The Soul Performance Sport Side Mufflers for the Porsche 997.2 Carrera (2009–2011) offer a refined yet more aggressive exhaust upgrade tailored specifically to the muted nature of the factory system. Designed with a hybrid “talk tube” configuration, these sport side mufflers bridge piping before and after the muffler bodies to allow a controlled bypass at higher throttle openings—producing a throatier tone under acceleration without overwhelming cabin drone at cruising speeds. Crafted from mandrel‑bent T304L stainless steel and precision‑welded in‑house, they deliver enhanced exhaust character and personality while retaining a welcoming, premium driving experience. With a weight reduction of approximately 3.6 lbs (1.5 kg) compared to stock side mufflers, this upgrade also contributes to a lighter rear end and sharper response.
