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.

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

Are you looking for an easy way to spruce up the look and performance of your Boxster/Cayman for the New Year? Our Porsche Boxster/Cayman X-Pipes with Carbon Fiber Dual Tips is a cost effective upgrade that truly adds power and a much better look than the stock OEM Porsche muffler tips. View attachment 179081 Our X Pipe system replaces either the OEM Porsche H-Pipe, which flows very poorly, or the OEM Porsche single pipe on the original 987.1, which flows even worse. View attachment 179097 Its obvious that Porsche had a budget for the 987.1 exhaust, but that’s ok, we have a great solution to remedy the OEM tip blues. View attachment 179105 These exhaust tips for the Boxster/Cayman are a quick bolt-on option for upgrading the look of the already aggressive rear-end. Available in polished or carbon fiber finishes, these exhaust tips are the extra flair that will set your Porsche apart. The dual 3.5" outlets are constructed from high quality T304L stainless steel which increase exhaust flow and smooths out exhaust pulses, giving your Porsche more documented power. View attachment 179089 It is not often an installation this simple can add a significant increase in power and look. In Stock and Ready to Ship. You can order directly from the Website or Private message.

With Fabspeed 's holiday sale, I bought the Carbon X-Pipe, to compliment my member-sourced new-to-me FVD Brombacher cat-back. I will be very excited to get it all connected up.

POST 3Original post

I've had their black chrome X-pipe on my 2016 Cayman for two years. Looks great, easy to clean, is lighter and sounds meaner than stock. What's not to like, especially when it's on sale! :drivingskid:

POST 4Original post

You indicate the X-Pipe to be a relatively simple mod but I'm reading where folks are struggling to separate the mufflers enough to remove the factory unit and install the modified X-Pipe. Do you have suggestions as to a method to do this? I'm not overly excited about this mod if it's going to be difficult. Thanks.

POST 5Original post

Use Irwin quick grips to spread the mufflers after loosening up the straps and removing them. After some struggle, it turned out to be 10 mins job... There is a thread where I posted my installation experience..
