Ed A says:

Drive buys.

UsRanger says:

Looks like it hangs a little low no?.. Sounds awesome, though. Nice job, very descriptive.

Stefan Berglund says:

Any ideas why the functionality is reversed to the pictures on the buttons? A should open the valves.

Francois Ducharme says:

Can wait for driving clips / sounds. What is the price range?

Voiceofreason99ify says:

I have experimented in past of homemade versions and found the torque at low revs dropped substantially – especially on low capacity engines (2.5/2.7). The PSE is the best option because of this as it still routes some of the bypass into the exhaust to keep up the torque. Also tends to drone if bypass does not go through any tuned tubes. But worth a ping if you don’t mind! also bear in mind the heat build up under the bumper.

Jacob L. says:

Super impressed with the craftsmanship of the unit, there’s one similar across the pond, doesn’t seem as nice as this though. Not super impressed by the installation of the peripherals though, seems a bit of an afterthought, there has to be a better way!

Another detailed video. After watching this, I would just remove that bracket where you are attaching the vacuum solenoid and either mount it to where the bracket was removed (2 bolts at the bottom of the bracket that hold it to the engine case), or – if there is room – to the bolt that supports the air intake "muffler box" just to the rear of the bracket. I've removed my muffler box, and plugged it, so on my car, the bracket really doesn't serve a purpose any more unless you are supporting the engine from the top. Call it weight savings 😀

Mary says:

Enjoy watching all your video, great job Aaron, learn a lot from you, I replaced my struts on my 97 boxster, black color/have 47,000+ miles on it, very good condition for a old car, I drive my new Ford mustang (Garber blue) and put about 100,000 miles on it the last three years. Thank you again for more video, Mary

Sean Denny says:

Ballpark what are those run cost wise?

LCW-Media says:

brother you are doing a great job. Do soul makes this same set up for the boxster 987.2?

David Verrwhatever says:

Great video! Can’t wait for the driving impressions.

tom pekarna says:

new clamps would seem to be easier and surer to work with. Suppose OEM clamps are $75 ea

gary g says:

a common problem with aftermarket boxster exhausts is that they drone at 3k to 5k rpm. and the once that dont are really expencive. does this have a drone? and can you hear it inside the car while driving?
