Is Fister Exhaust the Best First Mod for Your Porsche? | Darin Fister

In this episode of ElevenAfterNine, Derek sits down with good friend and Porsche community icon Darin Fister, founder of FD Motorsports. Known widely for creating the legendary Fister Exhaust and the game-changing Goldenrod shift linkage, Darin shares his story—from fabricating in his driveway to building one of the most respected aftermarket names in the Porsche world.


We dive into how the Fister exhaust design was created, why build quality and tone matter over pure volume, how to eliminate cabin drone, and what makes these modifications the ultimate bang-for-your-buck upgrade for 993, 996, 997, and water-cooled Porsches alike.
