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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Are you looking to increase the sportscar sound and performance of your 987 Boxster/Cayman ? Fabspeed offers a full line of Dyno proven performance products that is sure to give you exactly what you are looking for, whether you want to concentrate on maximum track-competition performance, street use, or a blend of both. No matter which direction you go, performance optimization starts with the headers. Our Porsche 987 Boxster/Cayman Sport Headers improve exhaust flow for a Dyno-proven power increase and significant increase in sports car sound. The best part – no Check Engine Light! Initially developed in 2004, over 13 years of continual improvement has given birth to the top-quality sport headers we sell today. Fabspeed’s founder and owner, Joe Fabiani, bought a 987 and personally Dyno developed various styles of headers headers with and without catalytic convertors, exhaust systems, tips, and tie downs. While developing and improving our 987 Sport Headers we have directly applied expert feedback from PCA Driver’s Education members, PCA and POC Club Racers, Cayman ITC Pro Racers, and Professional Racers in Koni and IMSA Continental. For those who want something more aggressive, our Porsche 987 Boxster/Cayman Long Tube Race Headers are designed for racing, track events, and off-road use. These headers maximize the horsepower and torque potential of the Porsche 987 engine by increasing exhaust flow from the engine cylinders straight into the exhaust system utilizing world-class merge collectors. To replace the factory mufflers, we have three amazing options; our Maxflo, our Supercup, and our TrackTec Valved Exhaust. Our Porsche 987 Boxster/Cayman Maxflo Exhaust System dramatically improves sports car sound and throttle response with upgraded Maxflo mufflers and world-class inlet tubing. This system is a great choice for those who are looking to get a little more out of their 987, adding +5 WHP and +4 ft/lbs. of TQ. For those who are looking for something more aggressive, we have our Supercup Exhaust System. The 987 Boxster/Cayman Supercup Exhaust System is an aggressive track-designed exhaust system providing maximum flow and power, resulting in +10 WHP, +8 ft/lbs. of TQ, while saving -18 lbs. off the rear of the vehicle. This system is recommended for off-road and track use only. If you can’t decide on which Fabspeed system fits your needs best, we have our TrackTec Valvetronic Exhaust. This is a valvetronic exhaust that offers the best of both world’s depending on the position of the valves. With the valves closed, the system sounds exactly like our Maxflo system as the air is directed through the mufflers. Open the valves, and the exhaust gas flows straight out the rear of the vehicle, creating a more aggressive sound than even the Supercup. All systems include Deluxe Bolt-On Dual Style Tips in your choice of finish to compliment your vehicles look and style.

I have the 987 sport headers with cats coming soon. I started a thread here: https://www.planet-9.com/987-cayman-and-boxster-modifications/235635-fabspeed-headers-cats.html . I will add to this thread after the install. We get winter here (meaning salty roads) so it may be a bit before I have some road test results. One of my current catalysts is bad and my MIL comes on occasionally so that was part of my motivation replace the headers. I am also interested in the improved power and sound of equal length primaries with a proper collector, and a higher flow cat.
