The Boxster's exhaust piping is an oddball size so you can't actually fit any stock size CC inserts in there. I think it's somewhere between 1.75" and 2". I tried 2" CC inserts and they wouldn't fit.
I just installed these in my car...now if I could just get it to start I'd tell you how it sounds.

By the way I was basically running straight pipes, headers, no cats, eBay glass pack and it was way way too loud. And I like loud cars but this was to much. It was great for idling and drivin slow by to couldn't step on it with out feeling like a total dick
