Description

SOUL Performance Muffler Bypass Pipes for 997.1 Porsche 911 Carrera S

SOUL Performance Products’ Muffler Bypass Pipes for the Porsche 997.1 Carrera S shed serious weight and unleash a raw, CUP-inspired flat-six soundtrack by replacing the bulky side mufflers with lightweight, free-flowing T304L stainless piping that reuses the factory exhaust tips on S models. Designed as an affordable, high-impact upgrade for aggressive street cars and weekend track builds, the 2.25″ OD straight-through design maximizes flow without choking down to match the OEM outlets, delivering a loud, race-bred tone that comes alive under load. The system bolts up at the factory locations for a direct installation, drops roughly 36.5lb compared to the stock components, and is built in-house at SOUL’s Willow Grove, PA facility from.065″ wall T304L stainless for durability on both road and track. While the aggressive, unmuffled character will introduce some cabin drone especially when paired with high-flow or free flow sections, careful gear and RPM selection keeps it manageable, rewarding the driver with a sharper, more visceral driving experience every time the throttle is opened. As with all SOUL components, these bypass pipes are backed by a renowned Lifetime Warranty for street and track use, making them a compelling, worry-free solution for 997.1 Carrera S owners who want maximum sound and minimal weight while retaining their OEM tips.

Development

If you’re looking for an affordable and efficient method to increase volume substantially, look no further! This solution is ideal for those with aggressive street cars or weekend track cars. The entire system features 2.25″ OD piping, ensuring optimal flow without restricting exhaust performance for factory tips. However, base models will require aftermarket tips designed for S models or aftermarket exhaust systems.

Construction

Every set of muffler bypass pipes is meticulously crafted in-house using.065″ thick T304L stainless steel. Combining authentic, rolled-edge, matte-carbon shells with stainless steel creates a distinctively sleek and stealthy appearance, adding a stylish finishing touch to your Porsche 997’s rear end. The white vinyl logos proudly display the SOUL brand, but they can be removed if you prefer a more discreet aesthetic. Each set undergoes rigorous quality checks before being shipped and is carefully packed in foam to guarantee their flawless condition upon arrival.

Sound

One will experience a CUP-inspired straight pipe sound that will be appreciated! Some adore and desire This exhaust note, although it may be overwhelming for more conservative owners. When combined with aftermarket catalytic converters or race pipes, the aggressive and unrestricted design of the exhaust system results in a loud volume. However, the absence of muffling components leads to the presence of drone, which can be mitigated by maintaining the vehicle within the appropriate RPM range.

Bolt On & Go

To guarantee an impeccable fit, every set undergoes construction and testing within a robust aluminum fixture, specifically designed with a thick gauge to prevent any warping issues. This meticulous process ensures that each set achieves a flawless fitment.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
