Frequently Asked Questions

Does SOUL Performance make an X-Pipe for the 996? Yes. The SOUL 996 X-Pipe is built by SOUL Performance for the Porsche 996 Carrera, using large diameter 2.5 inch T304L stainless steel piping to increase flow over the factory system.
Which models does this fit? The SOUL 996 X-Pipe is engineered for the Porsche 911 Carrera (996), covering the 996.1 (1999-2001, 3.4L) and 996.2 (2002-2004, 3.6L). It does not fit the 996 Turbo or C4S.
How does it change the sound? SOUL engineers the 996 X-Pipe to sharpen tone and character while controlling unwanted resonance. An X-pipe design yields a hollower, more unified exhaust tone compared to a split-bank setup. The final sound depends on the rest of the exhaust setup.
Is an ECU tune required? A tune is not required to fit the SOUL 996 X-Pipe. Many owners add a tune afterward to maximize the power gains from the increased flow, but the X-Pipe bolts on and functions correctly without one.
How is the X-Pipe constructed? The SOUL 996 X-Pipe is built from thick-wall 2.5 inch diameter, .065inch T304L stainless steel with smooth mandrel bends and thick flanges. Each unit is fixture-tested for perfect fitment and foam packed before shipping.
Is professional installation recommended? Yes. SOUL Performance recommends installing the 996 X-Pipe through a qualified technician to ensure correct fitment and a proper seal, protecting the stainless steel construction and the exhaust’s long-term durability.

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.
