 6 years of using my 996 4S with the Ultima Recital. Well, it's quite simple: quality-wise, nothing to report, they haven't aged a day. As for the melody, it's a recital as soon as I press the right pedal. Not deafening, nor any resonance at steady speed. But since when is good music deafening? In short, I'm a happy man and very satisfied with this purchase. Thanks again for your kindness and availability. Eric Read more

A 996 Carrera 4S deserves special care. As I'm the one that takes care of her, I changed the spark plugs and the coils and then, as my Christmas present to myself, I opted for the luxury of an Ultima Recital exhaust. There was no choice in the matter, it had to be a SCART (French and quality). I took it out for a test drive. The sound is surprising, it sounds like a real sports car. Now you know! Read more

A real joy! I went to see Martin Scart and his team to change the silencers on my 996 3.6L, with the air filter as well, and I can tell you that I am not disappointed! What a sound! My car is no longer the same. I am now behind the wheel of an ultra-sporty beast that also knows how to be discreet when needed. A new sound, raspy at low revs, furious under acceleration. The funniest thing is that it makes me want to drive slower. The pleasure of the sound multiplies the pleasure of driving. As a result, I tend to respect speed limits more. I should say that I have a cabriolet. In direct contact with the sound. Nothing but happiness then! Moreover, I must give a special mention to Martin and his team, because in addition to their extreme competence, they are particularly welcoming and friendly. I now have only one wish, to play the symphony of a real Porsche sound!!! Read more

On 12 February 2012 I chose a SCART Ultima Recital after a long explanation of the advantages of these silencers by Martin, a company that builds the sound you want to measure. It took a day to fit these silencers because the sleeves were rusted. Then came the long-awaited moment of starting up. A treat, and what's more my car is a Tiptronic. A real success, I recommend scart without hesitation. For us, a new order for my son's Boxster, he can't wait to have it. Happiness is there every time I take out my 996 Targa, thank you Martin and keep going, we love the song. Cordially, Sébastien. Read more
On 12 February 2012 I chose a SCART Ultima Recital after a long explanation of the advantages of these silencers by Martin, a company that builds the sound you want to measure. It took a day to fit these silencers because the sleeves were rusted. Then came the long-awaited moment of starting up. A treat, and what's more my car is a Tiptronic. A real success, I recommend scart without hesitation. For us, a new order for my son's Boxster, he can't wait to have it. Happiness is there every time I take out my 996 Targa, thank you Martin and keep going, we love the song. Cordially, Sébastien.
What a fine experience, meeting Il Maestro. The wizard sheet-metal craftsman enjoys a well-deserved reputation. Thank you Martin for giving my 996 the only quality it was missing: a voice like no other; the flat song no longer has to blush next to my Modena. Thank you Martin for your passion, your availability and your kindness. Thank you for the welcome from your whole team. Thank you simply for existing.... Read more

Fitting of valved silencers to replace the original PSE on 19/05/17. I dealt with an enthusiast, proud and happy to show his workshop and his know-how. You can tell right away that the man knows what he's talking about, his explanations are simple and clear. At the first start of my toy, what a thrill and a roar like a big cat that turns heads, nothing but happiness. I don't regret this installation at all, even if it might seem expensive to some, quality has a price and it only adds to the value of the car. Thank you Martin SCART Read more

Bravo and thank you to Martin Scart's teams! A staff of rare professionalism, modest and efficient, at the service of our passion, who allow us to honor our ears and restore the full nobility of the Flat 6 sanitized by its original silencers. Owner of a manual-gearbox TARGA, I left their workshop at 0°C, roof open, heating on, and very happy. The velvet sound envelops me in the cabin from the first engine revs, the furious, deep and melodious accelerations transform my Porsche, which will never be the same again, and it is fabulous. I had the Ultima Recital installed with the BMC filter at the SCART workshop. Thanks again. Read more

15 days ago I had an Ultima Recital fitted on my Porsche 996, hellish music, a very professional team and also very nice, on a scale of 5 to 10 I would give a 10, thanks to the Scart team.
Let's be clear, you change the exhaust on your Porsche to please yourself.
Well, the pleasure starts as early as the fitting.
A nice team that obviously loves its work and its product. Very serious, full of small attentions and explanations: systematic replacement with stainless hardware, heat-shielded pipes, etc.
On top of that, an explanatory walk around the car with the boss, and a pass with the diagnostic tool to confirm that everything was fine.
And then you hit the road. The first word that comes to mind to describe the sensations is "elegance". Surprising! At a steady speed the sound is fuller, but also softer. And as soon as you accelerate, it becomes the sound of a race car. I was a bit surprised when I got home, where I accelerated flat out at the green light in a narrow street. Insane! But not to be repeated at night... Read moreLet's be clear, you change the exhaust on your Porsche to please yourself.

At 8, I would attach a piece of cardboard with 2 clothespins to the rear wheel of my bike to make noise!
At 18, I fitted a D...l exhaust on my 40 hp Simca 1000!
44 years have passed (and 24 motorbikes) before I achieved the ultimate dream: a Porsche 996 4S cabriolet.
Bought last year and fitted with a D...k exhaust, I only had a bit of music from 5000 rpm (and even then).
So, decision to change, search on the net and choice of a Scart Ultima Recital.
After an exchange of emails and phone conversations, an appointment was made for Tuesday at 1:30 pm (5 hours on the road, 2 of them in Paris traffic jams!!) and arrival at Goussainville.
A welcome like you rarely see anymore from Guillaume (despite his bad flu), the master (sic) being absent, presentation of my Ultima, a magnificently polished piece, and fitting by the equally nice Christophe, the king of Picardy karting.
2 hours later, I was heading to Châteauroux in the rain and there, the Scart magic worked.
From 3000 rpm, a raspy sound that makes the hairs on your arms stand up, and under acceleration, well then........ Mozart, what am I saying, not Mozart, Wagner, Ride of the Valkyries style.
At a steady 140, calm in the car, but at the slightest pressure on the accelerator... Rhââ Lovely.
The best was the next day, sun, 30 degrees and I put the top down......
And there, it became a foretaste of Paradise.
Thanks again to you all.

Hello, a little trip to Goussainville last week to fit an exhaust worthy of the name on my 996 4S. Very friendly welcome, very clear explanations from the technician and the metamorphosis begins. Out with the original silencers, which had already stood the test of time, and fitting of Ultima Recital silencers. While I was at it, I also opted for a BMC air filter. Turn of the key, an imposing and slightly muffled sound rises. Test drive, the sound is nicely raspy at low revs and climbs into the high notes on acceleration... superb. Then back home, in the east, after 350 km (by the way I faced a snowstorm... in a Porsche, that's not ideal, but I got back without incident in the end). The sound has really changed; as Guillaume told me, a little break-in is needed. Now, a roar at startup, then a very well-worked sound, nicely raspy and powerful as I wanted, and beautiful vocalizations as the revs climb. It's not the same car at all, the sterile side has disappeared. Finally a real Porsche sound. I was also able to test it on the motorway... well, the noise isn't too present at steady speed and you can without hesitation consider a long trip. So I'm totally delighted, my car can now be furious when I ask it to, but also knows how to be discreet when circumstances require. A very good investment, it's really worth the trip. A big thank you to Guillaume and Christophe (the technician) for their welcome, professionalism and friendliness. A big thank you also to Martin, whom I unfortunately did not meet, for the magic of his harmonics. Olivier C Read more

Silencer with valves for 996 4S Hello Monday morning 9/11/15, check-in with the team. After several hours for the installation, new silencer fitted and then, the shock. Very surprised by the angry sound I hear, I've the impression I have a new car in my hands. I don't regret my choice of a Scart. A huge thank you to Guillaume and his enthusiastic team. Read more

Finding my 996 4S voiceless, I had the idea of treating it with some Scart with valves + BMC air filter. An excellent idea as it turns out. Since then my "frog" is unleashed. The acceleration is melodious. To be more precise, with valves closed the sound is more husky than the original, pleasant yet discrete. Valves open...pure joy. Thank you Guillaume for your warm welcome, continue the good work Read more

As agreed here's the photo of your 200 cell sport cats installed on my 996 4S by Pascal Germain at GT Sport! To follow, certainly a sport air filter, followed then by new silencers...I want to go metallic! Thanks again for the excellent work.
FANTASTIC! I have equipped my 996 4S with two Scart silencers with valves operated by switch. Even with valves closed the sound is really nice and the car is completely transformed once the valves are opened, what a delight. It feels like driving a new car. The switch means that I don't wake the neighbours or can pass discretely through a sleepy village, then open the valves on the open country or mountain roads... A real fest. Very professional welcome and job by the whole team. As for Martin Scart, an enthusiast and a great guy who knows his subject. I highly recommend the transformation... Read more

Hi, very disappointed by the sound or rather the lack of sound of my 996 C4S I went for the Ultima Recital which I fitted myself. What a change! Nice sound when idling, a roar at acceleration and quiet when cruising, perfect on a long journey. The finish is super, fitting easy, just one hick - the price which has just gone up... Read more

My 996 4S was too sanitised for my taste, and I was searching the internet for possible solutions. And that's when I discovered the Martin SCART site. After listening to the different options, I chose the ULTIMA RÉCITAL model. Thanks in passing for the patience and kindness shown by Guillaume. In short, purchase and fitting at a friend who is a mechanic. My only regret: I should have made the trip to Goussainville to benefit from Martin SCART's expertise, and it would have let me visit "the sorcerer's lair" because that's what it is!!!!!!!!! The drive back from the Jura to Haute-Savoie over the passes, the Faucille among them, was such a treat! The mountains are still echoing with it today! Porsche fans, take the time to visit the site and enjoy the different concerts on offer. Pure happiness!!!!!!! Thanks again to Martin SCART, who allowed me to transform my 996 4S into a real sports car, which it was not before as far as sound goes! Read more

Hello,
I found the sound of my Flat 6 (996 C4 Cab, 2003) extremely bland, not to say non-existent!
After some research on the Internet, you quickly come down to 2 players: French or German - oh, isn't that the nationality of my beloved? The Stuttgart side appealed to me, but in case of a problem...
And then, after a few emails and phone calls (thanks to Guillaume for his patience), well, you can feel the enthusiasts, the good advice, no pushy selling but rather advised / guided selling! Take the time to listen, go on the site, on the FB... take your time (I wouldn't have had that with the Germans, who are much more direct). I also particularly loved: "When you listen to it, you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner" - well, pardon the expression, "Damn it", he was 50000% right.
For the choice, follow the advice and listen! Personally, and here it really is personal (my ears): the Classic and the Valve are too high-pitched / metallic whereas the Ultima Récital, after several listens on different Flat 6s, well, for me it was the TOP of the TOP of the TOP. Because of budget (many modifications under way), I did not change my cats, which will very probably be replaced by 300cc ones (the Pro's advice) in 2016. However, Guillaume advised me to change the air filter for the sake of musicality - OK.
At the fitting, in early February, after a lap around the block (I hadn't found the shop, half hidden at the end of a street), we were given a super welcome with a little coffee, a tour of the restaurant, er, no, the shop, cleaner than a restaurant! The fitter, a GEM! He explains everything, gives cleaning tips... A gem, I tell you. He also confirms that changing the air filter brings a nice little extra. But, big surprise on my beauty which unfortunately knocked me out: my rear tyres were dead even though they were only a year old and had been checked not long before! I fell apart and spent my time looking for THE solution so I could enjoy my potential new sound!
The test drive with Guillaume and the drive home (alone) were therefore good but I wasn't really there - and for good reason, the fear of "crashing".
On the other hand, after fitting my 4 new tyres and covering about a thousand kilometres, there, phew, a radical change of sound, a pure marvel, and I confirm: why not have done it sooner! Perhaps because I didn't know :)
In use, at the very beginning, I was afraid because I found there were vibrations and a "droning" (a "heavy" sound that feels a bit odd in my ears) in the car and that it might "wear me out" on long journeys but, after a few hundred kilometres, as Guillaume had said, the sound changes a little and everything falls into place. In town, gently easing the throttle, you get a sound that is more present than before but barely audible. At a steady speed, the "droning" is sometimes audible but really light and not bothersome. Under acceleration, excuse me, "Damn"... pure happiness!
The most impressive: in the Rocquencourt tunnel. A tiny little "run" with a 997 ==> Phew, you couldn't hear it any more!
The catch: fuel consumption goes through the roof!!! Indeed, I downshift much more than before and accelerate much harder than before because that sound, phew, is a real delight! Catch 2: since you accelerate more, people hear you more and at every toll booth everybody looks at you and I don't like that much, but it's hard to do otherwise. Catch 3: driving with the window open in winter (and sometimes in the rain) to enjoy the sound even more! Yes yes, we did it :)
If you hesitate, rack your brains over "THE" right selection of "your right" product and GO FOR IT! It's impossible to regret it! I get home late on Sunday evenings, but by gently easing the throttle (it's very very hard but no choice), I have no problem. On the other hand, on a cold start, er, well, how shall I put it, I wake everyone up and I've already been told (or given to understand), but with a big smile: "I heard you leave very early this morning!".
Finally, I'm 46 and I had 997 Adaptive Sport Seats installed in my 996 (it was difficult, it took a lot of work but Hugues managed it - thanks to him) and my preference goes to the seats and then the silencers; my 24-year-old nephew, for his part, unreservedly prefers the sound of the silencers and then the seats! Phew, and what about his back, eh, does he think about that?! :)
PS 1: I was thinking of changing my hi-fi system, well, thanks SCART, I saved myself that modification :) My new sound system suits me more than perfectly. PS 2: Can't wait for the convertible side so I can enjoy it even more!
Sorry for being so long, but I could talk about it for hours.
A BIG THANK YOU TO THE FITTER (whose first name I still don't have - little message to Guillaume) and to the whole SCART team, who are really super nice.
Good musicality to you. Read moreHello,

Recent owner (a little under a year) of a 996 carrera 4S cabriolet, I wanted to give the sound of my 911 a real boost. I chose a pair of silencers (Ultima Recital plus air filter) and it's a never-ending recital, I live in central France and though the journey up towards Paris wasn't very thrilling, the return journey, was just great and it was raining so the roof was up, but roof down... I can't wait for the first rays of sunshine to hear the Flat6 sing. since the 17th of February my 911 is transformed it's a great organ it's all I had hoped for and more a huge thanks to Martin SCART and to all his team for the great job they do and the welcome I received when I visited them.

I've just acquired my first porsche 996 and it's true the sound of the original isn't bad, but I wanted to have a real Flat 6 with more oomph and thanks to Martin Scart, his team and his silencers (Ultima Recital) the car is transformed, it's all that I hoped for a huge thanks once again to Martin Scart and his team.
I've just sold my carrera S 997 to buy a GT3 3.6L and what I'll miss most, is the magnificent sound of its SCART Ultima Recital exhaust. A deep, husky sound, great no more need of the car stereo the car sings at the slightest acceleration with a little backfire when you slow down just like a racing car! Well done Mr SCART, and at cruising the sound is normal just as it should be. It's the best exhaust for the 997 S, in addition to which Mr scart is a great guy and always attentive, an enthusiast. Don't hesitate to give yourself a treat, it'll transform your car. Read more

I am ecstatic since I had 2 Ultima Recital silencers fitted to my 996 3.4l at Plan de Campagne in March 2014. I've discovered a new car. What music, just as much at a steady engine speed as at high revs. What a pleasure it is driving on country roads and to be able to hear that fabulous Flat 6 sing at last. Thanks once again to Martin Scart for all the explanations he gave me and for the test drive together after the fitting. Olivier (Toulon) Read more

2 years ago I acquired a 996 3.4 (a childhood dream come true at 40). Right from the start I couldn't wait to install some scarts as the sound of the original really isn't up to the standard of such a car. I finally had them installed today (2 magnificent polished stainless steel objects, beautiful Scart workmanship), it really isn't difficult (you just need a bit of perseverance and a bit of WD40 where it's seized up). The car is transformed. At last a sound worthy of a sports car. Read more

The car is transformed. At last a sound worthy of a sports car.
We're close to perfect. Scart Classic on a 996 3.4L for an exceptional sound, true to the Porsche spirit... Visit to the workshop, advice, anecdotes and real professionalism from the entire team. Well done !
In May 2014 I bought a Porsche 996 4S with a defective Pse. According to Porsche the exhaust needed replacing and the estimate was totally unreasonable.... Appointment made with Martin Scart to fit a pair of SCART silencers with valves, 4 hours of hard labour due to the rust...which didn't put off such a professional and experienced man, really nice guy too!!! see the excellent article which ("literally") describes him as "the Porsche whisperer". And its not a Hollywood production but a superb French production the end product being a work of art made of stainless steel!! and what can I say about the all important issue - the sound, it's good... it's magnificent... what a pleasure it is to drive!!!! Thank you very much Martin it's PERFECT!!! Read more

Hello,
A big thank you to Martin Scart for his work and for fitting my exhaust. I had discovered the Ultima Recital on a 996 4S Tiptronic with which I was 100% satisfied and I highly recommend it. This time as the happy owner of a 996 Turbo Cab with a manual gearbox, it needed a voice and it was with complete confidence that I turned to Martin and his team. So I chose an exhaust without valves, with a dyno session for engine optimisation and a change of air filters and tips. The result: magical, killer, grandiose, fantastic etc... Nothing to complain about on the sound, it's all I wanted... Those who are worried can rest assured... The noise is perfectly acceptable for the neighbours, your wife or girlfriend and for yourself. A lot is said on the internet but now that I've taken the plunge I can speak with full knowledge of the facts: - in gentle driving you just need to manage your gear and your accelerator pedal well and that's it, your Porsche will be very discreet - but if you decide to put the power down and be wild and sporty with your mount then... all you can do is take a handkerchief to wipe away a tear, the sound gives you so much emotion and such a thrill. At last your Turbo sings, it's raspy and powerful with great depth and superb intensity, all without being unpleasant and without excessive resonance in the car. You can feel all the work done to achieve this result. Real craftsman's work, perfectionist, demanding and passionate. Thanks again to Martin and his team for the quality of the work.

The 8th of July 2014 Porsche 996 3.6L BV6 Pure joy, a fabulous sound !! Ultima Recital fitted at Plan de Campagne. Great work and very pro ! Thanks to all the Scart team Thierry
A huge thanks to Martin Scart for his help. I bought a pair of Ultima Recital and I didn't know how to fit them. A quick call and Martin took me through the steps in 2 mins. A big thank you for being so reliable. Added to which the exhausts are fabulous. Beautifully made and a cool sound at mid throttle and exquisite once you open up... You've got it, I recommend RSTUBE and Scart.....THANK YOU Read more

Patrice, May 28th 2014. vehicle: Porsche 996 4S. Excellent sound with the scart ultima recital I don't need the car stereo any more the sound is so good. A real pleasure. Well done and thank you.
Even though you'd forgotten my appointment, you did all that was necessary to have my Ultima finished and fitted within the hour, quite a race !!! The result is all I had hoped for, the write-ups on line are all true. My 911 is transformed. Thanks once again JMT
Late November 2013, owner of a 996 C4S with a sound that I found "weak", I was looking for a sport silencer which I could disconnect. By pure chance, I came across Martin SCART's website which apart from giving me hope informed me that a new workshop had opened just off the Marseille ringroad. Appointment booked, I introduced the "beast" and the man religiously set about presenting his range. Products made from French stainless steel, hand made and fitted by his fair hand!!!!! I'd initially planned on simply having a look but in the end I left him with my toy, which 24 hours later left the workshop with a pair of Ultima Recital silencers, handmade dual tail-pipes, new air fiter and a turn on the power bench which showed that in addition to a sound which would make an Italian blush there was a substantial increase in hp and torque!!! I think of this man every day when I start up my car and remind myself that French craftmanship is good! Thank you Mr Martin SCART for what you have achieved. Read more

Hello everyone, Since the age of 10 I have always loved 911s, it never went away, and now at 45, the dream has come true! Recent owner of a 1998 996 3.4, I've been having a blast for a few months. But what a disappointment on the sound front, totally sanitised, ordinary. Of course I landed on the RSTUBE videos. I wanted to buy and have it fitted in my city of Tours. One phone call to Martin later, and on 9 April I was heading back to Tours on the A10 with 2 ULTIMA Recital "on my backside". I was right to make the trip. I was able to watch the fitting by pros, chat with the boss, very friendly and not stingy with explanations, and take the demo drive to understand the SCART sound! It's as if I had a new car, you're finally in a sports car. The result is masterful: a low little crack at start-up, it looks great, smooth and raspy at steady revs, and downright racing as soon as the right foot gets a bit heavier. It's really astonishing to get such a result, not to mention the beauty of the stainless steel parts made on the bench! Best wishes to this fine French company! Read more

I fitted the Ultima Recital 15 days ago. After two drives, I've found the sound of a sports car again. Deep bass on start-up, little pops and bangs when downshifting, a real pleasure. I waited three years before taking the plunge, I should have bought it when I acquired the car. I thank Mr. SCART for his advice and professionalism. Don't wait if you want the sound of a real sports car. Read more

Ultima Recital, what a great moment of symphony..!!

Hello to the whole Scart team and particularly to Martin, who took charge of me. I was very well received despite the not-so-easy health context with distancing rules to follow. After 4 months of using my new exhaust, nothing but happiness. With the valves closed, the car is discreet and makes barely more noise than stock, with a slightly nicer sound than the original. And with the valves open, a race car worthy of a GT3, nothing but happiness and what a pleasure :). Thank you very much to the Scart team. Read more

Met Martin Scart at Paradis Porsche and bought a few days later, the ULTIMA RECITAL silencers have given a new voice to my beautiful 997 Phase 1, which has since kept delighting me with this fantastic melody, more beautiful than the original. Don't hesitate to take the plunge, you won't be disappointed.
The 997 turbo Tiptronic is a wonderful vehicle, and the SCART valved exhaust corrects its only flaw: a sound that is too muted, which doesn't match the car's amazing performance. In open-valve mode, the sound is truly excellent, and with the valves closed, it is nevertheless very close to the original discretion. My exhaust was fitted last year, my car has just come out of a major service with technical inspection, and everything is impeccable... When the mechanic goes to get the car, I recognize the sound among a thousand... In addition, with the sport catalytic converters and air filter, there is also a bit of extra power. Finally, the double pairs of round tips give a much more successful look than the original exhaust tips. In short, an investment I enjoy fully on every outing. Thanks to the whole team! Read more

Totally magical!! After several years of hesitation (this is a substantial budget) and watching videos on the web that turn out to be not very representative, I took the plunge, trusting Martin and his teams. And it is clear that I do not regret it in the slightest. My 997 turbo cabriolet finally makes a sound worthy of its badge and its performance. A real joy. A noble but discreet sound with the valves closed, and a raspy sound, bestial at the bottom and more metallic and airy at the top with the valves open. Above all, and this is the most remarkable achievement, there is never any resonance!! A truly racy sound, necessarily different from that of a GT3, but just as beautiful in a different way. I am rediscovering my Turbo, especially as a cabriolet, and enjoying it more than ever. Everyone notices the change, and it is funny to discover how many people imagine it has always sounded like this, so natural is this sound and so well does it suit the car. In short, thanks again for the installation and the top welcome, and bravo for these beautiful made in France creations!! Safe travels to all... ;-) Read more

Hello everyone, I recently ordered an Ultima Recital for my 997 Carrera Phase 1. Let's start simply: the sound was muted from the factory, I call Scart and there, great phone welcome, advice, delivery top. The silencer wasn't in stock but 4 days later it was made and delivered. Bravo Scart. The sound is as I was told. My foot sets the volume. I was afraid of making too much noise and well no. You have to modulate. Motorway no problem. No resonance, nothing. And when you push it, well it delivers. Perfect. If you need to hear it in Bordeaux, ask Scart for my number. Bravo to all. Thanks Read more

Thanks to Mr. Martin, Mr. Cyrille and the whole team at the Scart workshop in Goussainville for their welcome! A good discussion between enthusiasts guided my choice towards an Ultima Recital to replace the original exhaust on my 2005 997 S. I visited with wonder the lair where the exhausts are entirely manufactured, and I can assure you this is not "made in China"! The order was placed on Monday morning and received on Wednesday, what efficiency! The detailed explanations the team gave me allowed me to fit the pair of silencers in under 2 hours with a friend. Note that replacing the clamps was mandatory given their age. Result: a real flat 6 sound, nicely raspy, muted at low revs and more metallic in the revs, not intrusive as I feared (except for fans of low revs, for whom the low frequencies can become bothersome). In the end you get the little whine that rewards you at the turn of the key, a sound that is present but discreet at idle and at a steady speed, and the real roar when you put your foot down! A sort of automatic valves, in a way, that open and close intelligently. If, as for me, the PSE was a sine qua non condition in choosing your used 997, forget it!! The solution is at Scart. Read more

"You know the craftsman by his work." Now I know Monsieur Scart: as soon as the package arrived, the color was announced. No doubt, the product is here. My Grail, the Ultima Recital Scart, I discover a numbered piece, 4734, it's my Ultima Recital and nobody else's. I touch it, I stroke it... goldsmith's work. Handmade, made in France and of very, very fine craftsmanship. The stainless steel is beautiful and of incredible quality. You can imagine the craftsman cutting the stainless steel, bending it, welding it, you can touch the passion with your hand, you feel it, it's there in front of us. I live in Grenoble, so I naturally contacted Garage 2B in La Ravoire (38). Enthusiasts, Porsche specialists. For such a product, I need the very best, so garage 2B. After 3 hours of meticulous work (removal and fitting), finally the first turn of the key. First roar, the shivers are there, and the beast too... it's here. I still get shivers. Quick, quick, the drive home. Between 2000 and 3000 rpm, it's paradise. A full, deep, raspy and wonderful sound. A bit of motorway, constant speed 130 km/h. The Ultima Recital is discreet, I can't hear it. I press the accelerator, nothing but pleasure. Heading to La Poya, the road lends itself to a few bursts of throttle, nothing but happiness and what happiness. A symphonic recital. Congratulations MONSIEUR SCART, thanks to your passion, my 997 Carrera 4S is unique. I can make the Little Prince's quote my own: "Go look at the roses again... You will understand that yours is unique in the world." Thank you for your responsiveness and the (precise) answers to my questions. Hoping to be able to meet you one day. Best regards Read more

Hearing, like all the senses, is subjective. The recent installation of a valved silencer on my 997 3.8 makes me think I have the same tastes as Mr. Scart. What will please some may displease others, with the valves open I would describe the sound as very loud, but of great quality.
A very good compromise for my 2006 997 4S 3.8L Tiptronic cabriolet, the Scart Sport Classic, you don't need more, it purrs just as it should without being racing, it's perfect, a very accomplished product for those looking for a bit of discretion, the difference from the original sound is really there.
It's a pleasure to meet Martin SCART, passionate and professional like they don't make them anymore. These products are fantastic ... Valved silencer on my 997 S, I finally hear the sound of the flat 6 like never before ...
Hello and thank you to the team for an excellent job on my car. Exhaust with valves + 200c cats + headers for my 997 turbo. I even got to shake the hand of the guy who made my exhaust! and yes, it's a one off part, made in France by artists ! It's worth the trip. As for the sound it's just fantastic and with the remote control it's where I want, when I want ... Long live SCART ! Jean-Luc Read more

having sold my Boxster 3,2S with a SCART Récital, with which I was entirely satisfied, I set about finding an exhaust which could give a great sound to my new 997S 3,8 from 2006. Despite a natural attraction to the SCART sound, I allowed myself to be tempted by the Dansk silencers which promised the melody for an interesting price... Mistake!! At low revs, the sound is hoarse and seems pleasant... but as the revs increase, it's awful! Absolutely no harmony! the sound remains desperately deep just like a muscle-car or an American V8! at high revs the flat's sound is completely ruined and I found myself regularly reaching for the switch to hear whether or not the revs were in fact rising. in short, disappointed, I decide to dismount the Dansk after only 4 months and order the Scart with valves to replace them... once I receive the Scarts I dismount the Dansk.... two surprises await!! one of the Dansk silencers made of so-called "stainless steel" has a crack! and once I hold the two brands (Scart and Dansk) next to each other, the superior quality of the Scart stainless steel is so obvious!! In short... I tried the Dansk but clearly when compared with the Scart you can see straight away that the Dansk not only have a vastly inferior quality but also a very approximate (or no) development in terms of sound. so for me the choice is made! i won't be making the same mistake again!

What a dream, ear-extasy after adding an Ultima to my 997; melodious at low revs, at high revs, an orgasmic recital and not at all tiresome when cruising, the initial cost is soon forgotten as soon as you turn the key.
Hi everyone. Early September fitted a SCART with Valves on a 997S. Sheer pleasure! to be used without moderation! Run-in period concluded on the roads of the Mont Ventoux. Will have to go to the SCART stand at the paradis porsche meeting this weekend to share my great satisfaction.
Having looked into the subject, I decided to fit my 1st generation 997 with a Scart with valves, with 2B Autos in Chambéry (Savoie). Sheer pleasure for the last four months. Valves closed the sound is deeper and lower than the original and yet unobtrusive (my wife copes with it very well indeed!!). However, valves open, it's not the same car, the sound is throaty, powerful but pleasant and passing through tunnels (and not only then...) pure joy. When I shift down "she farts" like a racing car and I'm smiling from ear to ear. To make it short I highly recommend it, and my car is transformed and is so much more pleasurable. Personally I chose the remote control which I prefer because there are no wires, no drilling. Well done to the Scart team and to the team at 2B in Chambéry. Alain Read more

After a long hesitation and the good advice of Guillaume and Martin Scart, I decided to have a pair of SCART valved silencers installed on my 997 S Phase 1. Car dropped off the evening before, Wednesday, so that he could work on it cold and in peace. Picked up the beast on Friday at 1:30 pm and a short test drive with Martin Scart to validate the fitting and the SOUND.
Guillaume was there, he admitted to me that it was one of the Porsches that has a different SOUND compared to others, according to him some have a more pronounced SOUND, and what was my joy during the test, big thrills with the valves closed and when he opened them, then there "THE BANANA"
The next day I set off for a good stretch of road in the Vendée and took the opportunity to break in the silencers, and on the way back after 900 km the almost final sound is definitely there, even more raspy in the closed position and open a CRAZY SOUND on every rev climb
Fitting worthy of their reputation "and yet I am a stickler for detail"
long life to this establishment and you can go there with your eyes closed but your ears wide open
thanks again for the pleasure you have given me Read moreAfter a long hesitation and the good advice of Guillaume and Martin Scart, I decided to have a pair of SCART valved silencers installed on my 997 S Phase 1. Car dropped off the evening before, Wednesday, so that he could work on it cold and in peace. Picked up the beast on Friday at 1:30 pm and a short test drive with Martin Scart to validate the fitting and the SOUND.
Guillaume was there, he admitted to me that it was one of the Porsches that has a different SOUND compared to others, according to him some have a more pronounced SOUND, and what was my joy during the test, big thrills with the valves closed and when he opened them, then there "THE BANANA"
The next day I set off for a good stretch of road in the Vendée and took the opportunity to break in the silencers, and on the way back after 900 km the almost final sound is definitely there, even more raspy in the closed position and open a CRAZY SOUND on every rev climb

When buying my 997 C4S Phase 1, I skipped the sport exhaust in favor of other options, knowing that I could change the exhaust later. For several months I had been discussing it with Sébastien CASTERAN, a PORSCHE garage in Toulouse and loyal to the SCART brand. An appointment was therefore made for mid-April to fit a SCART valved exhaust. I was counting the days... on the day, I left my car in the morning at 9:00 to pick it up in the afternoon. On my return, we quickly headed to my car to hear it sing; the magic had worked. Even with the valves closed the sound is different, more raspy but muted. Once the valves are open it is a symphony, the low notes explode, the sound is transcended. Back on the road, in valves-closed mode, the sound in the cabin is almost identical to the standard exhaust (just a bit more raspy). In valves-open mode, it is a new car, and I only want to play with the right pedal to hear the vocalizations as the revs climb. What surprised me is that with the valves open at a steady speed the sound is very reasonable, using it is a real treat. In conclusion, SCART are truly magicians who changed the personality of my car, and CASTERAN are excellent professionals who offer their customers a welcome and a seriousness worthy of our favorite brand. Next step, I change the catalytic converters... (SCART of course) Read more

Hello, unable to go to Goussainville, I undertook the installation of a SCART exhaust on my 997 GT3 (I have a pit). Very easy to fit, less than two hours. Congratulations to the team, in particular to Mr. Beaumont, very available for any information, very "customer attitude", attentive to the customer. My thanks also to the fitter who gave me some valuable advice. For enthusiasts who want to make this swap on a GT3, there is no need to remove the rear bumper skirt, the operation can be done without any problem. I feel like I have changed cars, the sound is fantastic, whether with the valves closed or open. Raspy sound at idle, and lyrical flight in the revs..!!! FABULOUS... A bit of humor.... The little men in blue will hear me coming from afar to get ready to intercept me at 90 km/h... to see the "Beauty" of course, because respect for the rules obliges... And what a product..!!? Superb quality, a real jewel. Thanks again, and I can only encourage future customers who hesitate to take the plunge.... Don't change anything, bravo again to the team. Very cordially, Jean Charles D Read more

Hello, last week I had my garage, 2B located in La Ravoire (73000), fit 1 pair of Scart valved silencers on my 997 S Phase 1. I am delighted with the result and very satisfied with the choice. Bravo for your exhaust and to 2 B for their great fitting (I recommend them if you are asked for an installer in Savoie). Kind regards. AP Read more

Thanks to Martin and his team for their exemplary welcome. Owner of a Phase 1 997 equipped with the Porsche PSE, which eventually broke down!!! So I turned to Martin Scart to find a solution. After a constructive exchange, I opted for an Ultima Recital. What a joy to give my 997 a second life and finally set it free... a flawless result with irreproachable build and fitting quality. I feel like I have a new car. Gentle at constant speed (the beauty) and furious on every firm press of the accelerator (the beast)... To be managed according to your wishes and moods. Bravo and delighted with this choice. Long life and success to the team. Read more

Hello to the whole team! Owner of a 2004 997 Carrera S Tiptronic for 1 year, I gradually transformed a mute car into an opera singer: having first fitted a Scart Classic silencer, the sound it produces immediately became more virile, singing. In December, one of the original catalytic converters then gave out. I went to the 200 c... Well, there, we really changed register: half GT3, half 993, I turned the straight road that passes in front of my house into the Hunaudières: pure pleasure! Read more

Not only does the silencer give me complete satisfaction, but thanks to it I did not sell my GT3, which has soared in value, and above all for the pleasure it gives me in the Corsican mountains where its flat 6 finally resonates. Thank you thank you 😀😀😀😀😀 Joseph
At last!! my "frog" is transformed into conductor. The ULTIMA RECITAL has given my 997S a true "vintage" sound Thanks for your welcome and professionalism and long live SCART
Hi everyone, as owner of a 997 carrera S cab from 2005 for the last year and a half (having previously had a 348, élise sc, superlight cats) all stainless steel, I wanted to improve the musicality of my air-cooled (heresy) flat six. I rang Scart and Guillaume suggested that I come by to give the underside of my 911 a check-up. Surprise the silencers were made by... "Maranello"!! re heresy! In short, we decided to fit the Scart catalysers with a BMC filter. Christophe, master of works, fits the cats, the filter and the wide diameter stainless steel tailpipes, all really excellent, its a pleasure to work with enthusiasts. At start-up...a little disappointed... at acceleration better, run-in good, the sound is rounder hotter, several extra dbs but not as fierce as I had expected. Return home, 200kms and run-in 100kms ...better and better. arriving home where I share a garage next to my wife's practice, she askes that evening : what's that racket (re heresy)... ok to sum up : if you take U2 in your stride at 2000 revs, ACDC at 6000 revs... listen to SCART!!!!! ..nb we have two lives and the second begins once you visit Scart rgds Damien/Confucius Read more

After months of searching, I finally have a 977 that sings! At Scart, Guillaume gave me a perfect explanation and convnced me that a pair of Scart Classic would give a great sound whether idling or at full throttle. Fitting at the workshop north of Paris, friendly and professional team! Bravo! The result is great: a sound even at idle yet no droning or resonance on the road. THANKS! Read more

A quick word to inform you of my entire satisfaction. I'm the happy owner of a 997 4S fitted with a par of Scart Ultima Recital. My porsche roars now! Thanks to mr Scart and to Guillaume for their professionalism
I own a 997 C2S cabriolet and, after a first fitting by the MCG establishment of an Ultima Récital, a very beautiful sound but in my taste a bit too loud for a cabriolet, which I think is not its primary philosophy. I told Mr. SCART about my concern and, after negotiation, an exchange was made for a SCART CLASSIC and there... it's pure happiness, which I would simply sum up as "LOUD BUT DISCREET", everything I was looking for. Thanks again to Mr. SCART for his availability and professionalism Read more

Hi, I had a Scart Ultima Recital fitted to my 997 (gen1) and I would qualify the sound as "sheer pleasure". A huge thanks to the whole team for their professionalism!
Owner of a 1st generation 997 S with the famous x 51 option (sport exhaust, modified cylinder heads, sport manifolds, optimised gear box and carbon air box), I wanted to add a bit of spice to the car's already quite virile sound. And so add a pair of sport cats. Result : brilliant ! a huskier sound, more present and powerful, with an engine reaching high revs faster. What more can you ask for!!! Read more

Hello, I wanted to thank Martin SCART and all of his team for their "transformation" of my 1st gen 997 C2S. The car already had a Porsche PSE, on Mr SCART's advice I chose to keep the PSE but to change the original catalysers for a pair of recently developped SCART sport cats. Result : MAGNIFICENT. The sound is cavernous, very deep.. the speed build-up is faster (15hp/20hp extra). Finally a remote control was fitted to be able to turn ON/OFF: EXCELLENT ! In summary: for all those who wish to transform their car I recommend Martin SCART. THANKS to all the team Read more

Hi, Well, I did it! After a lot of hesitation I took the plunge and had a pair of Ultima Recital fitted last week in Aix en Provence (Plan de Campagne). 997 I 4S Fabulous ! The sound is magnificent at full throttle, a deep, gutteral growl, it's just not the same car. Through tunnels and narrow streets, a little bit of acceleration and you'd think you were a rally driver, add to that a little shiver of satisfaction. On the other hand, when you're just at cruising speed you can hardly tell the difference with the original. In short it's a great success. I was in contact with Mr Mortier throughout and I thank him for his professionalism, he was a source of very good advice and even made himself available on a Sunday. He really listened and answered all my questions and doubts ... Thank you. For those of you who are still hesitating, I really encourage you to take the plunge - it's just great. If anyone in my region (Aix en Provence) would like to hear the result, don't hesitate to get in touch via Scart. Thanks once again to the team. Read more

Hello everyone, I wanted to share my experience of buying a Scart Ultima Récital exhaust for my 2007 997 C4 with manual gearbox, it may help potential buyers who have questions. Already during the 1st phone contact with Martin Scart I could see his great professionalism, he asked many precise questions about my car's model, where I live, how I use the car and what I wanted in terms of sound. I had set out with the idea of installing a valved exhaust, thinking that only that model allowed having 2 exhausts in 1, that is, a sound that isn't too present when driving "like a good family man" or on long motorway trips, and on the other hand I wanted it to "spit" loudly when I wanted to have fun. Martin Scart told me the Ultima Récital met my expectations and that there was no need to spend more on valves. So I said deal! and I can tell you I'm not disappointed, it has now been installed for nearly a month and about 2000 km driven with it. The 1st thrill is at start-up: the roar when you turn the key brings a grin and then when the revs settle the sound is not much louder than the original, which avoids bothering everyone when you're at the lights. Just to start my 911 in the garage I've changed my routine: before, I started it with the windows closed since the sound wasn't very thrilling anyway, now I lower the windows or leave my door open before turning the key in my garage, I'm like a kid!!! A few days after the installation, we set off in the 911 with my wife and my 2 children for a weekend on the Bassin d'Arcachon (600 km from our home), we drove at night and I can tell you the whole little family slept well during the trip (except me of course, who was driving), which proves that at a steady speed the sound is under control, not much louder than the original. On the other hand when you really press the gas pedal it's ecstasy! especially when you pass along nearby walls or in a tunnel. Martin Scart's videos are very well made but in real life it's of course 10 times better! So in the end I'm delighted, this exhaust fully meets my expectations: I have a blast from time to time with a sound worthy of the old Le Mans 911 RSRs and I don't risk divorce when we leave for long family trips. Thanks to Martin for transforming my car, I found it too "politically correct" and now I'm rediscovering it and have fallen totally in love. So I'll say just one thing to those still hesitating to take the plunge: "the price is forgotten, the quality remains!" Thierry Read more

At the age of 45, I have offered myself a boyhood dream = a 911, more precisely a 1st generation 997 S, which I wanted without the PSE: why ? to be able to fit one of M. Scart's Ultima Recital. Here at CP in The Reunion, the installation was quick and easy. Now they're run-in, my silencers unleash their entire range of growls, a full round sound when accelerating and a "vintage metallic firecracker" when decelerating ! What surprised me, and pleased me, is that apart from the sound, the Ultima Recital creates a real ambiance... it's not just the person in the car behind you that hears it all, you can hear it all too when you lower the windows; and through a tunnel it's really powerful. The Ultima Recital makes the flat 6 purr, or it makes the lion "scream" when you put your foot down. I love it. M. Scart's enthusiasm shows in the way he has developped his products, maybe I'm easily impressed, but just take a look at the video with M JC Bonhomme and his 2.7 RS 1973... what a sound ! Personally it reminds me of when I went on the Val de Vienne circuit in Vigent (86) when luck had it an authentic 2,7 RS was on the piste. Read more

The 550 km to pay a short visit to the SCART workshops near Paris were justified! Excellent welcome, craftsmanship and very professional work with an uncommon level of build quality. The fitting of my valved exhaust (with a switch) was carried out in the Scart workshops. Excellent work and a great result!!! A sound almost identical to the original with the valves closed and a crazy sound once they are open. Pure pleasure for the ears, whenever you want it :o) Read more

Today, 09/04/2024: a welcoming and very professional team. Thank you to Christophe and his workshop manager for installing a SCART exhaust on my car. I highly recommend this company, which specializes in exhausts for Porsche and other sports cars. Pascal
Hello fellow Porsche fans, I wanted to thank Mr. SCART for his great professionalism and know-how. I thought about it for a long time and finally gave in and had this exhaust fitted on my 997 Phase 2. The cost is not negligible, but believe me, friends, you won't regret it!! You will feel like you've changed cars!! For those who live in Rhône-Alpes, I recommend the garage Ljmotorsport, real pros. Raph Read more

I've just picked up my car and it's transformed. The new button on the dashboard is magic. The installation is perfect, and they even took advantage of the bumper being removed to repair my proximity sensors. Thank you to the whole team.
Dear Porsche friends, those who think the stock 997.2 is the most voiceless Porsche on the market (even with the PSE) are absolutely right! I own one that had the original PSE, but with an X-Pipe from another brand, which basically brought it back to a Phase 1 with a stock PSE... I was lucky enough to be able to compare (I came by on the right day, an exceptional one...!) during my visit to Dayraut Racing / Gliss Auto Sport in Toulouse, two 997.2s, one fitted with a Scart valved X-Pipe and the other with another brand. There was no comparison... So I decided, as a first step, to swap my standard X-Pipe for a Scart valved X-Pipe, which matched the sound I had heard in Toulouse. That is already not bad at all, combined with BMC air filters. After some very friendly discussions with Martin Scart and a look at my finances, I decided to go for the "full works": - 200 CC headers and catalytic converters; - Valved X-Pipe; - Reliability upgrade / modification of the original silencers; - BMC air filters. For those who are not geographically close to Martin SCART's workshops, the reliability upgrade of the silencers requires a round trip to their workshop, which was done in 72 hours from Toulouse. I went to see the parts on receipt in Toulouse, and they are real works of art! I could not wait to see them fitted. It is a pity that I cannot put a photo of the parts and of the result once fitted on the car on the site. It is simply magnificent! Now, let's get to the heart of the matter, the sound! To quote Martin Scart on the phone: "With the valved X-Pipe (and I insist on the valved model, not the standard one), you are on another planet, with the 200 CC catalytic converters in another galaxy!" That is exactly it! I went out with 30 Porsches, and mine became the loudest. A true symphony, loud, powerful and raspy, while staying in the Porsche spirit. Proof that the 3.8L flat, even with direct injection, only wants to express itself. You get the best sound you can get out of a naturally aspirated flat! I would say without hesitation that Martin Scart is the Mozart of Porsches! My wife, who does not particularly like cars, even found it beautiful.

Dear Porsche friends, those who think the stock 997.2 is the most voiceless Porsche on the market (even with the PSE) are absolutely right! I own one that had the original PSE, but with an X-Pipe from another brand, which basically brought it back to a Phase 1 with a stock PSE... I was lucky enough to be able to compare (I came by on the right day, an exceptional one...!) during my visit to Dayraut Racing / Gliss Auto Sport in Toulouse, two 997.2s, one fitted with a Scart valved X-Pipe and the other with another brand. There was no comparison... So I decided, as a first step, to swap my standard X-Pipe for a Scart valved X-Pipe, which matched the sound I had heard in Toulouse. That is already not bad at all, combined with BMC air filters. After some very friendly discussions with Martin Scart and a look at my finances, I decided to go for the "full works": - 200 CC headers and catalytic converters; - Valved X-Pipe; - Reliability upgrade / modification of the original silencers; - BMC air filters. For those who are not geographically close to Martin SCART's workshops, the reliability upgrade of the silencers requires a round trip to their workshop, which was done in 72 hours from Toulouse. I went to see the parts on receipt in Toulouse, and they are real works of art! I could not wait to see them fitted. It is a pity that I cannot put a photo of the parts and of the result once fitted on the car on the site. It is simply magnificent! Now, let's get to the heart of the matter, the sound! To quote Martin Scart on the phone: "With the valved X-Pipe (and I insist on the valved model, not the standard one), you are on another planet, with the 200 CC catalytic converters in another galaxy!" That is exactly it! I went out with 30 Porsches, and mine became the loudest. A true symphony, loud, powerful and raspy, while staying in the Porsche spirit. Proof that the 3.8L flat, even with direct injection, only wants to express itself. You get the best sound you can get out of a naturally aspirated flat! I would say without hesitation that Martin Scart is the Mozart of Porsches! My wife, who does not particularly like cars, even found it beautiful.

Hello, before my purchase, like many of you, I compared the models from the different brands, I watched dozens of videos, I read the forum comments, it's not easy to form an opinion without having listened live. Anyway, since the Scart model is often praised, I took the plunge, fed up with the flat 6 being far too discreet. I love listening to beautiful engine sounds, I even go to every edition of Le Mans Classic to listen to the monsters of the 70s and 80s, what music! So my 997 had to sing too. Anyway, I place my order, and I fit the valved model on my car. The fitting doesn't require any particular mechanical skills, the hardest part is removing the bolts affected by rust, which takes a bit of patience. Mine has a few uncommon specifics (3.6L, manual gearbox), which changes the fitting a little. Martin Scart was there to answer all my questions, so thank you to him. Fitting finished, night had fallen, I go for a drive with my son, who doesn't want to miss a single bit. What can I say about the sound? Forget the videos, reality is much better. The sound is deep and raspy without being too loud, just what it takes, the revs climbing make you feel like you're driving a race car! I overdo the heel-and-toe on downshifts, it's a treat and it's so enjoyable that we add a few detours to the drive. I drove for 4 years with an almost silent 911, I now have a new 911, thanks to Martin's talent, it's art. To all those who are still hesitating, go to him. Read more

I rarely leave reviews after my purchases because it's not my thing, but here I feel compelled to write a nice little note, I'm so delighted with what the Scart valves and X-pipe bring me when I hear that magnificent sound pouring out of my exhausts. I wanted to improve the sound of my flat 6 while keeping the original tailpipes and being able to switch back to the original mode if I felt like it; those conditions are met and I feel like I've changed cars. What a pleasure! For those who are still hesitating to take the plunge (I waited 2 years too long :), go for it, I highly recommend this system, with the switch cleverly hidden by my mechanic in the side carpet. Thanks to the team for the advice at Paradis Porsche in Saint-Tropez, and to Martin Scart for quickly sorting out a few shipping issues. Flat-sixly yours. Read more

Always a pleasure to install Scart exhausts in our workshops. Everything is well aligned, detailed and fits perfectly. A real treat.
Many thanks to Mr. SCART and his mechanic for their availability, patience and kindness, and of course: congratulations on his exhausts, which live up to their reputation. These exhausts should be fitted as standard... I personally equipped both my 987.1 and my 997.2: 100% satisfaction.
I've just given my 997 GTS cabriolet its voice back. After a short stop at Atelier 911 in Mérignac, I added a valved exhaust to my beauty, with the device that removes the cut-off. And there, I have to tell you, what a surprise (I'm grinning just writing this comment). It changes everything! The raspy sound when the valves are open is magical under acceleration and muted at a steady speed. With the valves closed, it's more subdued but you can feel the sound is still there. In short: pure happiness to have found a Porsche with the sound it so badly lacked. A big thank you to Martin SCART for his availability and advice, and also to Jérôme CARRERO of Atelier 911 who did a very good job. BRAVO!!! Read more

I hesitated for a long time, for financial reasons, and also to have something reversible in case I need to go back to Porsche Approved. I took the X-Pipe configuration, with the cut-out removed, and an air filter... and I don't regret it, a very beautiful piece, slightly visible :-). In terms of sound, it's finally a sports car, with the window closed, and even better open, I can finally hear it in tunnels :-) :-) and it allows for some lovely lyrical flights. The only downside, but it's due to the PDK, is that you don't always get the same rage on acceleration, even flat out, which can bring surprises when it really takes off :-). The sound is better both with and without valves, quite violent if you leave the valve open at startup, but it's really great! Overall, acceleration is also better, and I'd say it's a bit like going from Sport mode to Sport Plus, there is less inertia, it wants more and revs up a little faster. I really don't regret my choice, the team is very friendly, the professional fitting was done on site, and it feels good to have French products, I think that gives an extra touch. This modification is true to the GTS, between the S and the GT3, one more step towards the track and sport, but still with great class :-) Safe driving to all, hoping to cross paths one of these days :-) to share our passion for 'frogs'!

Hello,
BMC air filter + Scart X-pipe + removal of the automatic closing of the valves = great happiness! With the PSE on, the 997 sings without ever overdoing it, a metallic soar through the revs, a deep crackle when you lift off, the soundtrack matches the car's performance. Thanks to Martin and his team for the welcome, an example of French know-how and a precious address for all lovers of fine mechanics! Read moreHello,

After owning my 997.2 S for a year, I decided to give it some vocal exercises and chose a valved Scart exhaust. After a phone call and booking an appointment with Martin Scart, I found myself at his premises 2 weeks later for the installation. Very warm welcome, a tour and explanation of the workshop with Martin Scart, I settled in comfortably to wait, and after 5 hours the car was started, and there! Valves closed it's like stock, but valves open it's exceptional, I could hardly wait to go and try it. An exceptional sound on acceleration. Truly a quality exhaust, with the valves open I feel like I have a new car. Fellow Porsche owners, if you want to give your 997 a voice, don't hesitate, think SCART. A big thank you to Martin Scart and his whole team for the welcome and the explanations, you are at the top. MG Read more

Very happy with our first Porsche (997-2 Targa 4S), my wife and I found it a bit dysphonic... Warmly welcomed by Mr. Scart and reassured by the professionalism of Christophe the fitter, we left Goussainville with 2 cars instead of one (fitting of a valved exhaust + Porsche control switch bar + BMC air filters). With the valves open, it is ample, raspy and deep at low revs, magnified between 2 and 3500 rpm, and beyond that increasingly metallic and frankly furious, all while keeping the Porsche sound, with a few unexpected and delightful burbles on deceleration... With the valves closed, you have a civilized car with a muted, refined sound that will not bother anyone on your route; ours is even quieter than before, because of a small pre-existing modification that Christophe removed during fitting; very pleasant in town or at a steady speed on the motorway, for talking calmly. In short, we are delighted and can recommend Mr. Scart, his team and his products without reservation. Read more

After owning a 997 Carrera Phase 1 with a sweet (standard) sound, acquiring a Phase 2 Carrera S left me disappointed, it was voiceless. I went to Martin Scart, who advised me well (valved central exhaust + Porsche PSE switch strip + BMC sport air filter). Before starting the conversion, I was able to hear the result on an identical model that had just come out of their workshop. In short, it's expensive but the advice is good, the workshop manager is great, Martin is very welcoming and professional, and above all the result is PERFECT! Driving pleasure rediscovered with a perfect sound (and the option of keeping quiet too, which is perfect for peace with the neighbors). I RECOMMEND! Read more

Great communication to find the right configuration together. Fitting done through my independent garage. Catalytic converter + valved X-pipe. Closed: at a steady speed almost the same as the original, in the revs very nice, finally worthy of the car and with no drawbacks. Open: Diabolical! In sport or sport + mode, demonic in the revs. A new car ;) Read more

Finding, like many owners of a 997 GTS or Phase 2, that the sound of the original exhaust, even with PSE, was really timid (not to say non-existent), I naturally did some research on various Porsche forums and that's where I came across SCART. 100% handmade and 100% French, with top-quality materials, so I looked for videos to hear the difference and indeed it's excellent. A short email and 2 hours later I received a call from Martin Scart in person (that's nice), and after a few minutes of sound advice, the appointment was made. On site, a very warm welcome, a technician took charge of my beauty, and the work began. I opted for the valved exhaust, the BMC air filters and, for the finish, beautiful chrome tailpipes. Throughout the process they call you to take photos of the disassembly and the various changes. The mechanic is very professional, very careful, artist's work... A few hours later, the long-awaited moment arrives, we turn the key and there... the magic happens, the sound is magnificent, well beyond my expectations because in the videos online, the sounds are flattened. In closed mode the noise is very discreet, in open mode it's a very deep, powerful sound, worthy of a track car. I recommend this modification, you can go in with your eyes closed, satisfaction guaranteed. Read more

Disappointed by the PSE on the 997 Phase 2, I naturally turned to the 911 wizard, Martin Scart (thanks to the forums). Welcomed as if I were part of the family, I was able to appreciate the know-how that comes from long experience, which immediately puts a technical enthusiast like me at ease. The in-house fabrications could honorably sit in a display case in my living room (in my workshop, says my wife). I wanted a Miss Jekyll and Miss Hyde 911 and signed up for the stainless headers + 200 cell sport cat + Scart valve assembly + X-pipe + anti-cut-off box, so almost the max configuration (yes, you can also add the in-house wing silencers, which bring a few soprano notes to the melody). After a few interminable hours of patience, the verdict came in. How to put it... the results are above my expectations: with the valves closed (PSE button off), the sound is almost identical to stock, although a bit sportier. With the valves open, the sound is that of a GT3... a tuned one!!! The specific sound of the flat 6 is still there, but much more aggressive and metallic the higher you go in the revs. By my criteria, there is no excess, because you just press the magic button to return to normal. Let's be clear, the sound is somewhat out of the ordinary and that is what I was looking for, but it is no louder than other Italian, American or Teutonic cousin toys from the factory. I only use it in the open countryside but I sometimes give in when passing through a tunnel... mea culpa and ave Martin! Read more

Hello, I'm not used to expressing myself online but given the quality of the welcome and of the service at Martin Scart's workshops, I'm making an exceptional point of doing so with pleasure. I live in the Bordeaux region and had to pick up my car in Strasbourg on 30/11/2021. About 1 week before, I had Mr. Scart on the phone describing the product I was interested in (valved X-pipe). I decided to trust him and asked whether it would be possible to install it on 01/12/2021, since I would be traveling to the Paris region on the very day of the purchase and could head back to Bordeaux the next day. To accommodate me, Martin asked one of his customers, for whom he had already made the exhaust, whether he could slightly postpone his installation so that he could install mine on my vehicle. On the evening of the 30th, Martin Scart was waiting for me at his workshop at 6 pm, dropped me off at the hotel and committed to starting work at 7 am so that I could get back on the road as early as possible. The next day he put his showroom at my disposal, where I could admire some of his works and, incidentally, get some work done. Beforehand, he had given me a tour of his workshop and presented the famous X-pipe that was going to equip my vehicle. Around 3:30 pm I was sending an email when suddenly I heard a rather fabulous noise that could resemble the sound of a flat six. I got up to see which vehicle was the source of this beautiful music and what was my surprise to see that it was my 997 with Martin at the wheel (Yes, yes, I checked the license plate to leave no room for doubt). I would just like to add that even with the valves closed there is already a plus in terms of sound while remaining very discreet. I think this little story says enough about the quality and professionalism of Martin Scart's workshops. A big thank you to Martin and perhaps see you soon for further upgrades! Read more

I would like to very sincerely thank Christophe, as friendly as he is competent, who this morning expertly installed a valved exhaust on my 997 Phase II Targa 4S. It roars or purrs on demand, to my great pleasure. I would also like to thank Martin, who is truly the Mozart of the exhaust and who welcomed me very warmly! I highly recommend Scart, the result is truly stunning and the team is really great! Bravo and thanks again, Philippe Read more

Having owned my second 911 4S for over a month, I was eager to give my frog some vocal exercises! Indeed, I can confirm that this 997.2 is far too quiet for my taste to be able to appreciate the beauty in all her splendour. So quite naturally I turned to the valved exhaust (for the original PSE) recommended by Martin Scart for this model. I was literally blown away by the demonic sound released by my beauty from the very first turn of the key!!! At idle, you hear an imposing, deep, raspy sound without being unbearable. As soon as you accelerate up the revs, the sound gains amplitude and becomes simply exhilarating! The Porsche sound is totally respected! The little extra? When you lift off the throttle, you hear amplified overrun sounds! Pure happiness! You become addicted to this sound! As soon as you switch off the engine, you only want one thing: to start it again! With the original PSE, I was able to connect the valve opening to the button on the centre console. A little extra to respect the Porsche original. Once the valves are closed, I can confirm that my beauty behaves perfectly. You'd think no modification had been made. It's real comfort: you remain master of the place and the moment when you want your devilish frog to express itself. Otherwise, I'm not sure the neighbours would accept hearing it in the middle of the night from miles away :) ..... In short, an investment totally worthy of the pleasure it gives! Hats off Mr. SCART! Safe travels fellow Porsche fans, and run to Martin with your eyes closed! :) PS: the sound you hear in the videos gives you an idea. However, it's nothing compared with hearing it in real life.

I was literally blown away by the demonic sound released by my beauty from the very first turn of the key!!! At idle, you hear an imposing, deep, raspy sound without being unbearable. As soon as you accelerate up the revs, the sound gains amplitude and becomes simply exhilarating! The Porsche sound is totally respected! The little extra? When you lift off the throttle, you hear amplified overrun sounds! Pure happiness! You become addicted to this sound! As soon as you switch off the engine, you only want one thing: to start it again! With the original PSE, I was able to connect the valve opening to the button on the centre console. A little extra to respect the Porsche original. Once the valves are closed, I can confirm that my beauty behaves perfectly. You'd think no modification had been made. It's real comfort: you remain master of the place and the moment when you want your devilish frog to express itself. Otherwise, I'm not sure the neighbours would accept hearing it in the middle of the night from miles away :) ..... In short, an investment totally worthy of the pleasure it gives! Hats off Mr. SCART! Safe travels fellow Porsche fans, and run to Martin with your eyes closed! :) PS: the sound you hear in the videos gives you an idea. However, it's nothing compared with hearing it in real life.
After 4 years of using my car with the original (voiceless) tailpipes, I decided to redo the entire system: from the catalytic headers to the outlet. The welcome is top, with a team of passionate craftsmen (the parts are made on site). The visual result is simply perfect and will obviously age much better than the original parts. In terms of sound, with the valves closed, I get a much more present sound that nevertheless remains "discreet", it keeps the characteristics of the original sound while improving it, making the 997 much more alive. With the valves open, it's another universe: at startup the car lets out a totally exhilarating VRAAAM. When driving, below 3000/4000 rpm the sound is cavernous, very deep in the low end but never becoming deafening. Higher in the revs the noise becomes demonic and addictive, leading me to use the PDK's manual mode to enjoy it to the fullest. In my opinion, the absolute must remains driving through tunnels with a pull from 4,000 rpm to go to the rev limiter. In short, I found a new 911 with more punch and a sound beyond anything I have been able to try. And of course I received congratulations from my neighbors, fans of fine machinery, for this investment! Read more

During the lockdown I phoned Martin SCART for information and to reassure myself about the choice of giving vocal cords back to my beauty. A month later I was on the road to Goussainville. The mechanic's welcome was unprecedented. As if we had known each other for years. The removal and refitting were done with a master's hand. A professional like you'd like to see more often in the CPs (workshops). When it was started, an extraordinary sound came out of this flat 6. I ended up with the smile of a kid who had just been given his first console. And what can I say about Martin SCART, who even called me on the way back to apologize for not having been able to say goodbye when I left and to ask how I felt about it. In the end, this valved exhaust reinforces my decision to keep this car, which has become magical for me. Read more

I hesitated for a long time over this valved exhaust given the amount of money it represents, but I let myself be tempted. Great result, with the valves closed, the sound is relaxing and even roars a little in the revs. With the valves open, it's another car with a demonic sound, all controlled by the original PSE button on the console. Bravo to the whole team and to the mechanic I had in Goussainville at Martin Scart's, who was super nice and very professional from start to finish, showing me all the steps of the fitting. Read more

For the first anniversary of the arrival of my 997 GTS convertible I had decided, after reading a lot of comments on various forums, to offer him the only thing he lacked: a real "voice" (the PSE having a timbre a little too slender for my taste). Barely out of the deconfinement and after exchanging with Martin Scart by email and phone (thank you for the availability and the precious advices), I therefore went to Goussainville. Arrived on site at 8:00 am, welcome by Christophe "the" editing specialist (it seems that Martin thinks he can do the whole operation blindfolded, that's to say) who patiently explained to me all that he was going to do and allowed me to take multiple photos of the operation. Comfortably installed to be able to work on my side during the intervention, I left shortly after 3:00 p.m. On the way back, already the impression of being "elsewhere", in another car. But the 35km that bring me home (suburbs, periphery and co) not being ideal to make an impression I waited the following weekend and a stroll towards the south of Ile-de-France, hood open to give me a real opinion. And indeed I can now confirm to you all that I read of positive on this exhaust of madness. A just phenomenal, captivating sound that takes you to the guts and puts a huge smile on your lips. The valve system makes it possible to reduce, of course, if necessary, but at a stable speed, with the valves open, in my opinion we can make long journeys without discomfort. So a big thank you to Martin and Christophe for their advice, their availability, their kindness and for this magical sound! Read more

But why did I wait so long for my valved exhaust? My 997 sings like never before, it's a killer. Its roar is raspy as soon as you give it gas. A few light backfire-type pops on deceleration. In short, pure happiness even at low speed. You even get back a bit of the sound of the old air-cooled ones, so you really keep the Porsche sound. Bravo Martin Scart! And a great fitting at your partner Atelier 911 in Bordeaux (Mérignac). It's an investment I recommend to you, I feel like I've changed Porsche. With the valve closed you get the old sound back. What a pleasure, this magic button that completes my row of switches. Read more

Owner for 2 years of a 997 S Phase 2 coupe chosen after a long search regarding which options to go for (in particular the famous PSE), I finally gave in and decided to fit the Scart valved exhaust. A diehard fan of originality, I hesitated far too long, fortunately encouraged by the availability and kindness of Martin Scart, always very warm on the phone. I received the item last week and did the installation this weekend. And now Wowwwww!!! A new magic button has appeared in the car: it sings with a whole range of variations, in particular with a new pleasure of changing gears manually. It's the exhaust this car deserves. I should point out that the "valve closed" mode lets you get back a discreet car, noticeably identical to the original. In short, this Scart is magic, essential to rediscover sensations even when driving at a reasonable speed, nothing like the original PSE. Thank you to Martin Scart for making this diabolical technology available to enthusiasts like us. Read more

Since buying my first Porsche, a 997 2S PDK, a year and a half ago, the only thing missing was sound. To fix that, I chose the valved SCART exhaust. Impeccable welcome and handling last Monday by a team of enthusiasts. Workshop tour by Martin SCART, with many explanations. Everything is made on site. I was able to settle in comfortably to work while being notified of the key stages of the operation. Then comes the moment to start the engine. And there, with the valves open, a very pleasant raspy noise fills the workshop. Then comes the short test drive on Martin's usual route, passing under the Francilienne and through a small village to really show off the new equipment. With the valves closed, the sound seems slightly rounder than the original. With the valves open at low revs it's a delight, without the Porsche PSE cut between 45 and 75 km/h, and at the top it's divine. Raspy at the bottom, and more and more metallic towards the top. In short, to be consumed without moderation at all revs. Moreover, at steady speed it stays quiet, with no resonance in the cabin. So, perfect, including for motorway trips. The original strip replaced by a new strip with the Porsche PSE button, allowing the valves to be closed or opened, brings a seriousness and an irreproachable quality to the installation. And to finish, polishing of the exhaust tips for the best effect! Back home in pouring rain but with the valves permanently open and a huge grin. A big thank you therefore to Martin Scart and his whole team for the work done! Go there with complete confidence! Read more

2009 Cabriolet, installed a central valved module on the good advice of Martin in person at Villanueva in Bayonne, with a PSE button in the center console. I always drive with it open, and even on the motorway it is very pleasant at a steady speed. A different car and a different pleasure to hear the raspy engine and even revel in it when downshifting at low speed... Thank you Scart and thank you to the installer Christophe. Read more

Finally, the fitting of a valved SCART on my 997 Phase 2. After a month, it's nothing but happiness, the pleasure of having a Porsche with sound again. A deep and raspy sound, a real race engine. Go there without any bad surprises, because the welcome from the team and Martin SCART is not a legend. Well done to you.
First Porsche purchase, a 997 Carrera S Phase 1 with a Scart exhaust with disconnectable valves, pure happiness. I currently own a 997 Carrera 4S PDK Phase 2 with the same exhaust, a bewitching sound. The flat 6 already has a sound recognisable among so many others, but here it's metamorphosed, especially when you drive with the windows down on small village roads lined with houses, the lingering echo is diabolical and it isn't deafening in the cabin. On top of that, Martin Scart is very responsive (email sent, answer within the hour). PURE HAPPINESS, KEEP IT UP AND THANK YOU AGAIN FOR WHAT YOU BRING US Read more

Congratulations on the installation of the famous Scart valved system + PSE button + air filter, the result is really good but it is nothing compared to the pleasure of being welcomed by a team of enthusiasts. Workshop tour, following all the stages of removal + refitting + test drive....
I've just had a valved exhaust fitted to my 997 4S Cab Phase 2 at Martin Scart's, when I had a PSE. I got back a new car with a wonderfully explosive sound while keeping the function of the PSE button on the dashboard. I'm really delighted with the result, especially with the "brushed stainless steel" tailpipes. I arrived on site in the morning in the middle of the team's briefing and after a good coffee I was treated to a tour of the workshops by the wizard Martin Scart himself. The team is very professional and takes real pleasure in explaining the different stages of exhaust manufacturing. The operation lasting about 4 hours, I was able to settle in comfortably to work, and I was alerted by the technician in charge of my car for the key stages of the operation. A real treat to see your car from a new angle. In short, you'll have understood that entrusting your car to Martin Scart guarantees joy and good humour as soon as the PSE button, now magic, is engaged, and especially in Cab mode. A big thank you to the whole team for the work done but also for Martin's kind gesture at the end of the job... Discover it for yourselves! Read more

Fitted what is for me the ultimate SCART equipment for a 997 S Phase 2: catalytic converter headers, valved exhaust and BMC air filter (and matte black tailpipes for the pleasure of the eyes, my S being white and black). With the valves open it's total madness. 105 dB with a sound that goes from low to high notes thanks to the exhaust. Plus a whole range of growls and crackles thanks to the catalytic converter headers! This car is alive, a real animal! I only drive with the windows down and the PDK in manual to practise my scales going up and down the revs. You can play with the sound to make the exhausts explode, and it even treats me to phenomenal, sometimes unexpected, bangs! If you're passionate about car sound you need the full set, it's inimitable! I even out-sound an Aventador. And it stays calm with the valves off for my wife. In short, for enthusiasts I recommend it. A 5000€ investment admittedly but I don't regret my purchase for a second and it makes me even less inclined to switch to another car. Read more

Since buying my Porsche 997 2 years ago, all I was missing was an exhaust worthy of the name. After lots of research on the internet, reviews and videos, my choice quickly settled on M Scart's valved system, combining a "civilized" sound for a bit of discretion and for my wife, and a demonic sound for pure pleasure at startup, on every acceleration, on every downshift... in short, on every use. After talking with you by phone, M Scart, I opted for the sport exhaust button on the dashboard. Once on site, I was offered various "commercial" options; I chose the sport filters and polishing of the exhaust tips for the best effect! After a week and several uses, I am delighted with my Christmas present and can't wait to drive with the top down on sunny days... Read more

For 3 years I've been very happy with the Scart exhaust on my 2010 997 Turbo S Cab. I've just passed the technical inspection without any problem, which reassures me in my choice. The sound is perfect.
The great welcome is not a legend... real exhaust professionals who don't stop at simply fitting their exhaust; perfectionists in their field. I had a valved exhaust installed on my 997 4S 3.8 Ph2. 2 months later, I'm still just as impressed by the sound quality and the grin it gives you with every acceleration; I'm also surprised to sometimes drive with the valves closed, as the sound is very interesting too, with a sound close to the original but more metallic... 2 cars in one; depending on your mood: a GT3 (valves open) or a sporty Carrera (valves closed). A big BRAVO to the whole SCART team Read more

I had an exhaust installed on my 997 because the original sound, even with the PSE, was too weak (a flaw of this model). Now it makes the sound of a Porsche worthy of the name. I'm very satisfied with the team's work because I was able to keep the PSE control button. Without a remote. The managers give very good advice. Good value for money. I highly recommend. Thanks to the whole team!! Chris from Tours Read more

Installation of a 200-cell catalytic converter + valved silencer assembly with switch control, done directly at the SCART company. Wow, for a turbo, it now sends out the watts. Pure happiness. With the valves closed it is almost identical to the original exhaust, but with the valves open it changes everything. A much more raspy sound comes out of the whole system, right from the lowest revs, the low notes are out for the greatest delight of my ears and those of others, but that's not all, it grows in the revs, a real treat. I am really very satisfied with this installation, done with great professionalism. A big thank you to Messrs. SCART and DELMAS for their good advice, as well as to their colleagues for this fine work. It was really worth driving 650 km to have this equipment fitted directly at their place, and above all what a joy to make the return trip with such a sound, great. And to think that I hesitated to do it, now I mostly regret not having done it sooner. Frankly I strongly recommend that you take the plunge, it is really worth investing in this type of installation because you will switch to another world and that is a thrill. Nothing but happiness.

Owner of a 997 Phase 2 PDK cabriolet, I felt that the sound of the flat 6 did not bring out the aggressiveness of the engine, which was somewhat stifled by the original exhaust. After adding the "SCART" flap system, the car was transformed by a crackling sound from startup, once warm, and above all in sport mode, lyrical flights to my great delight. Thanks also for the tour of the premises and the kindness of the people who welcomed me. Jr jais Read more

I had an X-pipe, connection box and a Sport air filter fitted last Friday (23rd) and the result is all that I'd hoped for. I wanted to keep the original PSE but improve on it and get rid of the problem of it cutting out. And it makes the difference - I now have a Porsche. If I hadn't had the PSE I wouldn't have thought twice about fitting a complete Scart line .... that'll be for next time! Christophe, who fitted the X and connected up the box, does a really professional job - you have nothing to fear either for your car or for its interior. He's a great guy too! Thanks. Cyrille will give you all the info you need by mail, as he did for me. If you're interested he'll give you a guided tour of the workshop too. They're a great team who love what they do and the end result is perfect. Thanks guys. Emmanuel. Read more

Just to let you know how I got on since having a new voicebox fitted at the SCART workshop. Like many, I'm very disappointed by the Porsche PSE for the 997.2. I already knew about SCART exhausts (I had an Ultima Recital on a 3.6L 996) so naturally I turned to the SCART team for a SCART with valves. The contact was very friendly and then the guided tour of the workshop confirms that you're amongst professionals who are passionate about the work they do and doing it well. Being able to watch the exhaust being fitted with my own eyes with precious tips along the way was an additional bonus!!! And the result .... a massive grin all the way home !!!! It's a huge thrill, a gentle melody, round, more or less boisterous depending on whether the valves are open or closed. I took the option of keeping the original switch on the dashboard - brilliant. Just one last thing - accelerating out of the toll station, pdk mode, in manual, SCART valves open .... devilish !!!! THANK YOU to the whole SCART team - keep up the good work. Read more

Just one last thing - accelerating out of the toll station, pdk mode, in manual, SCART valves open .... devilish !!!! THANK YOU to the whole SCART team - keep up the good work.
After some thought and the sound advice of SCART, I decided to make an appointment for the installation on my 997 Phase 2. Great welcome with a tour of the workshops, you quickly realize you are with passionate professionals. After getting the car back, the result is more than positive, it's no longer the same car, I have a sports car. Thanks again to Cyrille, who gave up some of his rest time to make the car available to me for the holidays. Read more

MKII 997 C4S - exhaust with valves + filter. The welcome and intervention by the team were impecable. The work to connect the valves to the original PSE switch was carried out with great care. It's a great piece of acoustic workmanship and beautifully made. The best of both worlds. Valves closed, the result is subtle with a slightly rounder sound than the original. Valves open at low revs it's a delight, put your foot down and it's bewitching, then when you go through a tunnel ... what can I say ... Wow!! I was worried about having an exhaust that was too noisy, but it isn't. This exhaust does what the original just doesn't do and it's very versatile depending on how and where you drive. Well done!!!

Installation a few weeks ago by DMA in Nanterre (excellent service from Nicolas Brévune) of a SCART sport silencer set with valves and switch control. A substantial investment but justified by the great quality of the installation: sound level with the valves closed almost identical to the stock exhaust, that is to say very discreet, and very beautiful music with the valves open, with a deep sound that noticeably grows toward the higher notes in the revs. No vibration even at constant speed over a long period. Nice work as always with Scart. Thank you Nicolas Read more

An exhaust with valves with a guttural sound in replacement for a PSE. The pleasure of driving has been multiplied several times thanks to its deep, round sound. Nobody can be bothered by the sound when the valves are closed, and then when the valves are open the sound is exceptional. To any of you out there that are still hesitating, hesitate no longer!

Safely back home in Belgium.
What a sound! In manual the exhaust sings non-stop.
Beats the PSE hands down
1/ From the first phone call to SCART until the last handshake to say goodbye after the installation of a valved system, the team was perfect, with everyone's passion taking precedence over commerce. Special mention to Christophe (the installation pro) and Guillaume. 2/ The "before" / "after" is exceptional. I was hesitating, and today I have no regrets. My first 911 finally has the sound that has haunted my imagination forever. Don't hesitate to contact me if you want the details. With pleasure! Read more

A huge thank you to Mr Martin SCART, his sales manager Mr Guillaume BEAUMONT, his team and his mecanic who fitted the exhaust and advised me to replace my original filters and tail-pipes. The result is spectacular with the valves open and discrete with the valves closed. Even with the valves closed the sound is remarkable. The combination XPIPE, VALVES, SPORT AIR FILTERS, MATT BLACK TAIL-PIPES, REMOVAL OF THE SOUND CUT-OFF AT 75 Kms/H, AND CONNECTION TO THE ORIGINAL SWITCH. I have no regrets about the cost as the result is there. Once again thank you to the SCART team. I would recommend this combination to all 997 phase II owners. Read more

Extremely disappointed by the original sound of the standard exhaust on my 997 Phase 2, I quickly decided to have something more "serious" installed. After combing through the forums, the same conclusion keeps coming back: Scart is the best of the best.
I was able to have the famous valved X-Pipe installed near me, at 45-Autosport, with the button cleverly placed in the armrest. When the valves are closed, the sound is very close to stock with just a bit more amplitude. When the valves are open... how can I put it?? It's the apotheosis! A nice raspy sound that gurgles at low revs and a bestial, metallic sound higher in the revs. A massacre !!
I finally have a "real" Porsche, more effective than the most powerful antidepressant!

My GTS Cab was beautiful and powerful but, clearly, despite the original PSE, something was really missing. So I decided to take a day off and make a pilgrimage to Goussainville. Living in the Eure, I found myself in front of the workshop around 9:00 after two hours on the road. I won't talk about the great welcome I received (coffee with the team, a meeting room made available so I could work, smiles all around, enthusiasm over the color of my car, passionate discussions about everything with an engine, etc...), I won't talk about the excellent value for money of the service, and I won't talk either about all the technical skills I met. I'll just say that during the whole drive back, whatever the position of the valves, I smiled like a kid for 150 km while driving and I was proud of my car.... now nothing is missing anymore. I'm waiting for the claim form, because this type of treatment should be reimbursed by social security. Conclusion, don't hesitate for a second !!!!! Read more

After 150 km, I arrive at Goussainville at 8:30 am for the fitting of the SCART system on my 997 Phase II C4S. The mechanic's welcome is cordial and very friendly. He gives me a tour of the workshop as soon as I arrive. At 3:00 pm, it's fitted, a short drive on my usual route and there I finally hear the flat 6 sing at all revs. No more PSE cut-off! And with the valves open, pure happiness... it sings when you accelerate and it's a good compromise, especially with a cabriolet. Thanks to the SCART team (the mechanic and Guillaume) for their friendly, warm welcome and their explanations. Porsche friends, go to SCART!!!!!!! Read more

Hello, unable to go to Goussainville, I undertook the installation of a SCART exhaust on my 997 GT3 (I have a pit). Very easy to fit, less than two hours. Congratulations to the team, in particular to Mr. Beaumont, very available for any information, very "customer attitude", attentive to the customer. My thanks also to the fitter who gave me some valuable advice. For enthusiasts who want to make this swap on a GT3, there is no need to remove the rear bumper skirt, the operation can be done without any problem. I feel like I have changed cars, the sound is fantastic, whether with the valves closed or open. Raspy sound at idle, and lyrical flight in the revs..!!! FABULOUS... A bit of humor.... The little men in blue will hear me coming from afar to get ready to intercept me at 90 km/h... to see the "Beauty" of course, because respect for the rules obliges... And what a product..!!? Superb quality, a real jewel. Thanks again, and I can only encourage future customers who hesitate to take the plunge.... Don't change anything, bravo again to the team. Very cordially, Jean Charles D Read more

A big thanks to Mr Flandin at Swissracing who fitted my SCART exhaust (Valves + X pipe) along with a lighter flywheel and a sport clutch. My 997 4s 2nd generation was transformed after these modifications. The car has become lively and reactive at acceleration. The sound is simply magnificent
Not only does the silencer give me complete satisfaction, but thanks to it I did not sell my GT3, which has soared in value, and above all for the pleasure it gives me in the Corsican mountains where its flat 6 finally resonates. Thank you thank you 😀😀😀😀😀 Joseph
2nd generation 997 fitted with scart with valves and yesterday with Xpipe + bmc filters A unique sound, you'd think you were in a cup, even valves closed it's improved the sound of the exhaust. Don't hesitate it's well worth the price which is reasonable and a work of art signed Martin Scart!
A 911 born voiceless like all Phase II 997s; a quick look around the forums shows you that the only surgeon capable of turning it into a diva is Martin Scart and his staff of enthusiasts. Early morning welcome with the smiles of the whole team; coffee; tour; didactic explanations for the neophyte that I am; at the end of the day a little test drive with the master at the wheel, with a description of the sonic result Read more

I was very frustrated with the sound of my 2nd gen 997 Targa 4s. After a trip to VODIFF (Eric DONART - ex workshop manager with Porsche) I found my vehicle transformed! the sound is really powerful at idle and as soon as the revs rise the cavalry takes off. Sheer pleasure, I can't do without it now!
I didn't have the PSE and the 997.2 are essentially voiceless. Having read loads and loads of feedbacks on various forums, one name kept cropping up: SCART. So I dropped my car off with Mr and Mrs Scart, very pleasant, then the next day I picked up a different car... It now has loads of character, with a full, finely tuned sound. There is absolutely no discomfort when cruising when the valves are either open or closed!! My thanks to all the team!! Read more

Hello, I bought a phase II 997 a little over a month ago and, despite a stock PSE which is fun at first, you quickly feel something is missing... After reading quite a lot of comments on this site, I opted for an X-Pipe system with sport air filters (on M SCART's advice). After a few outings, the pleasure is even greater... What a sound!!! You wouldn't want to stop driving, the noise is so pleasant. A big THANK YOU to Martin SCART for his welcome and availability, and to his whole team. Read more

We've fitted these exhaust on 5 different Porsches, the customers have been very satisfied with the results, on every level the prize goes to the RIVA silencer installed on a 944 SC 3.0L (1982) 10 out of 10 they're like a piece of jewelry, the welding is perfect the stainless steel high quality really great, hand made - I take my hat off to the artists.

Hi I wanted to say a huge thanks to Mr Scart and his team for the sport exhaust system they made and which I have just fitted on my 2nd gen 997, the truth is, the sound given by the original exhaust not being particularly sporty for these cars, I was looking for a good, cost efficient alternative which I found with RS TUBE and which enabled me to retain the original exhaust and yet gave me a really enchanting sound almost the sound of a GT3. Mr Scart will even give you a call over the weekend just to check how you get on with the installation (you do need to be a mechanic to install it) Thank you to Martin Scart and his team Read more

I had the Scart Valved system installed on my 911 Carrera S PDK and, on MS's advice, I took the opportunity to have the tips polished (like new) and the air filters replaced with BMC sport ones. The result is there! I feel like I changed cars: the sound is what you expect from a sports car, going from a deep rasp at idle to something more metallic but still round in the revs, at the limiter it's superb and the gear changes in sport mode become bewitching. But you don't need to go to the limit to enjoy it, as soon as you put it under load something happens!! All this without ever being aggressive in the cabin. Also worth noting that even the sound in valves-closed mode is superb, nothing like before, without acoustic fatigue. Finally I'd add the professionalism and welcome of MS and his team, special mention for Christophe, they are top. It breathes passion, with humility. If you want to relive a new love story with your 911, don't hesitate, pleasure guaranteed! You will finally get to know it.... From the turn of the key you enter another world. Read more

Hi. I have a 2nd generation 997 4s and was pretty disapointed with the sound. So I went along to listen to a GTS fitted with the Porsche PSE and once again I was disappointed with the sound (I wanted to keep with a full Porsche line in order to have an authentic Porsche sound). Quick call to Martin SCART who advised me to try the valve system. I went round to AIX les Milles to hear a 997 4 S, and I decided to go for it. After 2 months running I am just as pleased with the sound (deep and hoarse) and my Porsche friends marvel at it. Thanks to Martin SCART, I congratulate him for his dedication, his skill and his expertise Read more

A pure-bred Manceau, I've been brought up with the sound of cars (24h) and in particular of Porsche. After a humming 964 I have, for 2 years now, a 997 C4S. An easy and pleasing car with PDK... However compared with the PSE woeful and disappointing !!!! So I contacted Martin Scart who took me through what he could do. A discussion which was in-depth and enjoyable and which seemed to amuse him, all of which persuaded me to commit myself to changing the "musical system" of the car: 200 cell Scart sport manifold + X pipe and air sport filters. We kept the original silencers for the valves ! Good grief, how beautiful those Scart parts are, the precision of the fitting, and the perfection of the adjustments. A real artist and not just a mechanic/ pipe-maker .... doubled up with a formidable ear for music. AT LAST THE SOUND...! Plenty, really deep at low revs, rising at mid-revs with fabulous sharps notes. Without any agressivity or ungainly overtones. Martin Scart is the true conductor of an orchestra of mechanical musical instruments which he has created. Congratulations, it's a permenant delight and at last a REAL SOUND which purrs throughout the interior of the car.... Thanks to you Martin Scart and to your team for their top notch expertise. I will also never forget the phone call from Martin one Saturday morning just to see how I my return journey had been... An incredible contact for a quality service and sumptuous result. I take my hat off to the team and to Martin Scart. D.P. Read more

I was thrilled with my 997 GTS Cabriolet, but the original sport exhaust was a real disappointment. It was nothing like the PSE I'd had on my last 997 gen 1, which was great. I wanted an exhaust that gave me a sound, but a genuine flat 6 sound. I hesitated a while and then I went for Martin Scart's system with valves. I also liked the idea of not replacing the whole line but keeping as much as possible to the original. I just had one fear, that there would be enough sound for my taste. The result is surprising !!! I am so pleased, it's a huge bonus. Valves open the sound is fantastic, I hadn't expected that, it's well over and above my expectations. The sound is cavernous, powerful.... At full throttle its bestial and at low revs it purrs. The added benefit of the valves, which is really good, is that you can be really discreet if you need to be. The remote control is good quality. To sum up, the contact, the welcome and the workmanship were perfect Read more

Fitted by a expert who knows his job. The sound is magic with the sport exhaust and discreet when the valves are closed; A pure joy
I was torn between an exhaust with or without valves, so I called beforehand and opted for the version without valves (assuming, among other things, that they would be open all the time anyway :)). I fitted the exhaust easily and after 500 km I have no regrets, the compromise is just perfect. At a steady speed it's relatively discreet, and under acceleration / deceleration it's... a treat! Experience makes the difference, and when I had a question during installation, one phone call and I had the answer I needed in 2 minutes. I highly recommend Scart for their professionalism, availability and product quality! Read more

A handmade all-stainless-steel jewel case, for a stunning sound result on a 991! Absolutely no relation to the sport exhaust offered as an option by Porsche. We are in another world, that of the racetrack: at low revs, in the rush upward or on the way down through the revs! I kept in mind my 2 Carlsson and Brabus lines on two V8s (AMG) and never thought I would one day find MY NEW SOUND REFERENCE on a Flat Six. Practical too, the very discreet switch on the steering wheel, which lets you get back to a "stock" sound level, just a bit more metallic. Bravo to the team, and thank you for the very instructive tour of the manufacturing and fitting workshops. Thierry Read more

A big thanks to Martin and all of his team for the professionalism and kindness with which they greeted us at Goussainville. (whatsmore the price is not exorbitant compared with other brands) The sound is superb, just the right, without being excessive. He prepared two conversions: one which was fairly classic for him a 991 Targa 4S 1st generation and the second which was a first for Martin Scart a GT3RS 991 and which by the way he found fantastic (I might even have been able to sell it to him!) It's melody is a pleasure to the ear (the car radio is for sale totally useless!!!), only the air cooling system overrides this concert, notably the famous 2,7 RS. Once again a big thank you and if you would like more information about my wonderful experience with the Martin SCART team don't hesitate to get in touch. Read more

Having already equipped my 996 4S about ten years ago, it's now the turn of my 991 4S to enjoy a SCART sport exhaust (without valves) what joy exceptional melody as I accelerate and a discreet deep note at low revs. You can go for an exhaust without valves, there's no problem and it's cheaper!!!
Hello, I've just had a Scart valved line fitted with 2 dual outlets on my 991
Superb line

I picked up a new 911 when I left Scart. The one thing my 911 Turbo was missing... the sound. Martin Scart grafted it on for me, a crafted sound, powerful in valves-open mode and as discreet as you like in valves-closed mode, a pure delight. A quality exhaust, a very professional team, undeniable know-how. A big thank you. Laurent G Read more

Hello, I would like to give you some feedback concerning the installation of a Scart exhaust on my 991 4S. My 991 had a weak spot...no sport exhaust. I know quite a bit about the original Porsche sport exhausts as I've had several 4S and GTS with the origianl sport exhaust. But this time...having taken a good look around I chose a Scart exhaust which has the reputation of being reliable and French-made. Concerning the reliability: I received the parcel on the Friday and decided to install it on the Saturday. During the installation...a doubt prevented me from going any further! I decide to try my luck, I call Guillaume on his mobile and leave a message. Within the hour Martin Scart in person called back to answer my question and resolved the problem! Not bad!!! Concerning the exhaust itself, for the first month, I was a little skeptical as I felt that the original Porsche sport exhaust had a better sound. On this point, Guillaume and Martin called me the week after the installation to find out how everything had gone (not bad either...) I shared my impression...They replied that I should be patient and wait a little for the "beast" to settle in. True enough, the beast revealed itself. What a bluff! Just crazy...It sings, it crackles, as soon as you accelerate, the sound is mind-blowing without being deafening and above all without a feeling of resonance within the car (really important). In short, a pure pleasure well over and above the original Porsche version. Just for a little anecdote, now and again I turn on the Spa Francorchamps circuit. At the most recent Porsche Days several people asked me where that beautiful sound came from...So don't hesitate, give yourself a treat, you won't regret it. Read more

This 991S is my 7th 911 and I've tested all the models from the 2,4 to the 997 GT3 including the 993 (which already had a SCART at the time...). I'd recently been disappointed by the sound of a 2nd generation 997 when I met my 991S with an enchanting PSE. The valves, well they're fun for 5 minutes, but I quickly realised that I just left them...open of course. So I installed a "Sport" exhaust without valves by SCART and there....an ecstatic sound. A deep cavernous sound but not overbearing at a steady engine speed, and then a real GT3 at high revs...what a thrill! It feels as if I've got a V8 in the back!!! Read more

Happy owner of a Porsche 991 S, and new to Porsche, I was thrilled with my vehicle. Road-holding, sensations, accelerations, equipment... perfect. I remember when on my first visit to the Porsche showroom, the salesman sat me down for at least 5 minutes in the car and almost immediately turned on the ignition so that I could hear the sound of the flat 6 echoing off the walls of the showroom. I signed. A 911 sells itself by its sound... Only several months later, I must admit to have been very frustrated by a feeling that the sound was muffled, lacking, lifeless. Wait for the tunnels and lower the windows to "hear something"... So I called Martin Scart. I came across someone who was enthusiastic, a respectful sound wizard, for beautiful machines and sensations. I left my car in his expert hands for a few hours. He gave me back a new 911 ! it's not the same car, it growls, it digs deep, roars, goes off into those high notes then comes back to the deep glouglous, and the magic of when the stick-shift automatically gives "a ittle bit of gas" still gives me a thrill. What a car! The valve system he installed also means that I don't wake up the neighbourhood, nor does it do my head in on long distances, as you can put it in "mute" mode at the flick of a button. Wow ! Martin you are a magician. Read more

After 500 km with a VALVED EXHAUST (without sport cat), I find Scart's know-how again in this exhaust, which magnifies the sound of the flat 6 (admittedly a bit muffled by the turbos). My GTS has regained a sound that does honor to its engine.
Phenomenal!!! My 991 Turbo S seemed voiceless to me, you could only hear the turbos' whoosh, and even then only at full load. With the Scart exhaust it's a whole different score, the recital begins with a very deep and low sound at idle, then becomes higher and more metallic as the rev counter needle soars, to become furious as it approaches the red zone. On deceleration you hear explosions (in Sport mode) that can crack like gunshots, and then at the very end you can hear the whistle of the turbines very clearly... When I tell you it's a real recital, it is one!!! Treat yourself without any hesitation Read more

It was without hesitation that I turned to Scart to give a bit of a voice to my 991 Turbo. Yes, because from the factory it lacks a little volume. The welcome, the people, the presentation, the explanations... everything is top notch. The whole team really does their utmost to satisfy the customer. I'll skip the details of the installation, which went without any problem because you can see they're used to it and know what needs to be removed to do a clean and rigorous installation. First turn of the key!!!! WOWWWWWWW The car is transformed, it has found what it was missing. The melody. What a treat when you lift off the throttle in sport mode to hear those burbles. Back home my son was waiting for me impatiently. "I wasn't expecting that," he said with a smile, eyes and ears wide open. "It's great, it really makes a super sound." Well, there you go. It's done. I think that later on, Martin will have a new customer ;-) Thanks again Martin LASERIC Read more

When I bought my cabriolet 991-2 Turbo S, the only downside was the sound. So, following the advice I was given at a show in Geneva, I had a Techart exhaust fitted. I was pleased with it at first, I found it better than the original. But with time and when I heard it along side other exhausts I realised that despite the Techart quality, the sound still wasn't up to it, particularly when the engine was loaded/ overloaded (only active when in sport plus mode). So once again I went in search of a new exhaust, this time more powerful and tailor made. I checked out the European, US and Asian markets (shows, internet, blogs etc...) and as is often the case when you look far and wide, the answer was right under my nose ... right there in front of me at the Porsche meetings ... here in France ... SCART!!! Since the SCART exhaust has been fitted, (with switch, which makes it easy to adapt) I am thrilled. The sound is melodious and more importantly has more volume, particularly when loaded. When I start up the 911 TS and go for a spin with the roof down, I just have a huge grin on my face! Well done Martin Scart and thanks to the whole team for an excellent and professional job. Eric M.

I changed cars! Fitting the 200-cell catalytic converter and a silencer completely changed the behavior of the engine. The torque is there 1500 rpm lower, it changes everything! The sound is powerful without being too loud, and you adjust the volume... with your right foot! On top of that, Martin Scart redid a weld under warranty even though I bought this equipment second-hand; if that's not top after-sales service, I don't know what is! My valiant 986 S has gotten wings! Bravo and thank you. Read more

Owner of a Boxster 986 2.7, I was driving with a smile, but since yesterday, how can I put it, I feel like I'm dreaming!! The cause? A Scart sport silencer. At the first start, a bit worried because the volume is much more present, but I quickly learned to play with the accelerator to discover all the nuances. A treat!! I'll spend my time driving...

I picked up the car and quite frankly I thought I was dreaming the first time I accelerated. It's just that now I have nothing to envy the GT3! Added to which I get to enjoy it in open-top. Honestly, it's fabulous. The engine is fierce, it makes a husky sound at low revs, then shriller and shriller. I drove for virtually 48 hours non stop. And there was no need to go over the 6000 rpm. You can stay on at 3000 rpm and still have the impression that your driving a super sports car, its briliant. A thousand thanks! It's well worth the price. Its made to measure, a work of art to someone who loves to hear the sound of an engine. See you soon. I can only praise you. Read more

Very satisfied, the sound of my Boxster is incredible!!! Congratulations to the whole team for their professionalism.
Hello, on Thursday 16 December the big day arrived, after making the trip from Normandy I entrusted my vehicle to the workshop at 8:00 in the morning. The all-stainless-steel sport exhaust was already ready on the workbench with all its accessories. Then came the introduction to Mr. Martin Scart and the fitting team, who offered us coffee and kindly answered our questions about replacing the exhaust on the 2004 Boxster 986S 3.2L. In fact the operation was carried out without having to remove the rear bumper and the wheels! So much the better, and it underlines the solid experience of the fitters with this job on this model. About an hour and a quarter later, which is not much, the operation was finished and then came the starting of the vehicle, and I was stunned! The fitter had predicted that I would leave with another car, and the first turn of the key offers an indescribable vocalization, and this multiplies exponentially once at temperature, the sound is angry with a melody typical of the flat six that I am discovering, and it leaves me speechless, it's an indescribable emotion, it's fabulous! Then the boss Mr. Scart carried out a road test to validate the work, then a second test after the in-house welder detected and redid a weld point on a heat shield plate on one of the catalytic converters. The craftsman work seems to be carried out in a family atmosphere. But the most surprising thing for me came on the road back to Normandy, I no longer recognize my car, the surges in revs combined with the 6-speed manual gearbox boost the 3.2 L engine as if a turbo had been grafted on! The gain in acceleration is such that I feel like I have a short-ratio transmission. The gain in power is truly noticeable as the revs climb. It's quite simple, before I only heard the engine sing from 4000 rpm, whereas now the vocalization coming from the exhaust is present from idle up to maximum revs. My passenger, a friend, compared my vehicle to his 1200 cc motorbike under acceleration! Hats off to this company, which moreover worked relentlessly for seven years of studies on the development to perfect this sport exhaust fitted on the Boxster 986. Thank you to all the members of SART EXHAUSTS, Yannick. Read more

It's finally D-day, I left very early to cover the 200 km that separate me from the workshop. I arrive at 7:45 and am immediately warmly welcomed by Christophe the fitter, who straight away explains how he will proceed. Very quickly he is joined by the workshop foreman, who shows me my exhaust that has just been made, as well as the various stations of the workshop. Martin Scart, for his part, gives me a tour of the premises with all the explanations about the stages from R&D to final assembly: Fascinating! I had hesitated for a long time before investing such a sum given the value of my Boxster 3.2S. Yet I am not disappointed, the result is stunning in its effectiveness. The complete line (header, 200cc cat and valved silencer) lets the flat 6 breathe with full lungs and the sound is as broad as the number of revs per minute. Finally, the valve system gives the best of both worlds: sporty and muted, or furious. And what a pleasure to spend a day with this team of experts and enthusiasts whose kindness is no legend!

When I picked up my vehicle I told myself I should have come sooner... A short visit to the site is a must, a discussion with the team and you quickly realize that the guys know what they are talking about. Real pros!! So I leave with my Boxster top down, from the start things speak, or rather sing. I rediscovered my vehicle, the feeling of having a GT3 in my ear. It's no longer a flat 6 but a flat 8 :-) The sound is raspy at low revs and more and more angry in the revs. No need to rev high to enjoy yourself, the slightest acceleration, even light, makes the engine purr. The little Porsche on/off button fits perfectly on the console, it's also a very useful option for not falling out with the neighbors. On the motorway with the valves closed, I was pleasantly surprised by the smoothness and quality of the sound, much more bearable than the original exhaust. I thank Martin as well as his team of enthusiasts. Safe travels to all Read more

Thanks to Martin for his availability and advice before ordering an Ultima Recital for my Cayman 987-1 (3.4 S). An extraordinary sound that brings a smile with every acceleration and shivers in every tunnel. It's perfect: fairly discreet when driving gently, furious when you open it up (a real race car sound). Highly recommended without hesitation. My only regret... not driving only in tunnels and having a hard top! Read more

Stopped by Scart this morning to have an ULTIMA RECITAL silencer installed with the dual outlet and the link pipe. Martin's welcome is very warm, and he takes the time to explain the modifications that are going to be made. The installation is done in one morning, before Martin takes the keys to check that everything works properly, ignition on and there... incredible, the car is completely transformed, the sound has absolutely nothing to do with before. It is magnificent in every respect, raspy and free at low revs, and it takes off very, very strongly from 3000 rpm (even 2500 rpm) up to 7000. If you can do it, go for it, you will not be disappointed at all. A huge thank you to Martin and his whole team, I will come back without hesitation as soon as I change Porsche. Read more

I had a valved sport silencer fitted with a BMC air filter by the SCART team a few months ago. The result is magical. The sound is very beautiful in the open position. My Boxster sings wonderfully. I have another car. Thank you for the welcome, the quality of the products and the result on my car.
A huge THANK YOU to Martin and his whole team of enthusiasts and above all professionals! I had been waiting for this day impatiently. Today, a superb line was fitted to my car (Cayman S) and the result is far above my expectations! A magnificent sound, whether at low revs with a raspy sound, or climbing in the revs... Thank you for the workshop tour and the explanations of the different stages of MAKING an exhaust from start to finish. Read more

Thanks again to the whole team of Mr. SCART for fitting a valved silencer on my 2006 Porsche Cayman S. The sound is absolutely extraordinary, it completely changes the car. With the valves closed, the sound is a bit more present than the original, but remains discreet. With the valves open, it's an absolute treat for the ears. Simply magnificent! When you're high in the revs, you feel like you're in a race car. Equipment to recommend urgently! Read more

On the 27th October 2014, I had a SCART "Ultima" sport exhaust fitted on my Boxter 987 3,4S (you can find my comments at the time lower down on this list). Personally, I was thrilled, but my wife found the sound too powerful. So, the exhaust was dismounted in 2015 and replaced by the original exhaust, however I admit this left me somewhat frustrated. In early October 2016, I met Martin Scart on his stand at the Paradis Porsche Meeting in St Tropez. Martin offered to take back the Ultima exhaust and to replace it with an exhaust with valves, for which I would only pay the difference. This was done on the 27th of October at the Goussainville workshop (exactly 2 years after the first SCART exhaust was fitted). Since then, it's a pure joy! My wife is pleased, even though the sound is ever so slightly louder than the original with the valves closed (which is a plus from my point of view). Personally, I find the sound with the valves open even better than that of the Ultima. So, a huge thank you to Martin and also to Christophe who fitted the exhaust. Read more

Having fitted a SCART to my Porsche 911 3,2 from 1985 in February 2015, I return to fit a SCART with valves for my Porsche CAYMAN and once again I am highly satisfied with the result, in 3 words "magnificent, exquisite, awesome" a chorus praise from my entourage. Thanks again to Martin SCART's team. A message for fellow porschists, get fitted out with a SCART. Thank you Martin Regards Claude Read more

I recently had Ultima Recital silencers installed on my Cayman and I must say I finally have a Porsche with a real sporty sound! As announced, at a steady speed everything is calm but more present than the original, and if you really step on it, it's magnificent, in tunnels the sound bounces off the walls, it's beautiful and impressive! I'm satisfied with the result and I'll come back to Scart for my next Porsche. :)

On a Boxster S 295hp 3.4L. Very original installation of a valved Scart at Réjean Godet's, the Lerejean workshop in Fontenay-le-Comte. Integration of the PSE button into the dashboard, same as stock (small extra to control the original PSE button) and optimized operation: starting with the valves open is possible (and that changes everything...), no more cut-out between 45 and 75 km/h. And of course a sound that is already very nice with the valves closed, a festival with the valves open, especially after 5000 rpm. I rediscovered my Boxster, and what a pleasure to hear this raspy, deep sound at the bottom and at the same time ultra-furious in the revs. Fabulous. Thank you Scart, thank you Réjean. Read more

On Boxster S 987 Phase 1:
- Sport 200cc catalytic converter headers
- silencer (if you can call it that...) Scart Ultima
- Dual 2 x 87 stainless steel tailpipes
Super sound under acceleration. And calm at cruising speed. The ideal compromise.
Installed at Vodiff - Eric Donnart (former Porsche workshop manager in Strasbourg). Top service.
Bravo Scart for this superb creation!

What talent! After much hesitation, I decided to phone SCART directly, where I got straight through to Guillaume. Passionate about their products, he "finalised" my intention to fit an Ultima on my Cayman and pointed me to one of their fitters, VODIFF in Strasbourg. 3 weeks later, the silencer was ordered, made, the appointment booked and fitted! Hats off. At VODIFF it's Eric who handles the installation. On the day he first shows me the "beast" before fitting: superb piece! The exhaust line with its carbon tailpipe is magnificent, the welds are beautiful, I was tempted to put it in my living room (lol). 3h30 later it's fitted. Start-up, a shiver when the sound reached my ears: no video could convey what you hear, what you feel, you have to be next to it to realise: you've understood, I love it!!!! Since then, I've done about 500 km and the sound has mellowed as announced. My Cayman is now a car with two faces: charisma when you don't push it and furious "the way we like it" on track. Thanks to SCART and to Guillaume for his welcome on the phone and to VODIFF for a high-end service! Read more

I found the sound of my 1st generation 987 Cayman S too subdued. having looked around to see which exhausts came out on top particularly amongst porschists I veered towards a SCART, a model with valves and remote control for the Jekyll and Hyde aspect. It was fitted by Audio star in Béziers and I must say it's a real jewel: it looks so good! and what a sound! Even with the valves closed it's nothing like the original its deeper and more powerful and what can I say about when the valves are open it's just exceptional, a real racing car sound!! I am thrilled with the result and recommend it without hesitation Read more

i found myself in a different car once the exhaust with valves was mounted with a fierce, husky sound at high revs. The mounting went perfectly and was done in a day, my only regret was not having been able to visit the workshop and watch the fitting with my car on the carlift...no regrets about the investment
I made an appointment to fit a SCART exhaust on Monday 16th November 2015. Great welcome by Guillaume and the whole team, it all starts with a visit of the workshop to see how the exhausts are made, which I really appreciated whilst my Porsche was taken in hand by the mecanic. Encounter with Martin Scart the magician very pleasant and welcoming over a coffee then we wait in the showroom. Several hours later the porsche is ready. Incredible sound it literally transforms the car I don't feel as though I'm in the same car. I am very pleased with this assembly and thanks once again to guillaume and all the team for their professionalism. I highly recommend it. Anthony Read more

Martin Scart is a magician!! Many have said it here before me and I thought they were probably exagerating but the job they've done on my exhaust proves it!! It just doesn't feel like the same car. Valves closed, it's just like any other Porsche, but, valves open, it "sings" marvoulously and it "takes your head off" when the revs reach 5500-6000!! I can't wait to finish the 500km run-in...Thanks again!! Read more

I wanted to thank the SCART team for their follow-up and the quality they provide! The sound is magnificent, I hadn't expected such a symphony from a flat 6, the videos I'd seen before making my choice don't do justice the quality of the sound, valves open, its a real racing car, it resonates just as it should with a variation according to the revs true to the Porsche flat 6 and the gas intakes with the PDK are really nice! valves closed, you're very close to the original Read more

Over and above my hopes and desires!!!! A very welcoming team, very professional. As for the rest, by that I mean the resulting symphony of my 1st generation Cayman......it's out of this world!!!!! Last Tuesday 2nd of December the cayman was fitted with 2 sport silencers with valves. Valves closed the result is virtually identical to the original but deeper so you're sure to be discreet, perfect. Once you open the valves......You feel a sort of cavernous growling...and at acceleration its magic!!!!!! almost racing!!!! quite exhilarating!!!!! beautiful piece of work and a fantastic result.... Well done for the product development, the quality workmanship and the professionalism. The tunnel at the Défense will tremble!!!! Read more

On the 27th of October 2014, I had a SCART Ultima exhaust fitted to my Boxster 987S (2008) at the Goussainville workshop. Since then, my car is transformed (the return journey to Metz was spell-binding). "Martin Scart is a Wizard" or The inexpensive way to transform your car.
Hello Martin,
A little email (a bit long, on rereading) to share my impressions after a few months of using my Cayman fitted with the Ultima Récital silencers.
As a reminder, you did the installation at the beginning of the year, around late January-early February. It is a phase 1 Cayman S and you installed the Ultima + a sport air filter and a Y connector.
As I told you the day I picked up my car with the installation, I'm delighted with the result!
I am just as delighted after several months of use. The silencers are now run in and I feel the sound is even more raspy than on the day it left your workshop.
What I also appreciate in this exhaust is being able to have sound when you want it and also being able to stay discreet when you want. It is one of the characteristics of this exhaust, which I had read in the descriptions and seen in the videos, but before the fitting I still wondered whether it might be too loud for "relaxed" trips. I saw (or rather heard) straight away during the test drive that indeed in "normal" driving, the sound is really almost the original one, and this is confirmed over time.
I also really appreciate having a sporty sound that matches the Porsche sound under hard acceleration, in tunnels (notably the A13 tunnel near the Pont de St Cloud, slightly uphill), it really makes you smile, which you already do anyway when driving this kind of toy!
So far I haven't yet had the chance to cover several hundred kilometres on the motorway with it, that will be for this summer. But on the peri-urban motorways in Île de France the sound level is perfectly fine so I'm not worried about the long trips to come.
That's the feedback! 😊
I hope you are well and that business is going well (I think so!).
Looking forward to seeing you again and thanks once more for your work! Read moreHello Martin,

SCART is at the TOP! After long research on forums and testimonials, the SCART brand kept coming up... It has now been two years since I came through their workshop -> Porsche Boxster S 987 Phase II. Simply magical, a beautiful sound, and for me a big plus for my car. Having a SCART line is a guarantee of quality, and French on top of that!! After two years I still get the same pleasure listening to it sing! Read more

Recent owner of a beautiful Boxster 987 Mk II, I've just had SCART silencers without valves fitted; IT'S A DIFFERENT CAR from 3500-4000 rpm, the sound is raspy, really sporty and really high quality, and usable every day in town or on the motorway. The build quality is magnificent, I really don't regret this purchase, a substantial one admittedly but so exhilarating, it's not just tailpipes, it's a smile pump from the moment you start it. Thanks to 911 avenue de Gémenos and Martin SCART for their advice. Read more

Hello Martin and the SCART Team, after more than 9000 km with this valved silencer, I'm still under the spell of the magical sound! With the valves closed the sound is present and lets you drive in a pleasant mode with the wind in your hair or take a long trip. With the valves open, it's a change of car with a GREAT melody, the sound is pure bliss through the revs and also on downshifts, it reinforces the playful character of the Boxster 987-2... Thank you, it's an excellent result. See you soon, Rolland Read more

With the wise advice of Martin SCART, I ordered and fitted in my garage during the March/May 2020 lockdown an ULTIMA RECITAL on my 2011 Cayman S PDK. The operation requires a little tooling and mechanical skill, a gas torch, some ingenuity to lift the vehicle and secure it, and a good dose of patience with a Dremel to grind down the connecting studs fitted between the catalytic converters and the exhaust line and crimped from the factory... I also renovated my original tailpipe: cleaning, chrome restoration, high-temperature paint on the non-chrome outer parts. In short, work, but without any modification to the vehicle... So returning to original, if desired, will be a simple formality. While removing the original silencer is quite difficult and tedious, this is not the case for fitting the new ULTIMA RECITAL supplied with all the necessary flanges, gaskets, hardware and grease: easy. Once fitted and with all tightening and fixings checked, first of all it looks beautiful under the car. Then, first turn of the key and there, BIG THRILL! This exhaust line is fabulous: discreet but present in everyday use and great as soon as the road allows, with just a slight drone at 2500 rpm under acceleration (so it doesn't last)... For the year I've been enjoying it on my drives, I still have the same pleasure of hearing the harmonics of the flat 6 going from the deep bass of a big displacement to the treble of a race car depending on engine speed and acceleration. And then in town, there are the little rumbles when you lift your foot at low revs, watch out, a beast hidden under the hood... In short, pure happiness! Thank you MR. SCART! See you soon at Montélimar. Read more

Stainless steel valved exhaust installed about 2 years ago on my Cayman S Phase 2 3.4 320 PDK... nothing but happiness!!! As soon as I'm alone on board (but not only), I drive with the flaps open, the music of the flat 6 is well "played" by the SCART, a real acoustic treat! But I really feel like I'm the conductor... PS: It's quite possible that I'll have some imitators around me Read more

When I picked up my car at Mougins Auto Sport, I could only do a short trip (dual carriageway, motorway, town and small gorges) between Mougins and St Paul de Vence and it's great, a beautiful melodious sound, angry in the revs. I was already very satisfied with the result. A few days later, I took advantage of the weekend to "break in" the silencer and I almost set off an avalanche!!! I had a blast despite the somewhat atypical weather conditions for the Côte d'Azur and the sound of the exhaust adds a real plus in terms of pleasure without being bothersome. I drove a stretch extremely well known to journalists between Gréolières and Gréolières-les-Neiges, a small, very drivable mountain road with beautiful bends and passages under stone arches and tunnels dug into the rock... a great moment!!!

In October 2017, I chose the Scart valved silencer with switch on my 2010 Cayman S PDK. In short, only one question really arises: how did I drive without it before? Complete satisfaction after one month of use, the prices are not unjustified. The Scart team in Goussainville is top. Welcome, tour and advice. Olivier
Hello, I own a Boxster S 987 Phase 2 PDK not equipped with the PSE, and I had been thinking for quite a while about having a sport exhaust fitted because the original sound remains hardly present and very muted... After hesitating at length because of a number of factors (price, since it's a substantial investment, poor sound rendering in the videos...) I took the plunge last week with the installation of a valved silencer with the remote controls at GT SPORT (near Lyon)!!! And to be honest, IT'S PURE HAPPINESS!!! I even regret not having done it sooner!!! The sound is just magnificent with the valves open, it gives the car a real sporty side that it didn't have before! I'm sincerely impressed. With the valves closed the sound is a little more present than before but nothing unpleasant, both on the road and at 130/140 on the motorway. For those who are still hesitating, you can take the leap with your eyes closed, you won't regret it. Thanks to SCART for this superb result ;) Read more

This message is intended for lovers of beautiful sound who have not yet taken the plunge Within 24 hours, I witnessed my reptile being transformed into a wild cat under a spell cast by Martin Scart! Thank you to Martin for sharing his enthusiasm with so much patience and for being so available. What a pleasure it's been since yesterday when an exhaust with valves was fitted on my virtually voiceless 2nd gen cayman 2! I'm not sure which gives me the greatest pleasure: the feeling I get sitting behind the wheel or the enthusiasm of my friends, fans of beautiful air-cooled mechanics...but all admirers of such a beautiful sound! Having been in a position to appreciate the quality of the welcome and the kindness of Martin's team, I now understand all those flattering messages left about RS TUBE! Read more

Hi Martin, Oliv from Le Havre. Boxster 987 cab 2nd gen 2010 (now a fighter plane) Having fitted the silencer with valve which gave what I call a racing sound (not easy to discribe a sound) I've fitted the headers and 200 cell primary cats ... and ...WHAT A SOUND... still racing, but add to that deep and seductive, and powerful. The gloup gloups increase when decelerating, after driving with it a few times, more nervous ... the acceleration is just crazy, there is clearly more power. THIS IS REALLY SOMETHING REALLY SOMETHING AND BEAUTIFUL. Martin you're just going to have to take a look at my 964.... At the end of the day I'm a happy (Porsche) man. All the fans and the rest turn round and ask straight out, what is that sound ? I want the same !!!! It's been a pleasure Oliv Read more

8 days ago, I took the plunge by having a SCART sport valved exhaust and 2 BMC air filters fitted on my Cayman S. Well, friends, I got another car back. The sound of a real sports car and even a car that revs up better. You can feel the engine breathing. Great professionalism from the team and Martin took great care of me. Don't hesitate, treat yourself. You get very good advice and we even got to visit the workshop. Read more

I wanted to give some musicality back to my Boxster S, which had no PSE and was therefore a bit voiceless. So I called Scart to inquire and ended up with Martin Scart, who was very friendly by the way, and who explained in detail how the Ultima Recital works. I understand today why it is named this way. This exhaust is demonic as soon as you climb in the revs and relatively discreet at steady speed. Thanks again Martin Scart for making such exhausts!! Read more
I wanted to give some musicality back to my Boxster S, which had no PSE and was therefore a bit voiceless. So I called Scart to inquire and ended up with Martin Scart, who was very friendly by the way, and who explained in detail how the Ultima Recital works. I understand today why it is named this way. This exhaust is demonic as soon as you climb in the revs and relatively discreet at steady speed. Thanks again Martin Scart for making such exhausts!!
After going through everything that existed in exhausts on the net, I decided to contact Mr. SCART. He took the time to answer all my questions, with professionalism and kindness. I took the time to drive before leaving this comment, and the verdict is unequivocal, the sound is perfect. No vibration, no resonance. On a trickle of throttle, or at constant speed, no need to raise your voice to talk in the car, the exhaust is discreet; on the other hand, at full throttle in sport mode, it sings fiercely in the mountains! I didn't want a vulgar noise, or to modify the wiring harness for a flap system. The hardware exudes quality, and there is also the satisfaction of having a French craftsman product! An investment, but my 2.7 PDK is transformed, and it's a real thrill on every outing. The best! Read more

After hesitating for a long time between the Porsche PSE and the SCART valved exhaust, I decided to call Martin, who was really full of good advice. I was able to get an appointment within a fortnight for the silencers to be fitted directly at the manufacturing site in Goussainville. The fitting took less than 6 hours and I was lucky enough to watch the work for a good part of the time. I decided on the spot to add the exhaust tip, and one of the technicians started making the connecting piece (the Y) right before my eyes, as it wasn't in stock :) I got a guided tour of the fabrication workshop and I admit I wasn't expecting to find myself in front of a small team of enthusiasts mastering every phase of making a 100% "made in France" exhaust. This is a far cry from mass industry, if you are looking for a passionate craftsman for a made-to-measure job, you are at the right address. PS. I had a few worries about the fitting (including the electrical wiring and replacing the console with the PSE button), but I quickly realized that the person doing it knew the vehicle perfectly and all the little tricks for removal. So your car will be in good hands. Read more

I wanted to personalise my car and give it a sportier touch. So I booked it in for an Ultima Recital with Martin Scart in Goussainville on the 8th of December. I had a very friendly welcome, everything was ready and the team was efficient and professional. True craftsmanship. The result was better than I'd hoped for. My car was transformed ... the sound was husky when they started her up then it just let rip when the revs increased. 200kms through the Chevreuse Valley this weekend to break in the exhaust and the sound is even richer and deeper. Well done to the Scart team! Read more

Owner of a Cayman GT4 since September 2015 and aware that the 3.8L was necessarily restricted in this vehicle, I set out to try to find on the net a few points of improvement to optimize its performance. In my research, a tuner told me there was a lot to do on the headers and the catalytic converters, too restrictive in his opinion. This was done with a first contact at Scart and sending my original headers as a template since they had not yet worked on this model. I can say that I am downright thrilled with the work provided and the result obtained by Martin Scart and his team, my GT4 breathes much better, revs up more quickly and delivers a different sound, more raspy and even more thrilling..... Pure happiness. Thanks again for this excellent work Read more

Great art! The sound of the 4-liter is transcended and it finally sounds the way it should. It's angry and metallic and perfectly civilized with the valves closed. On top of that, the quality of Mr. Scart's explanations makes the difference. You can go for it with your eyes closed.
I have just installed the Super Sound silencer on my 914 and I must tell you that I am very pleasantly surprised!!! I expected something very good, but this is the top!! First of all, it is a very beautiful piece, and it is a pity that on the 914 it is almost entirely hidden, but the sound... I no longer recognize my car, it is transfigured. The 914 2.0 4-cylinder is very pleasant and very efficient, but you have to admit that the sound of the flat 4 is not very melodious... with your silencer everything changes! Thank you to the whole team. Read more

As an enthusiast for the classic 911 I was tempted to try out a 2,0L 914 (1973)... and it proved to be a revelation... for its kind of off-beat style, its good feeling but also for its central engine, it's road-holding..etc... virtually a perfect car to my mind... virtually though because the sound of the flat4 isn't quite as sexy as that of the flat6... So I took a chance and bought and fitted a scart exhaust... since then I am more than satisfied with its full and generous sound... without overdoing it...thank you and well done! Read more

Owner of two "poor man's" Porsches, a 944 S2 and a 996 3.4, which I brought to Scart this morning to have the right exhausts fitted. It was done in 1 hour. I had already had a sport silencer fitted on the 944. The welcome was great, the mechanic first-rate, friendly and good company (he should be reimbursed by social security) and the sound magical (Ultima): raspy at low revs and a crescendo as the revs climb, a symphony for 6 healthy cylinders. You need a little time to get used to the volume, it's a change, but at a steady speed you can still chat with your wife. And if by any chance there's a quarrel, the Scart is great: you downshift, you accelerate and you shout "what did you say, darling, I didn't hear, ah, you were talking about your mother?" and you give it another dab of throttle. So in the end, at Scart they take care of the cars and avoid arguments... :D Read more

Hello, I had the honour of meeting Martin Scart and all his team, they installed a pair of sport silencers and adapted two made-to-measure twin tail pipes, an extremely professional job, and excellent value too and that's nothing compared to the result, heads turn every time. RESULT GUARANTEED Thanks to Martin and his team. Gilles d'ANGLET Read more

Since I fitted my sport exhaust (not a Scart) on my 958 Turbo, I've been very happy with it, the noise is very nice but to my taste not loud enough, especially in comfort mode. So I decided to fit bypasses. A real demon noise with the thrust that goes with it. The little extra as well, when I downshift, there are crackles, also called pops and bangs, well pronounced but not too much. I am really happy with the modification. If you want to take the step one day you won't have any regrets. Thanks to Martin Scart for the quality work done, his welcome, and he's really a super nice enthusiast. Read more

Stéphane the 5th of January 2015 I just received my exhaust this morning, my mechanic and I have spent the afternoon working on it, removing the intermediate silencers and replacing them with 2 pipes and fitting the 2 silencers with valves a few electrical connections and air pressure nothing too difficult the line fits perfectly into the space left by the original mind out though at the initial turn of the key with the valves closed and the V8's engine cold the starter mode will make the walls tremble and then after 20 seconds it'll calm down. Driving with the valves closed just a nice sound with the windows down. Windows closed cruising you can't hear a thing perfect! In valve open mode when you really put your foot down hard that's really something my V8 just lets rip impossible not to turn heads even a deaf person would feel that engine growl I've only one thing to say: thank you MR MARTIN SCART Read more

Yet another testimonial attesting to the responsiveness, the passion for the Porsche brand and the "singing". A big thank you to the whole team of the SCART music conservatory. Even when the student is a Panamera Diesel (V6 300), it is accepted and discovers a real voice after only a few hours. It is astonishing! Porsche has already worked hard to mask the noise of its diesels, but here, we move upmarket. Without having the vocalizations or the predispositions of a Panamera GTS or of a 997 trained by the same conservatory, it remains faithful to its philosophy: a very comfortable tourer, well soundproofed and quiet at constant speed... but there is a big plus: the car becomes very playful. The manual mode is then no longer a diesel gimmick at all. Ignition on: the sound is duller. Moving at very low speeds, you catch yourself looking for the exact rev range where the sound becomes much more present and much more raspy. Pedestrians then hear the sound of a powerful, large-displacement engine and yet... On the road, or on the motorway, the soundproofing still does its job, but this raspy sound remains audible with every press of the accelerator pedal. Finally, how does the unexpected toy hold up crossing a tunnel? If you open the window(s), this time it is the driver and passengers who get an earful, a wonderful song that will delight or worry all the other users of the tunnel. Read more

Thanks Martin for a great job I'm in heaven as soon as I turn the key... An outstanding sound
My Audi R8 made, let's say, a nonexistent noise. After several weeks of research, watching videos and testimonials, I turned to SCART Exhausts. A valved exhaust for my Audi R8. Although I've only driven a few hundred kilometers with it, I'm more than delighted. The exhaust is superb, the finish is top, high-quality work with a service that should be everywhere else. The sound is simply demonic with the valves open during acceleration; a pure, powerful sound that finally matches the engine and the "face" of the car. It rumbles, it gurgles, it's quite unique. You simply feel like you've changed the engine. With the valves closed it's present but not too much, no parasitic noise at steady speed. It's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks to the whole SCART team Read more

Since I picked my car up I just don't recognise it. The sytem Martin Scart has developped is exceptional. Valves closed the sound is quieter than my old line (Miltek) at a steady speed and about the same when accelerating and yet remains relatively discrete. Once the valves are open it's out of this world. It's hard to describe, very "cavernous" at low speed a bit like a big 1970s American v8, I love it. As you put your foot down the sound becomes angrier and sporty. This system is just what I was looking for and I don't believe you could find better, I can't get enough of it and I use my car more now. Product, welcome, availability, quality, installation I can't fault it. Read more

3I got to know the Scart house at the "Exclusive Days" in Le Mans! Mr. Delmas managed to convince me that their rear silencers for my Maserati would suit perfectly the sound I imagined, rather raspy and not shrill in the high revs! Well, I ordered them, installed them, and you know what??? It's just perfect! So thank you for your advice and the speed of execution! Jacques Périsset, Switzerland Read more

I was infected with the Porsche bug by a friend of friends. Besides the fact that the car has an extraordinary engine, it lacked a sound worthy of the beast. After searching and searching, after enriching conversations and with perseverance, only one name kept coming up: S C A R T. Result: P E R F E C T... Pure happiness. From the moment I arrived, they took the beast apart with astonishing professionalism, everything neatly stored and sorted, and after a few hours, the monster let out vocalises worthy of the machine. Great work, perfect team, simple, practical and fast. Recommended without hesitation. Thanks to the Scart team and all the best to everyone. Mahau M Read more

a big thank you for the job you've done : the installation of an exhaust which gives an extraordinary sound worthy of the efficiency of the Turbo and improved engine mapping pushing the turbo to achieve a performance hitherto I hadn't dared hope for. a great big green card for the professionalism and kindness of the team that I met : Martin and Olivier See you soon Read more
