Fabspeed Exhaust

Fabspeed Deluxe Dual Style Tips.

The Fabspeed Deluxe Dual Style Exhaust Tips are a premium styling and replacement upgrade for the 2006–2009 Porsche 997 GT3 and GT3 RS.

Fits:

• Porsche 997 MK1 GT3 / GT3 RS 2006-09

Featuring larger 100mm outlets compared with the approximately 88mm factory tips, they give the rear of the GT3 a more substantial and performance-inspired appearance while retaining factory-style fitment.

The tips use a lightweight holder plate and are designed to bolt directly to the original Porsche centre muffler. They can also be fitted to compatible aftermarket exhaust systems that accept factory-style exhaust tips.

Current finish options include polished, carbon fibre, satin black and titanium variants, allowing the appearance of the exhaust outlets to be matched to the vehicle.

What This Product Does:
Exhaust tips form the visible final outlet of the exhaust system, directing exhaust gases away from the rear of the vehicle while providing the finished appearance of the tailpipe assembly.

The Fabspeed Deluxe Dual Style Tips are designed primarily to:

• Replace worn or damaged original exhaust tips
• Increase outlet diameter from approximately 88mm to 100mm
• Give the Porsche 997 GT3 a more aggressive rear appearance
• Maintain factory-style centre muffler fitment
• Provide secure and correctly aligned exhaust outlets
• Offer a choice of performance-inspired finishes
• Allow straightforward installation without replacing the complete exhaust system

These tips are primarily an appearance and replacement upgrade rather than a significant engine-performance modification.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Exhaust tips are constantly exposed to high temperatures, condensation, exhaust deposits and road contamination.

Common signs that the original tips may require replacement include:

• Surface corrosion or pitting
• Heavy soot accumulation
• Permanent staining or heat discolouration
• Peeling or deterioration of the finish
• Scratches or impact damage
• Dents or deformation
• Loose mounting hardware
• Excessive movement or vibration
• Rattling while driving
• Cracks around mounting points
• Tips sitting unevenly or incorrectly aligned
• Contact with the bumper or surrounding trim
• A worn appearance that cannot be restored through cleaning or polishing

Cosmetic deterioration alone may not affect exhaust operation, but damaged mounts or severe deterioration can allow an exhaust tip to become loose.

Why Replacement Matters:
Exhaust tips make up a prominent part of the rear appearance of the Porsche 997 GT3 and GT3 RS.

Ageing, stained or damaged tips can detract from an otherwise well-maintained vehicle. More importantly, a loose or distorted exhaust tip may vibrate, rattle or contact surrounding bumper components.

Continued movement can lead to:

• Damage to surrounding trim
• Unwanted rattling and vibration
• Increased stress on mounting hardware
• Incorrect exhaust outlet alignment
• Further deterioration of the tip mounting points

Replacing worn exhaust tips restores correct positioning and secure mounting while refreshing the appearance of the exhaust system.

Where the centre muffler and remainder of the exhaust remain in good condition, replacing only the tips is also a practical way to update the vehicle without the expense of replacing major exhaust components.

Fabspeed Deluxe Quad-Style Tips.

The Fabspeed Deluxe Quad-Style Exhaust Tips are premium replacement exhaust outlets designed for the 2006–2009 Porsche 997 Turbo.

Fits:

• Porsche 997 MK1 TURBO 2006-09

Featuring substantial 3.5-inch outlets, these quad-style tips give the rear of the 997 Turbo a more purposeful, performance-inspired appearance while replacing ageing, corroded or damaged original exhaust tips.

Manufactured from high-quality 14–16 gauge T304 stainless steel, the tips are designed to withstand exhaust heat, condensation, road contamination and repeated temperature changes. They are available in polished or satin black ceramic-coated finishes, allowing the appearance of the exhaust to be tailored to the vehicle.

The bolt-on design makes them suitable for use with both factory and compatible aftermarket exhaust systems.

What This Product Does:
Exhaust tips form the visible final section of the exhaust system through which exhaust gases leave the vehicle.

Their main functions include:

• Providing a finished outlet for the exhaust system
• Directing exhaust gases away from the rear of the vehicle
• Replacing damaged, corroded or deteriorated original tips
• Improving the appearance of the rear bumper and exhaust outlets
• Providing a distinctive quad-tip performance look
• Maintaining secure and correctly positioned exhaust outlets
• Offering durable stainless-steel construction for long-term use
• These tips are primarily an appearance, durability and replacement upgrade rather than a major engine-performance modification.
  
  

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Exhaust tips are continuously exposed to heat, moisture, condensation, exhaust deposits and road debris. Over time, the original outlets can deteriorate.

Common signs that replacement may be required include:

• Rust or visible corrosion
• Pitting in the metal surface
• Permanent staining or severe discolouration
• Peeling or deterioration of the original finish
• Dents or deformation caused by impact
• Scratches or cosmetic damage
• Loose or unstable exhaust tips
• Rattling or vibration while driving
• Cracks around welds or attachment points
• Tips sitting unevenly or incorrectly aligned
• Excessive soot deposits around the connections
• Exhaust tips contacting the bumper or surrounding trim
• Mounting hardware that is heavily corroded or no longer secure

A tip that has become badly corroded around its mounting area may eventually loosen or detach.

Why Replacement Matters:
Damaged or badly deteriorated exhaust tips can affect both the appearance and security of the exhaust outlet.

A loose tip may vibrate or rattle and can move sufficiently to contact the bumper or nearby trim. Continuous contact can damage painted or finished surfaces and place additional stress on the exhaust mounting points.

Heavy corrosion may also weaken the attachment area, increasing the possibility of the tip becoming insecure.

Replacing worn exhaust tips helps restore:

• Correct exhaust outlet positioning
• Secure mounting
• A cleaner rear-end appearance
• Reduced rattling or unwanted movement
• Protection against contact with surrounding trim
• A more consistent and finished appearance

Where the remainder of the exhaust system is still in good condition, replacing the tips also provides a cost-effective way to refresh the appearance of the vehicle without replacing silencers or other major exhaust components.

Fabspeed Race Exhaust System.

The Fabspeed Race Exhaust System is a lightweight, performance-focused cat-back exhaust upgrade designed for the 2006–2009 Porsche 997 GT3 and GT3 RS.

Fits:

• Porsche 997 MK1 GT3 / GT3 RS 2006-09

Developed for drivers seeking a more aggressive motorsport-style exhaust character, the system replaces the factory rear exhaust arrangement with a combination of Fabspeed's Center Mini Maxflo Performance Exhaust System and Side Muffler Bypass Pipes.

This configuration significantly reduces the amount of silencing and restriction at the rear of the vehicle, producing a louder, more direct and Cup-car-inspired flat-six exhaust note.

Manufactured from high-quality 14–16 gauge CNC mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel, the system is engineered to withstand high exhaust temperatures while offering strong corrosion resistance and reduced rear-end weight.

What This Product Does:
The factory exhaust system controls noise while carrying combustion gases away from the engine and through the catalytic converters.

The Fabspeed Race Exhaust replaces much of the original rear silencing arrangement with freer-flowing performance components.

Its primary functions and benefits include:

• Reducing restriction in the rear exhaust system
• Improving exhaust gas flow
• Producing a much more aggressive exhaust note
• Reducing weight behind the rear axle
• Supporting improved throttle response
• Supporting increased engine performance
• Giving the GT3 a Cup-car-inspired exhaust character
• Replacing ageing factory rear exhaust components
• Providing durable stainless-steel construction

Because it is a cat-back system, it works downstream of the catalytic converters and does not itself replace the vehicle's catalysts.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
The original exhaust components on a 997 GT3 are exposed to extreme heat, vibration, condensation and repeated thermal cycles.

Common symptoms of deterioration can include:

• Rust or corrosion on exhaust components
• Cracks around welds or seams
• Blowing or hissing exhaust noises
• Black soot around leaking joints
• Rattling from muffler internals
• Loose exhaust clamps or mounting points
• Excessive vibration
• Exhaust fumes around the rear of the vehicle
• Unexpected increase in exhaust noise
• Damaged or distorted pipework
• Poor exhaust-tip alignment
• Reduced engine response where restriction or leakage is severe
• Heat damage around deteriorated exhaust joints

Similar noises can also come from heat shields, exhaust hangers or catalytic converters, so the complete exhaust system should be inspected before replacement.

Why Replacement Matters:
A deteriorating exhaust system can affect more than sound.

Cracks and leaking joints allow hot gases to escape before reaching the intended outlets. This can expose nearby components to excessive heat, create unwanted noise and allow soot to build up around the damaged area.

Loose or internally damaged silencers may also rattle or create additional exhaust restriction.

Replacing deteriorated rear exhaust components helps restore:

• A secure exhaust path
• Correct exhaust outlet routing
• Reduced unwanted leakage
• Reliable mounting
• Proper clearance from surrounding components
• Consistent exhaust operation

For vehicles with a healthy factory exhaust, the Fabspeed system is primarily a performance, weight-saving and sound upgrade.

Fabspeed RACE Supersport Exhaust Performance Package.

The Fabspeed Supersport Performance Package is a comprehensive performance upgrade designed for the 2006–2009 Porsche 997 Turbo.

Fits:

• Porsche 997 MK1 TURBO 2006-09

Rather than replacing a single component, this package upgrades several key areas of the engine's breathing and exhaust system. It combines a freer-flowing Supersport X-Pipe exhaust, performance headers, Competition Air Intake, Deluxe Quad Style exhaust tips and Fabspeed XperTune Performance Software.

Together, these components are designed to reduce intake and exhaust restrictions, improve exhaust scavenging, enhance turbo response and optimise engine management for the upgraded hardware.

Fabspeed quotes gains of approximately 74 wheel horsepower and 78 ft-lb of torque, although actual results will vary depending on vehicle condition, fuel, specification and operating conditions.

Package Includes:

• Fabspeed 997 Turbo Supersport X-Pipe Exhaust System
• Cat-Bypass Pipes for Race configuration
• Fabspeed 997 Turbo Sport Performance Headers
• Fabspeed Deluxe Quad Style Exhaust Tips
• Fabspeed Competition Air Intake
• Fabspeed XperTune Performance Software

What This Product Does:
The package improves the way air enters the engine, how exhaust gases leave the cylinders and how the engine management system responds to the upgraded hardware.

The Supersport exhaust replaces the heavier and more restrictive factory rear exhaust arrangement with a freer-flowing X-pipe system.

This helps:

• Reduce exhaust restriction
• Improve exhaust gas flow
• Produce a stronger performance exhaust sound
• Allow the turbochargers to operate against a less restrictive exhaust system
• Support increased horsepower and torque

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Because this package replaces and upgrades several systems, potential symptoms depend on which original component has deteriorated.

Ageing factory exhaust components may show:

• Corrosion or rust
• Cracked exhaust pipes or welds
• Blowing or hissing noises
• Exhaust leaks
• Black soot around leaking joints
• Rattling from silencers or catalytic converters
• Reduced engine or turbo response
• Increased exhaust restriction
• Damaged catalytic converter material
• Check Engine Light relating to catalyst efficiency
• Exhaust fumes around the rear of the vehicle
• Loose or damaged mounting points

Why Replacement / Upgrading Matters:

• The 997 Turbo's engine relies on efficient airflow both before and after the turbochargers.
• Restrictions in the intake system make it harder for the engine and turbochargers to draw in sufficient air, while excessive exhaust restriction can work against efficient evacuation of exhaust gases.
• Ageing catalytic converters, damaged silencers, cracked headers or contaminated filters may therefore affect performance and responsiveness.
• Replacing deteriorated components restores system integrity, while upgrading to freer-flowing components can reduce restriction and allow the engine to operate more efficiently.
• The Fabspeed package goes further by combining the hardware upgrades with ECU calibration designed around the improved airflow characteristics. This creates an integrated package rather than fitting individual performance components independently.

As many GT3 owners know, the OEM mufflers are prone to cracking, breaking and blowing out, particularly the titanium mufflers on GT3RS cars. Fabspeed Motorsport Engineers design a GT3 primary muffler replacement that not only fixed that issue but also greatly improved on the OEM design in multiple measurable ways. Using our 30+ years of air and water-cooled experience, we took the valve open tubing to 2.75in / 70mm which is the optimal diameter for GT3 engines to have low restriction but maintain high velocity and high RPM GT3 pitch for the signature GT3 CUP car sound. Then, we implemented our signature investment cast 70mm 2.75" X-Pipe for optimal exhaust scavenging and maximum volumetric efficiency. The X merges the two cylinder banks without creating any restriction in exhaust flow. To maintain the factory muffler’s exhaust note and lack of drone, we mimicked Porsche’s 7 chamber design. This makes for a completely drone free muffler, even when running cat-less race headers! Using GT3 headers with cats or Fabspeed headers with HJS German EPA approved catalytic converters along with Fabspeed GT3 Side Muffler Muffler Bypass Pipes for the ultimate emissions compliant lightweight GT3 exhaust. Fabspeed's GT3 center muffler is guaranteed to NEVER BREAK or fail- and OUTPERFORM any other aftermarket GT3 center muffler. 100% made in house at Fabspeed.
 
SOUND:
This muffler will have a very similar tone to the OEM muffler, however, it will be a bit louder with PSE turned on. It will also sound a bit smoother and higher pitched thanks to our signature X-pipe.

POWER:
On our 997.1/ 997.2 GT3 and GT3RS test car, paired with our Side Muffler Muffler Bypass Pipes, the Rennsport Muffler picked up an impressive 27 ft/lbs of TQ down low at 3,200 RPM. From 2,900 RPM all the way to 5,700 RPM it picks up =12 horsepower or more, and peak power at the wheels is up from 446 to 454! That’s a gain of over 12 HP at the crank- from simply swapping out the fragile restrictive OEM Porsche 997GT3 to the very latest GT3 RS Titanium OEM factory mufflers. BEST ADVICE- but and install a Fabspeed GT3 center muffler and SAVE you fragile OEM GT3 muffler for Concours shows and restoration. All GT3 OEM mufflers BREAK & EXPLODE when driven long and hard enough.

Fabspeed Sport Headers.

The Fabspeed Sport Headers are a high-performance replacement for the factory exhaust manifolds and catalytic converter assemblies on the 2006–2009 Porsche 997 GT3 and GT3 RS.

Fits:

• Porsche 997 MK1 GT3 / GT3 RS 2006-09

Designed to improve exhaust flow throughout the engine's operating range, these headers use high-velocity 3-into-1 merge collectors to combine exhaust gases efficiently before they pass through the supplied 200-cell HJS Sport Catalytic Converters.

The system is manufactured from high-quality 14–16 gauge CNC mandrel-bent stainless steel, providing excellent resistance to heat, corrosion and repeated thermal cycling.

Fabspeed reports gains of approximately 22 horsepower and 37 lb-ft of torque, together with a 2 lb reduction in weight compared with the factory arrangement. Actual results will vary depending on vehicle condition, specification and operating conditions.

What This Product Does:
The exhaust headers collect combustion gases leaving the engine cylinders and direct them into the remainder of the exhaust system.

Efficient header design is particularly important on the naturally aspirated GT3 engine because exhaust pulse timing and scavenging influence how effectively the cylinders can clear spent gases and draw in the next intake charge.

The Fabspeed Sport Headers are designed to:

• Improve exhaust gas flow
• Reduce restriction compared with the factory header and catalyst arrangement
• Improve exhaust scavenging
• Increase throttle response
• Support increased horsepower and torque
• Produce a stronger sports-car exhaust note
• Provide high-flow catalytic converter performance
• Replace ageing or damaged factory exhaust manifolds
• Reduce a small amount of rear exhaust weight

The 3-into-1 pyramidal merge collectors are designed to combine the exhaust pulses from each cylinder bank smoothly, helping maintain gas velocity and reduce turbulence.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
The original headers and catalytic converters operate under extreme temperatures and experience repeated expansion and contraction throughout their service life.

Common signs of deterioration include:

• Ticking or tapping noises during cold starts
• Blowing or hissing sounds from the exhaust manifold area
• Black soot around leaking header joints
• Cracks in the manifold or welds
• Warped mounting flanges
• Broken or corroded mounting hardware
• Exhaust fumes around the engine or rear of the vehicle
• Increased exhaust noise
• Reduced throttle response
• Noticeable loss of engine performance
• Check Engine Light relating to catalyst efficiency
• Metallic rattling from inside a catalytic converter
• Sulphur-like or unusual exhaust smells
• Increased exhaust restriction
• Loss of power at higher engine speeds
• Excessive heat around the catalyst area

A catalytic converter can also deteriorate internally. The substrate may crack, melt or break apart, potentially restricting the exhaust path.

Why Replacement Matters:
A damaged or leaking exhaust header reduces the efficiency of the exhaust system and can allow extremely hot gases to escape into surrounding areas.

Cracks or leaking flanges can cause:

• Unwanted exhaust noise
• Reduced exhaust scavenging
• Heat exposure to surrounding components
• Loss of engine response
• Further deterioration of exhaust joints and hardware

A deteriorating catalytic converter can be equally problematic.

If the catalyst substrate becomes damaged or partially blocked, exhaust gases cannot leave the engine efficiently. Increased backpressure can reduce performance and place additional thermal stress on the exhaust system.

Replacing deteriorated headers and catalysts helps restore:

• A secure and leak-free exhaust path
• Efficient exhaust scavenging
• Correct exhaust gas flow
• Consistent throttle response
• Proper catalyst function
• Reduced exhaust restriction
• Reliable long-term exhaust operation

For vehicles with healthy factory components, upgrading to the Fabspeed system provides the additional benefit of freer-flowing headers and sport catalysts designed to improve overall engine response.

Fabspeed Sport Headers.

The Fabspeed Sport Headers are a high-performance replacement for the factory exhaust manifolds on 2006–2009 Porsche 997 Turbo models.

Fits:

• Porsche 997 MK1 TURBO 2006-09

Designed to improve the flow of exhaust gases from the cylinder heads to the turbochargers, these headers use equal-length primary tubing and high-velocity 3-into-1 merge collectors to create a smoother and less restrictive exhaust path.

They are manufactured from 14–16 gauge CNC mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel, providing excellent resistance to heat, corrosion and repeated thermal cycling.

Fabspeed designed the headers as a direct replacement for the original Porsche headers, making them suitable as both a performance upgrade and a replacement for ageing or damaged factory exhaust manifolds.

What This Product Does:
The exhaust headers collect exhaust gases leaving the engine's cylinders and direct them towards the turbochargers.

On a turbocharged engine, the energy contained in the exhaust gases is used to drive the turbine wheels. Efficient exhaust flow before the turbochargers can therefore influence turbo response, engine breathing and overall performance.

The Fabspeed Sport Headers are designed to:

• Improve exhaust gas flow
• Reduce restriction before the turbochargers
• Improve exhaust scavenging
• Support faster and more responsive turbo operation
• Improve throttle response
• Support increased engine performance
• Provide smoother exhaust flow through equal-length tubing
• Replace ageing factory manifolds with durable stainless-steel components

The 3-into-1 merge collector design brings the exhaust gases from three cylinders together smoothly before they reach each turbocharger, helping minimise turbulence and improve exhaust flow.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Factory exhaust manifolds operate under extremely demanding conditions, including very high exhaust temperatures, constant vibration and repeated heating and cooling cycles.

Common symptoms of worn, cracked or leaking exhaust headers include:

• Ticking or tapping noises when the engine is cold
• Blowing or hissing noises from the exhaust manifold area
• Exhaust leaks around the cylinder-head flanges
• Black soot deposits around manifold joints
• Cracks in the manifold or welds
• Warped mounting flanges
• Broken or heavily corroded mounting hardware
• Increased exhaust noise
• Exhaust fumes around the engine compartment
• Reduced throttle response
• Reduced or inconsistent turbo response
• Loss of engine performance
• Increased heat around nearby engine components

Similar symptoms can also be caused by failed exhaust gaskets, loose fasteners or leaks elsewhere in the exhaust system, so the complete assembly should be inspected before replacement.

Why Replacement Matters:
An exhaust header must provide a secure and sealed path for gases travelling from the engine to the turbocharger.

If a header cracks or develops a leaking flange, exhaust gases can escape before reaching the turbocharger. This reduces the exhaust energy available to drive the turbine and may contribute to poorer turbo response and reduced performance.

Escaping exhaust gases can also expose surrounding components to excessive heat and create unwanted noise.

Replacing damaged or deteriorated headers helps restore:

• A properly sealed exhaust path
• Efficient delivery of exhaust gases to the turbochargers
• Consistent turbocharger response
• Correct exhaust flow
• Reduced exhaust leakage
• Improved durability

For owners upgrading rather than repairing, the Fabspeed equal-length design and high-velocity merge collectors are intended to reduce restriction compared with the original headers and improve overall engine response.

Why We Choose HJS Catalytic Converters: 

HJS German imported catalytic converters are made from some of the highest grade materials you can find in a catalytic converter. This yields high performance gains and longevity so it wont deteriorate over time like lower grade catalytic converters. These catalytic converters flow up to 93-95% of a straight pipe in most applications. The benefit is that you get the "straight pipe sound" while still being able to provide enough emissions scrubbing to prevent a check engine light. 

Sport Catalytic Converter (STREET) - This product removes the OEM catalytic converters from the vehicle, and as such, is strictly intended for closed track events and off-road use only. This product contains a High-Flow Sport Catalytic Converter solely intended for track and race cars as it is NOT California Air Resources Board Certified and not EPA certified. You are hereby informed and warned to check your local, state, and federals laws before buying and installing these or any aftermarket parts to be sure whether usage is in violation. All installation-risk and use-risk is borne by the end-user and installer of these parts.

They are not MOT compliant and must not be used on public roads. These components are intended for race and track use only.

Fabspeed Maxflo Performance Exhaust System for Porsche 997 Turbo Cabrio / Tiptronic (2006-2009)

Sound Level: Mild



Fabspeed's Maxflo Performance Exhaust System is the perfect exhaust upgrade for someone who is looking for a more sportier sports car sound without being overbearing for street driving; available in either Sport or Mild exhaust tones.
Having two different muffler designs allows us provide a free-flowing design that produces horsepower and torque but can also provide two slightly different exhaust sounds. Which gives the ability to offer the end user a choice between a slightly louder sportier sound and a slightly more mild sound. From our years of experience and working with the owners of these cars, we have noticed a few things that will help you make your decision a little easier on the sound option. Most vehicle owners with a Manual Gearbox and Coupe model found the Sport version a better fit for their car and the Tiptronic / Cabriolet owners preferred the Mild version a better fit for vehicles with the open top and automatic transmissions for better sound control.
