2012 Cayman R exhaust on 2008 Cayman S?
Just wondering if a Cayman R exhaust will fit on my 2008 Cayman S? Anyone done this or have an idea if this will work? Thanks.

No, the primary pipe lengths are different.
You could make it work with some cut/fab work but not worth the time imho.

mooty, I don't know where you got your info., but the S and R exhaust are interchangeable on 987 Gen 2 9A1 engines ('09-'12)
I've done it on two cars, and dynoed both of them, and the magical Porsche 5mm larger primaries on the R added up to a whopping 0 HP.....
The S/R 9A1 Gen 2 manifolds and spacing are the same so you can swap the exhausts and they perform the same.
He can't use your S exhaust because the M97 engine ('06-'08) has different cylinder spacing, which moves the ports which moves the primaries.
