I think you’re looking over £3k now for a PSE fitted by an OPC.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I think the official PSE is in short supply and probably well north of £2k fitted. I’m looking for a good quality aftermarket exhaust that’s switchable-recommendations?

POST 2Original post

I think you’re looking over £3k now for a PSE fitted by an OPC. My Cayman R doesn’t have the PSE and they are nigh on impossible to get, so I have looked at options too. My issue is I hate those cheap remotes they supply with the switchable exhausts and I would want one retro fitted to the proper button. Carnewal do a few options which may be worth a look. When I was heading to Germany last year I was going to stop at Carnewal and get his modified exhaust fitted to mine, but we couldn’t agree a time that worked for us.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks - I know the exhausts are hard to come by and at £3k for a main dealer retrofit they can keep them… Most of the aftermarket stuff do seem to have a key fob or remote to switch them which is not ideal but not a deal breaker for me. So given this which would you recommend?

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just to update this - firstly I should have posted 981 not 987 boxster switchable exhaust options… It does seem having spoken to a couple of local OPC’s that supplies of exhausts will be coming through by the end of March. I was quoted £2600 supplied and fitted including the retrofitted interior switch and tailpipes. It’s probably too much for me to justify on a 7 year old Boxster. Any thoughts as to alternatives?
