Performance Exhaust and Header for Boxster

[Gary in BR]

The Youtube video posted on this thread is of my car.

I had the straight pipes installed over a year ago and kept them for about a year . My car is a daily driver with over 140,000 miles at this point. The set up was great unless I was on the highway and trying to have a conversation on the cell phone. I now have another modified setup, it is posted on youtube also.

I have more info and pictures I can direct everyone too if there is any intrest in this set up.

Gary, please post those links because they didn't show up in your post! I'd like to see them.

Never mind. I found it on the previous page.

Man that's loud. I can't imagine having a car any louder than mine with Che's headers and exhaust on it.

Hey all! I just recently purchased a cat-back system from Che also....and I can tell you like others have said, the quality is very good indeed. My son (who also owns a Boxster) was a welder for a few years, and he took a look at it and noted how the welds were done very nice.
As far as the sound goes, my Boxster S was pretty quiet for some reason, so the exhaust system helped a lot on my car. I could go for it to be a little louder myself, but I think most will be very happy with the deeper sound. I do get a little resonance at about 2,500 RPM, but to me that's when it sounds the best!
As far as modding the car, I'm a big fan of not having a "stock" anything, I don't think I have ever kept a car stock and probably never will.....doing stuff to my car is what I live for.
I don't think just the exhaust alone makes a big performance gain, but coupled with an EVO intake and chip, I do believe HP is gained.
