Does SOUL Performance make a Porsche 718 downpipe?

Yes. The SOUL Performance Competition Downpipe is built specifically for the 982 Porsche 718 Boxster and Cayman and is backed by SOUL's Lifetime Warranty.

Which 982 Porsche 718 models does this downpipe fit?

The SOUL Performance Porsche 718 downpipe fits all 982 Boxster and Cayman variants from 2017 onward, including the base, S, T, and GTS models. Fitment is specific to the chassis and model years listed in the Applications section.

How does the SOUL Performance Porsche 718 downpipe change the sound?

The SOUL Performance Porsche 718 downpipe delivers a major increase in turbo snarls and crackles with no intrusive cabin drone. Smooth mandrel-bent piping transitioning from 90mm to dual 55mm outlets sharpens throttle response and adds an aggressive, engaging exhaust note compared to the factory equipment.

Is an ECU tune required with the SOUL Performance Porsche 718 downpipe?

A tune is not required to install the downpipe, but SOUL Performance strongly recommends one. The significant increase in exhaust flow can produce boost spikes on an untuned car, and a custom tune will also address any check engine light concerns for track use.

How is the SOUL Performance Porsche 718 downpipe constructed?

SOUL builds the Porsche 718 downpipe from thick-wall T304L mandrel-bent stainless steel. Every unit is fixture-tested for precise fitment, quality-checked, and foam packed before shipping. New hardware and installation instructions are included.

Is professional installation recommended for the SOUL Performance Porsche 718 downpipe?

Yes. Installing through a qualified technician ensures correct fitment and a proper seal, though the design is straightforward enough that most experienced DIY enthusiasts can complete it using the included instructions.

Description

SOUL Performance Competition Downpipe for 982 Porsche 718 Boxster / Cayman

The SOUL Performance Porsche 718 downpipe is engineered for the 982 Boxster and Cayman to dramatically increase turbo character, snarls, and crackles while maintaining a cabin free of intrusive drone. Designed as a reversible upgrade that requires no cutting or modifications, it installs directly into the factory exhaust system and reduces weight by 7.1lbs compared to the factory equipment. Smooth mandrel-bent piping transitions from 90mm down to dual 55mm outlets to promote improved throttle response and a more engaging exhaust note. Each unit is fabricated from thick-wall, mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel, then fixture-tested, quality-checked, and foam packed for safe delivery, with new hardware and detailed installation instructions included. SOUL Performance strongly recommends pairing this Porsche 718 downpipe with an ECU tune for optimal drivability and performance, and it is intended for track and race use only.

Development

SOUL Performance developed this solution for drivers who find the 718 too subdued in factory form. Compared to the factory equipment, this downpipe improves drivability and unlocks the turbo’s character with a major increase in snarling and crackles, delivering an aggressive sound without introducing cabin drone. Smooth mandrel-bent piping transitions from 90mm down to dual 55mm outlets for improved throttle response and a more exciting exhaust note. Designed to bolt in with no modifications required, it offers a fully reversible way to make the 718 Boxster or Cayman more engaging. Due to the significant increase in exhaust flow, SOUL Performance strongly recommends an ECU tune with this modification to prevent boost spikes.

Bolt-On and Go

Each exhaust component is rigorously quality-checked and fixture-tested by SOUL Performance to ensure precise fitment, then foam packed to help it arrive in perfect condition. New high-grade hardware and detailed installation instructions are included.

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.
