Because it’s old and second hand it is basically two 3 cylinder motors straight piped and sounds terrible. I’m going to build a custom system with a cross pipe similar to the 987 and later cars.
I'm pretty sure there isn't any packing inside these mufflers. Its a bear to take the mufflers off without removing the bumper. Thats how I did it the first time too.
Remember this is part 4 of the weight reduction videos. I bought this used from a local guy but it is just the generic one listed from a hundred different vendors on eBay.
It’s terrible drone and would never recommend it. I will be getting a custom exhaust by a local shop soon. One with a cross pipe joining the 2 sides of the exhaust
I’m loving this build. It’s a great DIY tool, but also very representative of sensible modifications many 986 owners may make. How much weight have you lost in total?
I am super jealous of anyone that has nice weather and good roads, cars don't rust away and everything comes apart easily lol
You can always move bro. I did. It wasn’t hard
Thank you so much for saying bolt sizes and such! Great time saver, doin gods work!
No problem. enjoy the car
Good video, thanks much !
No problem. I hope you enjoy all my Porsche videos
How are you finding it in terms of droning? Mine is terrible between 2k - 3k rpm.

YES, mine does too, have you figured out how to fix it yet?

Super weight reduction. Would you write name and link of this exhaust in the description ...?

Just buy 2 bucket seats like recaro pole position with fixed brackets and no rails. That's easy 60 pounds less.
We have a video installing seats as well. It’s pretty light now
Would you recommend eBay exhaust for 986 boxter s? Is it better than stock? I really want more of the same tone sound
