    911 owner here, i like the sound of the flat 4, i really hate the self proclaimed Porsche “purists” who try and talk crap about it.
    F4 has been and always will be heritage to Porsche.

    The F4T gets a lot of hate, but honestly I quite like the sound. Especially on the earlier models with particulate filters. It's deep and throaty, and this exhaust enhances it even more. Nice car.

    As an owner of a GT4 and previous 911 owner, in my opinion, the Cayman platform is superior. Your car is beautiful. I just can't understand the need for aftermarket exhausts on the Cayman - and I am not picking on you specifically. My '07 911 needed it. The newer Caymans don't need it - IMHO.

    Matt - It appears that you first installed the AWE Track edition exhaust back in 2017 and then added the Soul Performance Catted downpipe here in 2019.
    Did the addition of the downpipe meet or surpass your expectations? Was it worth the extra $ and effort. It sounds amazing and seems to have really improved the exhaust note. Did it also increase the volume significantly?
    I am thinking of copying you with one slight mod; I will use the AWE Track (ie straight pipe) exhaust on one side and the AWE Touring (ie small muffler) exhaust on the other side to reduce the volume slightly. Do you ever find you setup to be too loud?
    Regarding the Techart rear diffusor - did installing that disable the reversing camera? If I install an exhaust system like yours, can I easily install the rear diffusor afterwards or would you recommend installing both at the same time?

    • @mattchowtx
      @mattchowtx  4 роки тому +6

      Hey Jeffrey!
      The downpipes was just the next available performance modification on the market. It made the exhaust deeper, volume wasn't anything more significant than the track exhaust by itself. The great thing about the AWE setup is that you can change as necessary to suit your volume wants. The techart rear piece doesn't disable the rear sensors or camera, everything works as factory and can be installed at anytime.

    Hi Matt!
    Great video! gives me inspiration and ideas on what I could do with mine.
    I'm planning to get a similar set of upgrades for my 718 Boxster, particularly:
    Techart front lip - was this easy to install? i.e. a DIY job
    Techart rear diffusor - was this easy to install?
    TWL Carbon Rear Ducktail Spoiler - I have a GT metallic silver boxster so I'll try going for a silver colour on this wing.

    So I suppose installing a downpipe makes quite a bit of difference, especially in terms of volume.

    Hi Matt - I love the sound of your car. I would love it if you could make a video of how it sounds whilst driving it.
    I have a 2017 718-S with PSE and manual transmission and I want to modify the exhaust note.
    I see that Soul Performance now offers both a catted and a decatted downpipe plus various exhaust systems including a straight through 'track edition'. Based on the comments that you made on your video, the exhaust systems had not yet been created which is why you went with AWE.
    I am wondering how your car sounds compared to:
    Soul Performance - catted downpipe with straight through exhaust:
    ua-cam.com/video/I1MmAQSeM58/v-deo.html
    This is a very similar setup to what you have but your car seems to me to sound even better.
    Check this out as well:
    Soul Performance - catless downpipe with straight pipes
    ua-cam.com/video/8yp1j1EA5oo/v-deo.html
    This system does not seem to sound as good as yours while revving at idle. Your's sounds much better. Do you agree?
