Soul Performance Sport Downpipe for 982 Porsche 718 Boxster & Cayman

Soul Performance Sport Downpipe for 982 Porsche 718 Boxster & Cayman

By opting for a bolt-on solution, one can replace the constrictive stock catalytic converter with a high-flow HJS HD 200-cell catalytic converter downpipe. This upgrade delivers notable improvements in power, responsiveness, and even enhances the turbo sound. Importantly, this modification ensures that there will be no check engine light triggered, and it effectively eliminates the presence of noxious fumes.

Development & Testing

• In its factory configuration, the 718 model tends to be relatively quiet. However, by substituting the restrictive stock catalytic converter with a high-performance alternative, both the drivability of the vehicle and the captivating turbo sounds can be significantly enhanced. Importantly, this upgrade does not introduce any unfavorable elements to the overall exhaust tone. The inclusion of the HJS HD 200-cell catalytic converter, along with the incorporation of smooth mandrel bent piping ranging from 90mm to dual 55mm outlets, promotes improved throttle response and delivers a more exhilarating exhaust note. This bolt-on solution is remarkably easy to install, requiring no modifications, and offers the advantage of being reversible. Overall, it serves as an excellent choice to make your Boxster or Cayman a more thrilling driving experience.

Construction

• Every individual downpipe is meticulously assembled using mandrel bent T304L stainless steel, characterized by its robust wall thickness. Following the assembly process, rigorous quality checks are carried out to ensure adherence to the highest standards. To guarantee exceptional weld quality and longevity, back purged TIG welding techniques are employed, ensuring optimal weld penetration.

HJS Catalysts

• The catalytic converters utilized are of the utmost quality, renowned for their industry-leading flow characteristics and exceptional durability. These converters exhibit impressive efficiency, enabling compliance with stringent EURO 4 emission standards while simultaneously facilitating an increase in flow, all while ensuring that no check engine light is triggered. The HD design incorporates premium triple foil winding, maximizing its strength and resilience. As an additional measure to enhance durability, a brazing stripe is included, effectively preventing the core from shifting or sustaining damage even under sustained high horsepower abuse. The 200-cell design features a premium wash coat of precious metals, ensuring a high level of catalytic effectiveness even with the increased exhaust flow.

Power

• Verified independent dyno testing conducted at Growler Motor Labs has unveiled conclusive and repeatable peak gains of 14whp and 24ft-lbs of torque. Notably, these gains are accompanied by a noticeable improvement in the mid RPM range, further enhancing the performance characteristics of the vehicle.

Bolt On & Go

• Every individual downpipe undergoes a rigorous quality-checking process to maintain the highest standards. Additionally, each downpipe is meticulously tested in a fixture to ensure perfect fitment. To safeguard its pristine condition during transportation, the downpipe is carefully foam packed. Furthermore, new hardware specifically designed for the two bolt flanges is included, simplifying the installation process. Thorough and comprehensive installation instructions are thoughtfully provided in the package, making it a straightforward task that can be easily accomplished by most DIY enthusiasts.
