PSE for 987 Owners!!!

Hey, I got great news from Porsche today regarding Porsche Sport Exhaust (PSE). It will be coming out this summer. Here is a copy of the actual e-mail I received from PCNA today:

"Hello:

The Boxster S is a great vehicle!
We will be offering the PSE around May/June of this year. We are currently assembling the kits and are in the process of having them shipped from Germany. There is no current pricing for this as of yet. I assume that will be done around the release date. The part number for the kit will be 987 044 200 00. I hope this information helps and have a good day.

Best Regards,

Adam Miller

BM, expect it to cost about $1,700 give-or-take $1K. The kits for the 997 are about $1,800. Plus labor to get it installed. If I do it, I will order from Sunset Porsche (Phil Coy is the contact)...no sales tax...about $75 for shipping.

Heck, PSE kits for the 986 still run about $1,650!

I may have to ask Mark (Houston C4S) for a test-ride before I spend the moo-la$$ !!

I'd be curious as to the sound difference of the PSE on the 2.7 vs the 3.2-4. In some ways I think the engine sound on the 2.7 is better (dare I say, more high-pitched and F1).

It's certainly louder except in 1st gear.

Hi,

I've heard alot of people say that. I've even read several articles which state that the 2.5L cars have the best exhaust sound of the lot...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Let's see...compared to the fabspeed muffler (which I heard bad reviews of) $1495...


And compared to ANY OTHER muffler out there which are all $1600+


I think a factory muffler that I can keep for ever and order from Porsche for $1750 is not bad at all.


I was actually predicting $2000+

BM, I am just guessing at the potential price. We will know more in a couple months. I will NOT go aftermarket. The ones I have seen, hang below the bumper. I don't like that look. Plus, if something goes wrong, I want Porsche's name on the hook.

Guys, just wondering, if I did get the PSE...would my stock Boxster S muffler be worth anything? If so, how much? Thanks!
