So after driving the Boxster for a few months, I decided to swap out the exhaust for my first upgrade. Sticking with the budget theme, I went with an eBay exhaust by Beluga Racing. I doubt they made it since I've seen other companies selling what seems to be the exact same unit. Regardless, it was stainless steel and promised a more sporty sound. I had no expectation of a power increase. But it was hard to argue with $299, shipped.

When it arrived, I was fairly impressed with the quality. We'll see how it holds up over time:


So, out with the old:


And in with the new:


I like the exhaust a lot. On start up, it takes that great Porsche sound and gives it a nice snarl. Through the revs, it sounds really good and then even better as it approaches redline. Downside, of course, is that drone between 2200 and 2800 RPM. But at this point, it's not enough to make me go back to stock.

More later. Cheers,
