SOUL Race Exhaust System, Manual Transmission.

The SOUL Performance Race Exhaust System is a high-performance aftermarket rear exhaust developed specifically for Porsche 987.2 Boxster and Cayman models manufactured between 2009 and 2012.

Fits:

  • Porsche Boxster 987 MKII 2.9L 2009-12
  • Porsche Boxster S 987 MKII 3.4L 2009-12
  • Porsche Cayman 2.9L 987C MKII 2009-12
  • Porsche Cayman S / R 3.4L 987C MKII 2009-12  

Designed for naturally aspirated 2.9-litre and 3.4-litre flat-six engines, this motorsport-focused system replaces the original rear exhaust with a lightweight, freer-flowing stainless steel arrangement.

Unlike conventional sports exhaust systems that balance sound, comfort and performance, the SOUL Race Exhaust has been developed primarily for track use, durability, weight reduction and efficient exhaust gas flow.

The system features mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel tubing with a 0.065-inch wall thickness, providing a combination of strength, corrosion resistance and reduced weight.

SOUL specifies 2.5-inch tubing for the main exhaust construction and describes the over-axle pipe profiles as 2.25 inches in diameter.

The over-axle sections are shaped to provide clearance around the rear axles and anti-roll bar drop links, including on vehicles fitted with lowered or modified suspension.

A key feature is the exhaust's bespoke mounting arrangement.

SOUL developed a transmission mounting brace and heavy-duty Mikalor band clamp system to reduce the stress associated with conventional exhaust hangers welded directly to the pipework.

Additional rubber vibration dampeners provide support to the over-axle pipes, helping manage movement and vibration during demanding driving conditions.

The mounting arrangement is also designed to be easier to repair or replace following an incident during motorsport use.

The system is manufactured in-house at SOUL Performance's Willow Grove, Pennsylvania facility.

Its stainless steel brackets are laser-cut, press-brake formed and TIG-welded, while the exhaust welds are back-purged to support durability.

SOUL Performance reports that its Race Exhaust weighs approximately 27 lb (12.2 kg), compared with approximately 46 lb (20.9 kg) for the original exhaust components.

These figures include the mounting brackets.

The resulting reduction is approximately 19 lb (8.6 kg).

The manufacturer also states that its bespoke mounting solution alone saves more than 5 lb compared with the original factory mounting arrangement.

The Race Exhaust is designed to produce an exceptionally loud and aggressive flat-six soundtrack.

Its reduced sound attenuation allows more of the engine's natural exhaust character to be heard, especially during hard acceleration and high-RPM operation.

However, this comes with a significant reduction in everyday driving refinement.

SOUL explicitly warns that exhaust drone will be present, even when resonators are fitted.

The manufacturer also advises against combining this exhaust with aftermarket headers for normal street driving because of the resulting sound characteristics.

Owners seeking a quieter or more refined exhaust should consider SOUL's separate Valved Exhaust System.

The Race Exhaust is designed for direct bolt-on installation on compatible vehicles and includes high-grade header-to-exhaust flange hardware and installation instructions.

Backed by SOUL Performance's lifetime warranty, subject to the manufacturer's conditions, this system is an upgrade for Porsche owners seeking a lighter, more durable and more aggressive exhaust arrangement for track-focused applications.

What This Product Does:
The SOUL Race Exhaust System carries spent combustion gases from the upstream exhaust components through the rear exhaust arrangement and directs them towards the exhaust outlets.

When the engine operates, exhaust gases leave the cylinder heads and travel through the exhaust manifolds and catalytic converters, where fitted.

The gases then pass into the rear exhaust system.

The SOUL Race Exhaust uses a freer-flowing pipe arrangement with substantially less emphasis on sound attenuation than the original Porsche exhaust.

Its primary functions include:

  • Directing exhaust gases: Carries combustion gases towards the rear outlets.
  • Supporting efficient exhaust flow: Uses mandrel-bent stainless steel pipework.
  • Reducing rear exhaust restriction: Provides a more direct exhaust route than the heavily silenced original rear assembly.
  • Enhancing engine sound: Produces an aggressive motorsport-style flat-six soundtrack.
  • Reducing vehicle weight: Saves approximately 19 lb compared with the manufacturer's stated original exhaust and bracket weight.
  • Supporting track durability: Uses reinforced mounting components and high-quality fabrication.
  • Reducing mounting stress: Employs a bespoke transmission brace, heavy-duty clamps and vibration dampeners.
  • Accommodating modified suspension: Uses over-axle pipe profiles designed to maintain clearance around nearby suspension components.
  • Supporting repairability: Incorporates mounting components intended to be serviceable following damage.
  • Maintaining exhaust alignment: Provides a secure mounting arrangement for demanding driving conditions.
  • Supporting performance modifications: Connects to compatible factory or SOUL Performance exhaust headers.
  • Providing corrosion resistance: Uses T304L stainless steel construction.



Exhaust Sound Characteristics:
The SOUL Race Exhaust is designed for owners who prioritise motorsport sound over everyday refinement.

It creates an extremely aggressive exhaust note, particularly during high-load driving.

Depending on engine specification, installed headers and operating conditions, drivers may notice:

  • A considerably louder exhaust tone at idle.
  • A strong, aggressive flat-six sound during acceleration.
  • Increased exhaust volume at higher engine speeds.
  • More pronounced engine sound during downshifts.
  • Significant cabin resonance.
  • Noticeable low-frequency exhaust drone.
  • A more direct motorsport-style exhaust character.

SOUL Race Exhaust System. 

The SOUL Performance Race Exhaust System is a premium aftermarket motorsport exhaust developed specifically for the Porsche 981 Cayman GT4 and Boxster Spyder models manufactured between 2015 and 2016.

Fits:

  • Porsche Boxster 981 Spyder 3.8L 2016
  • Porsche Cayman GT4 3.8L 2015-16  


Designed for the naturally aspirated 3.8-litre flat-six engine, this exhaust replaces the original rear exhaust assembly with a lightweight, high-flow stainless steel system engineered for demanding circuit driving and motorsport applications.

Unlike conventional sports exhaust systems, which balance performance, refinement and everyday comfort, the SOUL Race Exhaust is developed primarily to deliver maximum durability, reduced weight, efficient exhaust flow and a highly aggressive engine soundtrack.

The system uses 2.5-inch diameter T304L stainless steel tubing, manufactured with precision mandrel bends to maintain a consistent flow path through the exhaust system.

The tubing has a 0.065-inch wall thickness, providing a balance of strength, durability and lightweight construction.

Each system is manufactured in-house at SOUL Performance's Willow Grove, Pennsylvania facility, where the components are carefully fabricated and inspected.

The stainless steel brackets are laser-cut, press-brake formed and TIG-welded for strength, while the exhaust welds are back-purged to support long-term durability under demanding conditions.

One of the system's most distinctive features is its specially developed mounting arrangement.

Instead of relying exclusively on conventional exhaust hangers welded directly to the pipework, SOUL uses a bespoke transmission mounting brace, heavy-duty Mikalor band clamps and additional rubber vibration dampeners.

This construction is designed to reduce stress caused by engine movement, exhaust vibration and repeated thermal expansion.

SOUL states that its mounting arrangement saves over 5 lb (approximately 2.3 kg) compared with the original factory exhaust mounts.

The over-axle pipe geometry is also designed to provide sufficient clearance around the rear axles and anti-roll bar drop links, including on vehicles with lowered or modified suspension.

This is particularly relevant to track-prepared Porsche GT4 models, where aftermarket suspension setups may reduce available exhaust clearance.

The system is compatible with the original factory headers and SOUL Performance headers.

Compatibility with exhaust headers produced by other manufacturers must be checked carefully because dimensional differences may affect over-axle pipe clearance.

The SOUL Race Exhaust produces an exceptionally loud and aggressive exhaust note, emphasising the distinctive character of the Porsche naturally aspirated flat-six engine.

Its reduced sound attenuation produces a much more direct exhaust experience than the manufacturer's Performance Exhaust or Valved Exhaust systems.

SOUL explicitly states that exhaust drone will be present, even when resonators are used.

For this reason, the Race Exhaust is best suited to dedicated circuit cars, competition vehicles and other legally permitted off-road applications rather than everyday road use.

The exhaust is designed for direct bolt-on installation on compatible vehicles and includes new high-grade hardware for the header-to-exhaust flange connections.

Each assembly undergoes quality checks and fixture testing before dispatch.

Backed by SOUL Performance's lifetime warranty, subject to the manufacturer's terms, the Race Exhaust System provides a purpose-built solution for Porsche enthusiasts seeking reduced mounting weight, motorsport durability and an exceptionally aggressive flat-six soundtrack.

What This Product Does:
The SOUL Race Exhaust System directs spent combustion gases away from the engine's upstream exhaust components and through the rear exhaust outlets.

After combustion, exhaust gases leave the engine through the exhaust manifolds and associated catalytic converter assemblies, where fitted.

The gases then pass through the over-axle exhaust pipes and towards the rear outlets.

The SOUL Race Exhaust provides a performance-focused alternative to the original rear silencer arrangement.

Its main functions include:

  • Directing exhaust gases: Carries combustion gases from the upstream exhaust system towards the rear outlets.
  • Supporting efficient exhaust flow: Uses mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing with a 2.5-inch diameter.
  • Reducing unnecessary restriction: Employs a race-focused flow path rather than a heavily silenced factory-style rear exhaust.
  • Enhancing engine sound: Produces a substantially louder and more aggressive naturally aspirated flat-six soundtrack.
  • Reducing mounting weight: Uses a bespoke mounting system that saves over 5 lb compared with the factory mounts.
  • Supporting motorsport durability: Incorporates reinforced mounting components developed for demanding circuit operation.
  • Reducing mounting stress: Uses heavy-duty clamps and rubber vibration dampeners to manage vibration and movement.
  • Maintaining suspension clearance: Features over-axle pipework shaped to clear the axles and anti-roll bar drop links.
  • Accommodating modified suspension: Provides pipe profiles developed with lowered and track-prepared vehicles in mind.
  • Supporting repairability: Uses mounting components designed to be serviced or replaced after motorsport incidents.
  • Providing corrosion resistance: Uses T304L stainless steel for repeated exposure to heat and environmental conditions.
  • Maintaining compatible header connections: Connects to the original Porsche or suitable SOUL Performance exhaust headers.

Exhaust Sound Characteristics:
The SOUL Race Exhaust is designed for drivers who want an exceptionally loud and aggressive exhaust note.

It provides a much less attenuated soundtrack than the original Porsche rear exhaust.

Depending on the engine speed, upstream exhaust configuration and driving conditions, drivers may notice:

  • A noticeably louder exhaust tone at idle.
  • A very aggressive exhaust note during acceleration.
  • Increased flat-six sound intensity at higher engine speeds.
  • Stronger exhaust presence during gear changes and downshifts.
  • Pronounced exhaust character during high-load circuit driving.
  • Increased cabin resonance.
  • Noticeable low-frequency exhaust drone.
  • A more direct motorsport-style exhaust soundtrack.

Why Upgrading Matters:
1. Motorsport-Focused Construction

The Race Exhaust is designed specifically for demanding track applications.

Its reinforced components and specialised mounting arrangement are intended to withstand the stresses associated with aggressive circuit driving.

2. Reduced Exhaust Restriction

The system uses mandrel-bent 2.5-inch exhaust tubing and a freer-flowing rear exhaust arrangement.

This supports efficient movement of exhaust gases through the system.

However, specific horsepower or torque gains for this exhaust alone have not been independently confirmed.

3. Reduced Mounting Weight

SOUL states that its bespoke mounting arrangement saves more than 5 lb compared with the original factory mounts.

This contributes to the weight-saving design of the system.

4. Improved Exhaust Support

Heavy-duty Mikalor clamps and additional rubber vibration dampeners are designed to reduce excessive stress on the pipework.

This can be particularly valuable in vehicles subjected to repeated high-load driving and vibration.

5. Improved Clearance for Lowered Vehicles

The over-axle pipe geometry is developed to provide clearance around the rear axles and anti-roll bar drop links.

This makes the system relevant to GT4 models fitted with modified or lowered suspension.

Final clearance must still be checked during installation.

6. Highly Aggressive Flat-Six Sound

The system is designed to deliver a strong, intense and unmistakably motorsport-inspired exhaust note.

It is suitable for drivers who prioritise exhaust character over quiet cruising.

7. Durable Stainless Steel Construction

The T304L stainless steel tubing offers corrosion resistance and durability under repeated thermal cycling.

The system also incorporates high-quality TIG welding and back-purged weld construction.

8. Improved Repairability

The specialised mounting components are designed to be more straightforward to repair or replace after a track incident than conventional fixed hanger arrangements.

9. Compatibility with Factory or SOUL Headers

The system is designed to connect to the factory headers or SOUL Performance headers.

Compatibility with other aftermarket header systems should not be assumed.

10. Direct Bolt-On Installation

SOUL Performance fixture-tests the exhaust assemblies for fitment and includes installation instructions.

New high-grade hardware is supplied for the header-to-exhaust flanges.

11. Manufacturer Lifetime Warranty

SOUL Performance provides a lifetime warranty for its exhaust components, subject to the applicable conditions.

SOUL Performance has engineered this exhaust system to enhance those qualities while maintaining the flexibility required for both everyday driving and more enthusiastic use.

Unlike a permanently loud aftermarket exhaust, the SOUL Valved Exhaust System provides two selectable sound characteristics.

With the exhaust valves closed, gases are directed through the integrated SOUL mufflers, which contain high-quality sound-absorbing material.

This arrangement produces a deeper, refined exhaust tone while minimising unwanted cabin drone during steady motorway driving.

With the exhaust valves open, the exhaust gases can flow through a more direct 2.5-inch exhaust path, producing a louder, more aggressive exhaust note.

The open-valve arrangement highlights the characteristic sound of the Porsche flat-six engine, particularly during acceleration, high-RPM operation and downshifts.

Manufactured from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel, the system is designed to provide durability, corrosion resistance and consistent exhaust flow.

The over-axle pipes feature a 2.5-inch outside diameter, while the reinforced muffler casings are designed to withstand repeated heating and cooling cycles.

The system also incorporates carefully positioned perforations that allow exhaust pulses to interact with the mufflers even when the valves are open, encouraging a fuller and more rounded exhaust tone.

A selection of exhaust tip styles and finishes allows owners to customise the rear appearance of their Porsche.

Available manufacturer options include 321 stainless steel exhaust tips and lightweight single-wall titanium tips.

The system is designed to work with the Porsche factory exhaust valve controls, allowing the driver to retain familiar operation through the original exhaust button.

SOUL also identifies compatibility with its optional remote valve controllers and HomeLink-based control arrangements.

Each exhaust system is fixture-tested before dispatch and supplied with installation instructions for a direct bolt-on installation on compatible vehicles.

Backed by SOUL Performance's lifetime warranty, subject to the manufacturer's terms, this valved exhaust is an attractive upgrade for owners looking to improve the sound, character and appearance of their Porsche without permanently sacrificing cruising refinement.

What This Product Does:
The SOUL Performance Valved Exhaust System manages the flow of exhaust gases through the rear exhaust assembly while allowing the driver to select between two distinct exhaust sound characteristics.

Exhaust gases leave the engine through the exhaust manifolds and catalytic converter assemblies before travelling through the rear exhaust system.

The SOUL system receives these gases through its over-axle pipes and directs them towards the exhaust outlets.

The electronically operated exhaust valves determine whether the gases pass predominantly through the sound-absorbing mufflers or follow the more direct exhaust path.

Its primary functions include:

  • Directing exhaust gases: Carries spent gases from the upstream exhaust components towards the rear outlets.
  • Providing selectable exhaust sound: Allows quieter and louder operating modes.
  • Reducing motorway drone: Uses dedicated muffler construction to minimise unwanted low-frequency resonance.
  • Enhancing engine sound: Produces a deeper and more pronounced naturally aspirated flat-six soundtrack.
  • Supporting efficient exhaust flow: Uses mandrel-bent tubing and a more direct flow path with the valves open.
  • Maintaining driver control: Integrates with the factory exhaust valve control system.
  • Supporting everyday comfort: Offers a more restrained exhaust character with the valves closed.
  • Enhancing spirited driving: Provides a stronger exhaust note during acceleration and downshifts.
  • Improving rear-end appearance: Incorporates a choice of premium exhaust tip styles and finishes.
  • Providing durable construction: Uses stainless steel components designed for demanding exhaust temperatures.
  • Supporting compatible performance upgrades: Can be paired with appropriate factory or aftermarket header configurations.
  • Maintaining a factory-style installation: Uses mounting and connection arrangements intended for compatible vehicles.

How Do The Exhaust Valves Work:

Valves Closed – Refined Touring Sound

When the valves are closed, exhaust gases are directed through the SOUL mufflers.

The mufflers contain durable sound-absorbing material designed to reduce unwanted resonance while maintaining a sporting exhaust note.

This setting is intended for normal road driving, longer journeys and situations where a more restrained exhaust sound is preferred.

Benefits include:

  • A deeper but more controlled exhaust note.
  • Reduced low-frequency cabin resonance.
  • Improved cruising refinement compared with an unrestricted exhaust.
  • A sporting sound without permanently operating at maximum volume.
  • Convenient operation using the existing exhaust controls.

SOUL states that its system is designed to avoid unwanted motorway drone when paired with factory headers or appropriate high-flow catted headers.

Valves Open – Enhanced Performance Sound

With the valves open, exhaust gases can travel through the larger, more direct 2.5-inch piping.

This reduces the amount of sound attenuation compared with the closed-valve arrangement.

The result is a stronger exhaust sound that becomes particularly noticeable during acceleration and higher engine speeds.

Benefits include:

  • A louder and more aggressive flat-six exhaust note.
  • Greater exhaust character during acceleration.
  • A more pronounced sound during downshifts.
  • A fuller tone from the specially designed muffler and pipe arrangement.
  • A more engaging driving experience.       

Why Upgrading Matters:
The SOUL Performance Valved Exhaust System is designed for drivers who want a more engaging exhaust note without permanently compromising daily driving comfort.

It combines performance-oriented construction with the convenience of selectable exhaust sound.

1. Enhanced Flat-Six Sound

  • The 3.8L naturally aspirated engine fitted to the Porsche 981 GT4 and Boxster Spyder produces a distinctive high-revving exhaust note.
  • The SOUL system is designed to amplify and refine this sound, producing a deeper tone with the valves closed and a more aggressive character with the valves open.

2. Selectable Exhaust Volume

  • The electronic valve arrangement allows the driver to choose between two different exhaust modes.
  • This makes the system suitable for owners who want a more pronounced sound during spirited driving but prefer a quieter exhaust on longer journeys.

3. Reduced Unwanted Drone

  • The SOUL mufflers use sound-absorbing materials and a carefully developed internal design to minimise unwanted resonance.
  • This is particularly valuable during steady motorway driving, where permanently loud exhaust systems can become tiring.

4. Improved Exhaust Flow Potential

  • The system uses mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing and a more direct exhaust path when the valves are open.
  • This arrangement is designed to support efficient exhaust gas movement.
  • It may complement other performance upgrades, but specific horsepower and torque gains have not been verified for this exhaust system alone.

5. Factory Exhaust Valve Control Compatibility

  • The system is compatible with the original Porsche exhaust valve controls.
  • Drivers can retain the familiar exhaust control operation rather than relying on a completely separate system.
  • Optional SOUL valve-control solutions may offer additional operating flexibility.

6. Durable Stainless Steel Construction

  • The T304L stainless steel exhaust tubing and reinforced muffler casings are designed to withstand high temperatures, vibration and repeated thermal cycles.
  • The use of corrosion-resistant materials makes the system suitable for long-term enthusiast use.

7. Premium Exhaust Tip Options

  • A choice of stainless steel and titanium exhaust tips allows owners to customise the vehicle's rear appearance.
  • Titanium single-wall tips offer a lightweight alternative to stainless steel.

8. Direct Bolt-On Installation

  • The system is designed as a direct replacement for the compatible factory rear exhaust.
  • SOUL fixture-tests its exhaust assemblies and supplies installation instructions.

9. Retention of the Upstream Exhaust System

  • This is a rear exhaust upgrade rather than a complete exhaust manifold and catalytic converter replacement.
  • Compatible original headers and catalytic converters can remain installed.

10. Manufacturer's Lifetime Warranty

  • SOUL Performance backs the system with its lifetime warranty for street and track use, subject to the published warranty conditions.

  • Porsche Boxster 987 MKII 2.9L 2009-12
  • Porsche Boxster S 987 MKII 3.4L 2009-12
  • Porsche Cayman 2.9L 987C MKII 2009-12
  • Porsche Cayman S / R 3.4L 987C MKII 2009-12  

Developed for Porsche's naturally aspirated flat-six engines, this exhaust system replaces the original rear exhaust assembly with a lighter, freer-flowing stainless steel system incorporating performance silencers, vacuum-operated exhaust valves, an X-pipe outlet and premium exhaust tips.

The Porsche 987.2 Boxster and Cayman are known for their responsive engines, balanced chassis and distinctive flat-six engine sound.

SOUL Performance developed this valved exhaust to enhance the driving experience by providing a deeper, fuller exhaust note while retaining the flexibility to switch between refined and aggressive sound characteristics.

Unlike a conventional non-valved sports exhaust, the SOUL system features two distinct operating modes.

With the exhaust valves closed, exhaust gases are directed through specially developed silencers containing high-quality sound-absorbing material. This produces a more controlled exhaust tone and is designed to minimise unwanted cabin drone, particularly during steady motorway driving.

With the valves open, exhaust gases follow a more direct route through the 2.5-inch pipework, producing a noticeably louder and more aggressive flat-six soundtrack.

The system incorporates perforated passages that allow exhaust pulses to interact with the silencers, helping create a fuller and more rounded sound even when the valves are open.

Manufactured from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel, the exhaust is designed for durability, corrosion resistance and efficient exhaust gas flow.

The reinforced silencer casings and strengthened mounting brackets are engineered to withstand repeated thermal cycles, exhaust vibration and demanding driving conditions.

SOUL Performance states that its exhaust weighs approximately 30 lb, compared with 35 lb for the equivalent factory exhaust components, providing a weight saving of approximately 5 lb (2.2 kg).

A key advantage is its compatibility with vehicles both with and without factory Porsche Sport Exhaust (PSE).

On PSE-equipped vehicles, the SOUL exhaust can use the existing factory exhaust valve control arrangement.

For vehicles without PSE, SOUL includes a valve controller kit that allows the driver to operate the exhaust valves using a remote control.

The controller kit can also be installed on PSE-equipped vehicles to provide manual valve override.

A variety of premium exhaust tip styles and finishes allows owners to personalise the rear appearance of their Porsche.

Available options include 321 stainless steel exhaust tips and lightweight single-wall titanium tips.

Each system is quality-checked and fixture-tested before dispatch to ensure consistent installation fitment.

Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the compatible original rear exhaust, the kit includes installation instructions and specified mounting hardware.

Backed by SOUL Performance's lifetime warranty, subject to the manufacturer's terms, this Valved Exhaust System is an ideal upgrade for Porsche owners seeking improved exhaust sound, selectable driving characteristics, reduced weight and durable stainless steel construction.

What This Product Does:
The SOUL Performance Valved Exhaust System directs combustion gases through the rear exhaust while allowing the driver to change the exhaust gas flow path and resulting sound.

During engine operation, exhaust gases leave the cylinder heads, pass through the exhaust manifolds and catalytic converters, and enter the rear exhaust system.

The SOUL exhaust then routes these gases through its stainless steel pipework and silencers before they exit through the rear exhaust tips.

The position of the exhaust valves determines the path taken by the gases.

Its main functions include:

  • Directing exhaust gases: Carries combustion gases from the upstream exhaust components to the rear outlets.
  • Providing selectable exhaust sound: Allows quieter and louder exhaust characteristics.
  • Reducing unwanted drone: Uses sound-absorbing silencers to minimise low-frequency cabin resonance.
  • Enhancing engine sound: Produces a deeper and more aggressive flat-six exhaust note.
  • Supporting efficient exhaust flow: Uses mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing and a more direct open-valve flow path.
  • Maintaining driver control: Allows the exhaust sound to be selected using the appropriate factory or supplied controller.
  • Improving cruising refinement: Provides a quieter exhaust configuration for steady driving.
  • Enhancing spirited driving: Delivers a stronger exhaust note during acceleration and high-RPM operation.
  • Reducing exhaust weight: Offers a manufacturer-reported 5 lb saving over the original components.
  • Maintaining durable construction: Uses corrosion-resistant stainless steel and reinforced mounting components.
  • Enhancing rear-end styling: Offers different exhaust tip materials, styles and finishes.
  • Supporting performance upgrades: Can complement compatible aftermarket exhaust headers.

Why Upgrading Matters:

1. Enhanced Flat-Six Exhaust Sound

The SOUL exhaust is designed to bring out more of the naturally aspirated Porsche engine's characteristic sound.

Drivers can enjoy a fuller and more aggressive exhaust note without permanently operating at maximum volume.

2. Selectable Exhaust Characteristics

The valved arrangement provides two different sound modes.

This makes the system more versatile than a permanently loud, non-valved exhaust.

3. Reduced Motorway Drone

The specially designed silencers help minimise unwanted low-frequency resonance.

SOUL specifically reports drone-free closed-valve motorway operation when combined with the original factory headers.

4. Improved Exhaust Flow Potential

The system uses mandrel-bent 2.5-inch over-axle pipework and a more direct exhaust path when the valves are open.

This is intended to support efficient exhaust gas movement.

5. Manufacturer-Reported Performance Improvements

SOUL Performance reports Dynojet testing on a Porsche 987.2 Cayman S fitted with its Valved Exhaust System and Long Tube Street Headers.

The manufacturer recorded maximum improvements of approximately:

8 wheel horsepower. 11 lb-ft of torque.

These gains were recorded around 4,100 RPM in the tested combined configuration.

Important: These figures should not be presented as guaranteed gains from the Valved Exhaust System alone.

6. Reduced Exhaust Weight

SOUL states that its Valved Exhaust System weighs approximately 30 lb compared with 35 lb for the factory components.

This represents a saving of approximately 5 lb (2.2 kg).

7. Compatibility with Factory PSE

Vehicles already equipped with Porsche Sport Exhaust can retain compatible factory-style valve operation.

The supplied SOUL controller can also offer manual override.

8. Valve Control for Non-PSE Vehicles

Vehicles without factory PSE can gain selectable exhaust sound using the supplied SOUL valve controller kit.
