Description

SOUL Performance Street Exhaust System with Dual Wall Tips for 981 Porsche Boxster / Cayman

The SOUL Performance 981 exhaust package delivers a refined and dynamic exhaust experience by pairing its Valved Exhaust System with Long Tube Street Headers, providing meaningful performance gains without triggering a check engine light. The Long Tube Street Headers are engineered with large-diameter, free-flowing catalysts and extended runners to maximize power, throttle response, and the distinctive flat-six engine tone. With the valves closed, the exhaust maintains a composed, daily-driver-friendly sound that avoids excessive volume and unwanted drone. When the valves are opened, the system unleashes a captivating flat-six wail as exhaust gases flow freely through a straight-through path and exit through the selected exhaust tips. Backed by an industry-leading lifetime warranty, this combination represents SOUL Performance’s ideal balance of refinement, performance, and sound.

Development

SOUL Performance developed a dedicated application for the Porsche 981 platform by precisely sizing the 2-inch runners and collectors to extract maximum power from the 3.4L engine while still delivering strong gains on the 2.7L. Appropriately sized, high-flow catalysts were selected to support optimal power output and long-term durability, avoiding the compromises associated with smaller, lower-quality catalysts. The system was engineered to deliver a broad, refined sound spectrum, Cup car inspired and aggressive with the valves open, yet composed and virtually free of drone with the valves closed. SOUL Performance mufflers are specifically designed to minimize droning, maintaining a reserved exhaust character even when paired with aftermarket headers.

Construction

SOUL Performance precision-engineers its headers from T304L stainless steel, incorporating proven design elements such as port-matched flanges, smooth-radius primary tubing, and optimized collectors to maximize exhaust flow and power gains. Every set is meticulously fabricated and rigorously quality-checked prior to shipping. Each system is constructed from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel tubing and features mufflers with fortified casings to ensure long-term durability.

Tips

Choose from several tip styles and finishes, from single wall 321 stainless tips to double wall chrome tips. Logo customization and custom tip colors are available by request. Titanium single wall tips are also available, saving nearly a pound of weight over stainless steel tips.

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 and SOUL’s valve controller fobs, and is compatible with HomeLink.

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.
