The sound of this car going into 3rd gear is so epic

That’s the first AM exhaust for the 981 that I actually like

15:05 that's genuine feelings. i can feel that on the other side of the atlantic

Oh shit . I've watched a few of your M3 videos in the past. I come back and you have a 981 CS. I've had a 987.2 CS for a month. Wonderful cars

Epic video! Thank you again for choosing us to help bring out the beast! -Mike

Last week we just installed a Soul non-valved exhaust on my 2016 Cayman. . My car was bought new by me in So Cal and doesn't have many miles and no rust so everything came off no problem. Watching you deal with those rusty bolts and nuts sure did not look like fun, but good on you for getting through that part. I like the fit and finish on the Soul exhaust as mine went on in no time with the car up on a lift. The pops, bangs and burbles from both on and off the throttle being the best part of the whole thing to me. I also like the slightly smaller size and a little less weight. After the install I wiped everything down with WD 40 and will have to check my pipes to see what they look like now after the first run in. I ordered my car in Jan 2016 after I read that Porsche were going to a 4 cylinder turbo in the new 17 models and was always glad I did but the one big option I did not get on my minimalist build was the Sport Exhaust .I even bought a slightly used OEM Sport exhaust years ago but was never motivated to put it on. I like what you have done so far with your Cayman, you are helping show what great cars the 981 models are and how to make them even better.

Just installed Soul performance exhaust ( cat back) with BMC air filters and finished with a tune via FVD brombacher on my 981 cayman s. Love the sound. I have zero regrets. Impressive!

Sounds pretty amazing.

Sounds amazing. Makes me miss my 997!

Oh man absolutely glorious!!! Love it!!!

Good job - sounds great

The Cayman is really growing on me

Tommy! Sounds good!

My soul is also exhausted.

A piece of advice to anyone doing this job, drench all the nuts and bolts in plus gas, leave overnight, use some heat on the nuts, then use a damaged nut extraction socket, they are very cheap to buy, this is the life saver, grips what’s left of the nut and digs into it, with the heat on it to expand it and the threads cleaned up as best possible, they should come off, I just did it and all were i off in 1.5 hours and was pretty easy tbh!

Try a DeWalt 90 degree drilling attachment for tight drill requirement. Good vid, good sound!

Soul Ex is great. Sounds great! A long project. Too bad about the line that got worn and hope it can be repaired fairly easily.

Just bought a Soul exhaust after listening to this video like 6 times

Great vid, great sound. Put yer seatbelt on.

Man that sounds sweet.

Great choice I love my soul headers

LMFAO, I said OMG at about 10 seconds...just before you. Sound is intoxicating

My friend that sound is amazing :) Great job with the installment

Tommy you're going to make me spend more money 😄 I just ordered the X73 (which is on back order till June) 😭

I wonder if in the end if it would’ve been easier just to remove the headers. I always hear everybody say that removing the headers on a Porsche is super easy. So I wonder if it would’ve saved a few days by just buying some new exhaust gaskets? Anyways awesome install and such a rad track car🏁🏁🏁👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Great vid! You're awesome. You def earned my sub.

I've got the Soul Performance Valvetronic exhaust with carbon fiber tips on my F80 M3 which I think sounds great. Too bad they're discontinued since Nov 2019 though.

Beautiful

Yup Pb blaster is 10x better then Wd 40, the exhaust sounds great by the way. Hay Tommy where’s the track day video?

I'm hearing good things about this brand. Looking at their cat deletes presently. Would also love to see which tuner you are going to go with.

Great video, thanks for the walkthrough. I'm having a ton of fun with those rusty bolts on my 981 right now. Did you ever reclamp down the new exhaust on the support bracket, like the stock one was? Or just left it resting on top of the bracket?

Great video Tommy 🔥

THAT is how it's supposed to sound!!

Sounds great... and none of the stupid pops and bangs noises that I hear on so many 981 exhaust videos... just a nice burbly overrun noise, amazing. Any ideas why your car doesn't do that?

Those bolts were a pain the as* to remove. Took me the whole day to remove my stock exhaust and upgrade it to PSE system w/ a valve controller aswell.

I pray one day to own even a base 981 cayman

"Tommy are you kidding me?" lol

Now that the system has been installed for the past 16 months what are your overall thoughts on the setup? Has the color changed much or was the color change due to the product being covered with an oil as a part of the manufacturing process?

Mini GT3 😍

Rusted bolts. ALWAYS happens: 3 come out oh so easily and the fourth decides it wants to be the ball buster. Yea, stainless nuts and bolts!

Sounds really good! Im thinking of getting this. Does it drone? If so, scale 1 - 10 bad is the drone? 10 being the worst😁

Do you have any pictures of this exhaust with the GT4 rear diffuser?

Is there a Part 2, where you hook up the controller? I have installed the Porsche Sport Exhaust system on my Boxster 981 but not the controller yet. I actually have the Soul controller unit with transmitter. Curious how you tie into the vacuum and electrical on your vehicle.

👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

Can you remove the mufflers with our removing the bracket assembly (attached to the transmission)?

@Tommy Did you sell your OEM sports exhaust or you still have it and want to sell?

I really want to get into a cayman but idk what years to get my budget is sub 30 so I don’t think I can go past 2011 what’s your opinion if I hold out another year or two I can get an f80 most likely but something about a Porsche

Hey bro how much paid for the car? I dont know if its good deal or not. Seems like 981 cayman is not going any lower in todays market. I am looking at 2014 base cayman one owner 27k miles and $47900. What do you think bro?

Did you go with the NON valve? if so is it too loud all the time?

How does car feel size wise it seems super small

I removed without removing the bracket 😬

WHY OH WHY do people feel a need to change out the exhaust on this wonderful car? It already sounds "sporty" from the factory. I suppose some people just HAVE to modify a car, no matter how good it ,might already be

I think instead of an awesome sounding exhaust, this is just a terrible sounding microphone...

Never liked the way Soul sounds. Fabspeed is much better and better quality.
