Our exhausts have earned praise from owners and the press alike, due
to their unique "Jekyll and Hyde" personality. We spend considerable
time and effort during development to achieve remarkable civility when
idling and at part throttle cruising, while also producing a war-cry
wail when full throttle is applied.
Our exhausts are also like bespoke suits: each is hand made utilizing
only the finest casing and packing materials, and they command respect
without calling unwanted attention to themselves. Sophisticated,
refined, and powerful, all at once. Further, each system is
personalized with the original owner's name on the serial badge.
The results of our 997S exhaust development program surpassed even
our expectations. Uncorking 3.8l of displacement through the use of
less restrictive mufflers, high flow German HJS 200 cell cat sections,
and tubular merge collector headers netted us a major power improvement
across almost the entire powerband. Depending on vehicle we have seen a
range of +28 to 39 crank horsepower and +28 to 31 crank torque
improvement.
On the 3.6l 997 we have recorded gains of 11-12 crank hp and 10-11 crank tq with use of our full system. The
stock 997 uses OEM tips that are too small to produce these gains, so
our AWE Tuning stainless steel logo tips are required to reach
advertised power as well as to ensure proper fitment.
Along with this incredible bump in power came a voice to die for. At
full throttle with your eyes closed, you'll swear that you're hearing
the sound of a GT class ALMS Porsche barreling down the start/finish
straight of Daytona International Raceway. Listen to the video clip.
Intoxicating and addictive.
Yet, equally important as an exciting full throttle exhaust note is
this system's ability to behave at idle and part throttle. No droning
whatsoever at any cruising speed with any of the AWE Tuning system
components, ensuring a long love affair with no caveats.
Our system is also modular, meaning that any one of the three
components can be installed along with the stock components. For
example, if a sweeter sound is your primary desire, you can install just
our mufflers. Or if you are looking for maximum performance, replace
your mufflers, cat sections, and headers with our versions. See the
dyno sheets for the gains found with each stage of tune. If a
particular combination is not shown, do not hesitate to contact us, as
we most likely have the dyno sheet in our archives.
Our angle cut and beveled edge logo tips are 100% 304 stainless steel
featuring double wall construction for resistance to heat
discoloration. They are available in a polished silver or diamond black
finish. Diamond black is deep and lustrous for a sophisticated stealth
look.
As with all AWE Tuning exhaust products, each TIG weld is hand
finished internally, only butt-welded junctions are used, and flange
openings are size matched to their ports, all to produce the smoothest
flow possible. It is this intensive attention to detail that sets AWE
Tuning exhaust products heads and shoulders above the rest.
Our exhaust systems are handbuilt works of art, are award winning, and are what your Porsche deserves.
Please note, this exhaust system is for racing use only.
