Will the Fabspeed Sport Cat for Porsche 911 Carrera fit my 3.0 or 3.2?

Yes. The Sport Cat for Porsche 911 Carrera covers 3.0L cars from 1976 to 1983 and 3.2L cars from 1984 to 1989. It is a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory component in the same position, and the hardware kit is included, so nothing is cut, welded or fabricated to make it fit.

How much power does it actually add?

2 wheel horsepower and 2 lb-ft, which Fabspeed publishes rather than inflates. The meaningful change is in back pressure and throttle response, because a 300-cell HJS EMITEC core flowing 90 to 93 percent of straight pipe flow lets the engine pick up far more willingly than the original part allowed.

Will it set a check engine light?

No. Fabspeed guarantees the Sport Cat will not generate a catalyst-related check engine light, which is the usual worry with this kind of upgrade on an older fuel-injected car. The part also carries an integrated O2 sensor bung, so the management keeps reading the exhaust and trimming mixture as it should.

How much louder is the car?

Mildly. Expect a small lift in volume and a slightly harder edge to the tone rather than a transformation. This is the option for owners who want the restriction cleared while keeping the car comfortable on a long drive, which is why it sits at the gentle end of Fabspeed's 3.0 and 3.2 range.

That depends on where the car is registered, and it is worth settling before ordering. Fabspeed states the product is intended for closed-course and off-road use and advises checking local, state and federal law before purchase. The part does retain a catalyst core rather than running an open pipe, but BA cannot advise on the rules in any given state.

What else should I look at for a 3.0 or 3.2?

Fabspeed's Maxflo and Supercup exhaust systems address the muffler end of the car, and the RSR Header Muffler Kit replaces headers and muffler together for a much larger gain. The Sport Cat pairs with any of them, since it sits ahead of the muffler and is the first restriction in the path.

Description

Fabspeed Sport Cat for Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 & 3.2

Fabspeed’s Sport Cat for Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 and 3.2 models is what happens when forty years of catalyst development is applied to a car that left the factory with almost none of it. The core is an HJS EMITEC unit built in Germany, a 300-cell design that flows 90 to 93 percent of what a straight pipe flows while still scrubbing enough to keep the car’s management happy. It bolts straight in, saves 9 pounds off the back of the car, and lifts volume and tone a shade without turning a civilised air-cooled 911 into something tiring. For an owner who wants the restriction cleared without changing the character of the car, this is the quiet way to do it.

Bolt-On and Go

Installation is a bolt-on job with the hardware kit included, no cutting and no welding, and the original component can be kept and refitted at any time. Fabspeed guarantees the Sport Cat will not generate a catalyst-related check engine light, which is the failure mode that makes owners nervous about this kind of upgrade on an older fuel-injected car.

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.
