SOUL Performance Competition Headers for 987.2 Porsche Boxster / Cayman

SOUL Performance’s Competition Headers for 987.2 Porsche Boxster and Cayman replace the heavy, restrictive factory manifolds with a free-flowing, track-focused header solution that delivers stronger response, reduced operating temperatures, and a more aggressive flat-six tone. Developed specifically for the 987.2 platform, the design features properly sized 2in runners and optimized collectors to extract maximum performance from the 3.4L engine while still producing strong gains on the 2.9L. Constructed from T304L stainless steel with port-matched flanges and smooth-radius primary tubing, each set is rigorously quality-checked, fixture-tested for precise fitment, and foam packed for safe delivery, with new high-grade hardware included for the header-to-exhaust flanges and detailed installation instructions in the box.

Development and Testing

  • SOUL Performance developed a dedicated application for the 987.2 platform, carefully sizing the 2in runners and collectors to extract maximum power from the 3.4L engine while still delivering strong gains on the 2.9L. Dynojet testing on SOUL’s project Cayman S (PDK), when paired with the SOUL Valved Exhaust System, showed peak gains of 9whp and 10ft-lbs of torque at 4,100rpm.

Construction

  • SOUL Performance’s precision-engineered headers are meticulously fabricated from T304L stainless steel and designed to maximize power gains through proven flow-focused details. Port-matched flanges, smooth-radius primary tubing, and flow-optimized collectors work together to improve exhaust efficiency. Every set is rigorously quality-checked prior to shipping.

Bolt-On and Go

  • Each SOUL Performance product is test-fit in a dedicated fixture to verify precise fitment, then foam packed to help ensure it arrives in perfect condition. Detailed installation instructions are included for a straightforward install that most DIY enthusiasts can complete. New high-grade hardware is provided for the header-to-exhaust flanges.
