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.

We're happy to bring a cost effective ($895 MSRP) exhaust solution to the market which delivers an invigorating sound at the press of a button! With the valves closed by default, you'll only get a PSE inspired sound when you desire. DEVELOPMENT: We wanted to design a cost effective valved exhaust that would offer offer the ability to go from “Cruising Sunday to Track Day” at the press of a button with the default setting to be valves closed for a more refined startup experience - no shaking the garage or waking up the neighbors. Minimizing drone was also a priority. Porsche implemented a section of piping in the exhaust that can easily be unbolted and replaced – a perfect location to incorporate valved Muffler Bypass tubes! SOUND: Don’t worry about starting up the car in your garage – valves are closed by default! The OEM driving Porsche characteristics and exhaust note are retained until you open the valves, and when you do you’ll be treated to an aggressive bark as the mufflers are bypassed. Exhaust gases are routed out through bypass tubes with valves open to give a flat six roar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SKeagcju_4 CONSTRUCTION: Each set is made in house by our fabrication team utilizing brand new OEM Porsche muffler piping and application specific valves with a closed mode by default. BOLT ON AND GO: Each exhaust is built and tested in a thick gauge aluminum fixture (which prevents warping) to ensure perfect fitment. Every set and valve controller kit is rigorously quality-checked prior to shipping. LIFETIME WARRANTY: Enjoy your Soul exhaust components with confidence on both the street and track as they are covered by our Lifetime Warranty ! Our team will quickly work with you to resolve any questions or issues that you may have. IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP!

A look as we build a set in house. Notice the gas line which pumps Argon gas into the exhaust as we weld it. Back purging the welds ensures proper penetration and prevents sugaring (a black, crusty appearance of the weld metal on the inside of the pipe) resulting in stronger and more durable welds.
