Description

SOUL Performance Valved Exhaust System with Tips for 987.2 Porsche Boxster / Cayman

The SOUL Performance Products Valved Exhaust System for the Porsche 987.2 Cayman and Boxster is engineered to deliver a true night-and-day change in character at the press of a button. With the valves closed, exhaust gases are routed through SOUL’s mufflers for a refined, sporty tone with minimal drone at highway speeds (with stock headers) and the ability to cruise quietly when needed. Open the valves and the system shifts to a louder, more engaging flat-six sound that’s built for spirited driving and track use. Developed and tested on SOUL’s own 987.2 Cayman S, the system has proven gains of up to 8 whp and 11 ft-lbs at 4,100rpm when paired with SOUL Long Tube Street Headers. Construction features mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel tubing with 2.5-inch OD over-axle pipes, fortified-case mufflers packed with durable sound-deadening material, and reinforced brackets to help prevent the hanger and support failures common on these platforms. It installs as a direct bolt-on, weighs about 5 lbs less than the factory exhaust, and includes a valve controller kit (required for non-PSE cars and optional for PSE cars for manual valve override). Each system is fixture-tested for fitment, foam packed for safe delivery, supplied with new high-grade hardware and installation instructions, and backed by SOUL’s Lifetime Warranty for both street and track use.

Development

Porsche equips the 987.2 Cayman and Boxster with a restrictive, bulky exhaust system that mutes the platform’s natural power and flat-six character. SOUL Performance developed its Valved Exhaust System on its own Project 987.2 Cayman S to ensure the difference between valve modes is both noticeable and refined, even when paired with aftermarket headers. During Dynojet testing, SOUL recorded peak gains of 8 whp and 11 ft-lbs of torque at 4,100 RPM when combined with SOUL Long Tube Street Headers on the project Cayman S. The system is currently used on SOUL’s daily-driven Cayman S and is consistently track tested on the Project Cayman R. Because aftermarket Boxster and Cayman exhaust hangers and supports are often prone to cracking or failure, SOUL’s fortified brackets are designed to help prevent damage during extended street driving and track days.

Construction

Each SOUL Performance system is constructed from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel tubing, including 2.5-inch OD over-axle pipes, and uses mufflers with fortified casings for long-term durability. With the valves closed, exhaust gases are routed through the SOUL muffler, which is packed with high-quality sound-deadening material engineered to withstand abuse and resist blowout over time, while effectively minimizing drone. In this mode, gases pass through the muffler and exit through perforations into the outer piping. With the valves open, exhaust gases are free to exit through large 2.5-inch piping, while the perforations allow the flow to interact with the muffler to produce a fuller, more robust tone. SOUL offers a variety of 321 stainless exhaust tips in multiple styles and finishes, with custom options available upon request, and titanium single-wall tips are also offered to save nearly a pound compared to stainless steel tips.

Bolt On and Go

Each SOUL Performance exhaust is test-fit in a dedicated fixture to verify precise fitment, then foam packed to help ensure it arrives in perfect condition. New high-grade hardware is included for the header-to-exhaust flanges, and detailed installation instructions are provided for a straightforward install that most DIY enthusiasts can complete.

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.
