Product Description
The SOUL Performance Exhaust System is designed for Porsche 981 Boxster and Cayman owners who want a more aggressive naturally aspirated flat-six exhaust note without the complexity of a valved system. Developed as a lighter, valveless alternative to SOUL's Valved Exhaust, the Performance Exhaust delivers its more aggressive sound at all times while using high-quality mufflers to control unwanted drone and rasp.
SOUL specifically developed the system to provide substantially more volume than the factory Porsche Sport Exhaust with its valves open while maintaining a refined exhaust character. The mufflers help produce a fuller, more robust tone rather than simply increasing overall volume, making the system suitable for spirited street driving as well as track use where sound quality and exhaust flow are priorities.
The system uses 2.5-inch OD over-axle piping constructed from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel. Reinforced muffler casings and durable sound-absorbing material are designed to withstand extended street and track use without degrading over time.
For owners pairing the exhaust with aftermarket headers, the Performance Exhaust offers an aggressive overall sound while retaining mufflers to help control excessive rasp and cabin resonance. Unlike the SOUL Valved Exhaust System, there are no exhaust valves or selectable sound modes—the system provides its full exhaust character whenever the car is running.
DETAILS:
Fits 2013–2016 Porsche 981 Boxster and Cayman models, including Base, S, and GTS applications
Compatible with 2.7L and 3.4L naturally aspirated flat-six engines
Direct bolt-on replacement for the factory rear exhaust system
Fixed, non-valved exhaust design provides consistent exhaust sound at all times
Designed as a lighter, simpler alternative to SOUL's Valved Exhaust System
Produces greater exhaust volume than factory Porsche Sport Exhaust with the valves open
High-quality mufflers help minimize unwanted drone and rasp while maintaining a full, aggressive exhaust tone
Well suited for use with factory headers or upgraded aftermarket headers
Features 2.5-inch OD over-axle piping
Constructed from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel tubing
Reinforced muffler casings provide additional durability for extended street and track use
Mufflers use durable sound-absorbing material designed to resist deterioration over time
Each system is quality-checked and fixture-tested prior to shipment to help ensure accurate fitment
Direct bolt-on installation with detailed installation instructions included
Includes SOUL Straight-Cut Single-Wall exhaust tips in Signature Satin
Alternate SOUL tip styles and finishes are available by special request
Backed by SOUL Performance Products' Lifetime Warranty for both street and track use
PORSCHE SPORT EXHAUST (PSE):
The SOUL Performance Exhaust is a fixed, non-valved exhaust system.
Vehicles originally equipped with Porsche Sport Exhaust can use the SOUL Performance Exhaust, but the factory exhaust-valve functionality is no longer used after installation. The exhaust will maintain its more aggressive sound at all times rather than switching between quiet and loud modes.
For owners who want to retain selectable exhaust volume and valve functionality, the SOUL Valved Exhaust System is the more appropriate configuration.
TIP CONFIGURATION:
This DasMotoring listing includes SOUL Straight-Cut Single-Wall exhaust tips in Signature Satin.
To keep ordering simple, alternate tip finishes and styles are not offered through the standard product options. If you would like a different SOUL tip configuration, contact DasMotoring before ordering and we can confirm availability and pricing.
SOUL also offers alternate stainless steel and titanium tip styles and finishes by special request. Titanium single-wall tips save nearly one pound compared with stainless steel tips.
PERFORMANCE VS. VALVED EXHAUST:
The SOUL Performance Exhaust uses a fixed, non-valved configuration for drivers who want a consistently aggressive exhaust note, reduced complexity, and high exhaust flow.
The SOUL Valved Exhaust System adds controllable exhaust valves, allowing the driver to significantly reduce exhaust volume when desired while retaining an aggressive flat-six sound with the valves open.
For owners who want the car to sound aggressive at all times and do not need selectable exhaust modes, the Performance Exhaust provides the simpler solution. For frequent highway driving, early-morning use, or owners who want the ability to quiet the car on demand, the Valved Exhaust provides greater flexibility.
FITMENT NOTE:
This listing is intended for standard 981 Boxster and Cayman Base, S, and GTS models.
The 981 Cayman GT4, Boxster Spyder, and GT4 Clubsport use a separate SOUL Performance Exhaust System designed specifically for those vehicles. SOUL maintains a distinct GT4 / Spyder / Clubsport exhaust application.
