SOUL Performance Sport Headers for 991.2 Porsche 911 Carrera

SOUL Performance Products’ Sport Headers for the Porsche 991.2 Carrera are engineered to wake up the 3.0L twin-turbo flat-six with quicker boost response, stronger midrange, and a more urgent exhaust note, all without sacrificing ground clearance for daily use. Optimized 3-into-1 merge collectors replace the restrictive factory design, while carefully sized runners increase exhaust velocity into the turbo, smoothing the flow path and helping the engine pull harder across the rev range.By sizing the header outlet larger than the OEM turbo inlet and refining the internal volume, these Sport Headers pair cleanly with the turbo’s efficiency map, delivering gains of roughly 12 whp and 20ft-lb of torque on a tuned base 991.2 Carrera, with noticeably crisper throttle response and more usable power in every gear. Weighing about 5.4lb less than the stock manifolds (9.9lb vs 15.3lb), they also trim weight from the nose of the car, subtly improving overall feel. Each set is designed and built in-house at SOUL’s Willow Grove, PA facility from high-grade T304L stainless, then fixture-checked for precise, direct bolt-on fitment on all 991.2 Carrera variants with or without PSE. As with all SOUL exhaust components, the 991.2 Carrera Sport Headers are backed by a Lifetime Warranty for both street and track use, making them a compelling, no-compromise upgrade for owners seeking real performance gains, sharper response, and more character from their 3.0L turbo 911.

Development

SOUL Performance was determined to optimize performance and enhance response while also considering clearance for daily driven vehicles. Their expertly designed 3-into-1 merge collector ensures improved response compared to the factory design, while the runners effectively increase exhaust velocity into the collector and turbo. Upon examination of the factory headers, one can observe a support in the middle runner, which hampers the smooth flow path from the exhaust port. Overall, the factory design is quite basic and leaves ample room for improvement.
To achieve a seamless flow path into the turbo, the header outlet was sized at 1.63″, surpassing the factory turbo inlet measurement of approximately 1.54″ ID. The combination of the internal volume of the header and the resulting design enhancements harmoniously align with the efficiency map of the turbo, resulting in noticeably quicker boost response and increased power throughout the RPM range. With each press of the gas pedal, the car responds promptly, and each gear delivers more usable power before necessitating a downshift.
In contrast to the factory header’s double wall design, SOUL Performance Products’ header features a single wall design, resulting in a more aesthetically appealing sharper edge to the exhaust and an amplified turbo sound. This design modification brings forth a delightful increase in exhaust volume and enhances the overall tone quality, all without introducing drone or undesirable characteristics. Anticipate an augmented presence of burbles and sharper pops during gear shifts and upon deceleration.

Construction

Every set of headers is meticulously assembled in-house in the USA, employing laser-cut flanges and mandrel bent, thick wall.065″ T304L stainless steel. The welding process is executed with back purged TIG welding, utilizing ARCAL Prime argon gas to ensure optimal weld penetration and durability. In the fabrication process, thick gauge aluminum fixtures are employed, serving as excellent heat sinks during welding and effectively preventing warping of both the products and the fixtures themselves. This meticulous approach guarantees impeccable fitment of the headers.

Power

Experience a substantial boost in driving performance with maximum power gains of 12whp and 20ft-lbs that swiftly manifest and persist until redline. This notable increase in power enhances the overall driving experience. Furthermore, the installation of a custom Pro Tune would fully capitalize on the enhanced flow, unlocking even greater gains in performance.

Bolt On & Go

Each component undergoes a rigorous quality-check process to ensure optimal performance and reliability. Additionally, thorough testing in a fixture guarantees precise fitment. To ensure that the components arrive in impeccable condition, they are carefully foam packed. Furthermore, the package includes new high-grade hardware and OEM Porsche gaskets, providing all the necessary elements for a seamless installation process.

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.
