Description

SOUL Performance Competition Package for 981 Porsche Boxster / Cayman

SOUL Performance’s Competition Package for 981 Porsche Boxster and Cayman was built by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts, combining the superior flow characteristics of its Competition Headers with the Valved Exhaust System’s efficient X-pipe design. This pairing delivers exceptional throttle response and a dramatic yet controlled sound profile for vehicles driven on both the street and track. With the valves closed, the exhaust maintains a refined, daily-driver-friendly tone free from excessive volume or drone. When the valves are opened, the system unleashes an intoxicating flat-six symphony as exhaust gases flow through a straight-through path and exit through the selected exhaust tips.

Power

SOUL Performance tested its Competition Package for 981 Porsche models on a Mustang dyno using a vehicle equipped with existing race headers, the Porsche Sport Exhaust System, and a custom tune as the baseline. The testing showed gains of 11whp and 9ft-lbs of torque, with additional power expected when paired with a custom retune.

Construction

SOUL Performance precision-engineers its headers from T304L stainless steel, with meticulous fabrication and proven design elements such as port-matched flanges, smooth-radius primary tubing, and optimized collectors that work together to maximize exhaust flow and power gains. Every set is rigorously quality-checked prior to shipping. Each system is constructed from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel tubing and features mufflers with fortified casings to promote long-term durability. Customers can choose from a variety of 321 stainless steel exhaust tips in multiple styles and finishes, or contact SOUL Performance to create a custom tip setup.

Bolt-On and Go

Each SOUL Performance exhaust is test-fit in a dedicated fixture to verify proper fitment, then foam packed to help ensure it arrives in perfect condition. Detailed installation instructions are included for a straightforward install that most DIY enthusiasts can complete. Valve operation is controlled through the factory valve button, SOUL’s valve controller fobs, and is compatible with HomeLink.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Competition Package for 981 Porsche include? The Competition Package for 981 Porsche pairs SOUL Performance’s Competition Headers with their Valved Exhaust System, which uses an efficient X-pipe design. Buying the two together as a matched package means the header primaries and the muffler section are flow-matched, which is where the throttle response and sound gains come from.
Which models does this package fit? The Competition Package is engineered for the 981 Porsche Boxster, Boxster S, Boxster GTS, Cayman, Cayman S, and Cayman GTS across the 2.7L and 3.4L flat-six engines. Fitment is specific to the chassis, model years, and engines listed in the Applications section above.
How much power does it add? SOUL Performance recorded gains of 11whp and 9ft-lbs of torque on a Mustang dyno, measured against a baseline vehicle that already had race headers, Porsche Sport Exhaust, and a custom tune fitted. More power is expected with a custom retune done after installation.
How loud is it day to day? With the valves closed the tone stays refined and free from excessive volume or drone, which keeps it usable as a daily driver. Opening the valves routes gases through a straight-through path for a much more aggressive flat-six note, so the character is driver-selectable rather than fixed.
How is it constructed? Both the headers and the exhaust are built from T304L stainless steel, with port-matched flanges, smooth-radius primary tubing, and optimized collectors on the header side. The exhaust uses mandrel-bent tubing and mufflers with fortified casings, and every set is quality-checked and fixture-tested before shipping.
Is professional installation recommended? Yes. Fitting both headers and a full exhaust system involves substantial disassembly, so we recommend a qualified technician to ensure correct fitment, proper flange torque, and a leak-free seal. Detailed installation instructions are included for owners who prefer to tackle it themselves.

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.
