Bespoke catalytic converter sections allow us to go up to \u003cstrong\u003efull 3” diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e in both catted and catless configurations. The cat pipes then go into a 3” X-Pipe assembly. While some X-Pipe designs use 3” bends, they are cut and welded together and thus reduce the diameter of the pipe to make the X. Our X-Pipe is unique in that it is cast to maintain strength and reduce the amount of welds in the system, and we take advantage of that casting to elongate the X to maintain the tubing diameter and maximize flow characteristics. Exhaust flow leaving the X-Pipe assembly then exits out through 3” diameter piping all the way to the tip exits.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-225x150.jpg 225w, https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-510x340.jpg 510w, https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-64x43.jpg 64w, https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing.jpg 1280w\" height=\"682\" width=\"1024\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/soulpp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Soul-Performance-Products-Porsche-992-Carrera-Cat-Bypass-Pipe-Fixturing-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13610\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLengthening the flow path and blending the exhaust flow in the X-Pipe creates a smoother, higher pitch than shorter separated banks. To further refine the tone of the exhaust note, we first implemented four resonators similar to our 996\/997\/991 Turbo X-Pipe systems. We reduced the resonators to two, which still refined the exhaust note but allowed more overall sound volume for the driver to enjoy. The 992 platform does have a drone range of approximately 2,000-2,400rpm and the less restriction you have the more pronounced this becomes. We experimented with different lengths and locations of Helmholtz anti-drone tubes to reduce drone. While not eliminated, we’ve reduced it to what we would consider a reasonable level for most drivers looking to maximize the potential of the 992 platform with an aggressive exhaust system. Once we determined the most effective length of the drone tubes separately from each other, we then looped them together into a more symmetrical and aesthetically appealing design while capping them internally to remain functional.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEliminating the valves was a unique challenge. You cannot simply unplug the electronically actuated valves. If you do – expect limp mode. You cannot take the electronic valve actuators off the mechanical valve bodies and leave them plugged in. If you do – limp mode. \u003cem\u003eFor the time being\u003c\/em\u003e – the factory valves need to be mounted to a bespoke bracket that creates a start\/stop point for the electronic valve actuators to mimic factory valve functionality. Our system comes with these bespoke brackets to ensure there is no CEL or limp mode.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDRIVING IMPRESSIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRevel in a bolder, fuller exhaust note with a smoother, higher pitched tone. You’ll notice more mechanical feedback and a ripping growl as you climb in RPMs and be treated to increased burbles during deceleration in Sport mode. The turbos make themselves known, especially with the catless Competition version which is particularly sinister with added whistle and induction sound. Both systems deliver an enjoyable, refined and distinctly Porsche exhaust note without rasp and with reduced drone in spite of their free flowing nature. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThat said, these systems are aggressive and if you desire a drone free experience we recommend our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/soulpp.com\/product\/porsche-992-turbo-sport-catalytic-converters-with-pse\/\"\u003eSport Catalytic Converters\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"SOUL | 992 Turbo STREET Performance Exhaust System\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PHJprqjvUQs\" height=\"641\" width=\"1140\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003ePOWER\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpressing our intent to support big power builds, World Motorsports was up to the task of proving performance gains.
