A bit pricey but they seem to come up used quite often.
Good luck ordering them these days. Was on their wait list for about 1.5 years before I just bought a lift instead. Terrible way to run a business for a good product.

Center jack point? I was not aware of one.

It’s the “jack point of last resort”. We had a tech day at Porsche on the 718 and they showed us the normal jack points and then showed us the area under the rear most transmission mounts where you would jack up the car in a pinch (meaning temporarily to get jack stands in). Look up the center jack point for the 981 GT4 (there are pics online) and it’s generally in the same place. I wouldn’t jack up the car there and leave it on a jack there for more than a minute or two to get jack stands in. Any longer and I’d be worried about too much stress on that point.

Living vicariously via this sound clip while the Spyder sleeps through the winter…

I still can’t believe how much this exhaust completely transforms this car. It’s a totally different driving experience vs stock. A bit more pep in its step, and a truer GT sound. And no downsides!

So you've got to get the underside covers off to gain access to this jack point?

Sounds amazing! Is this a whole Inconel setup or with stock header?

Inconel OAP and backbox. Stock headers. I absolutely wouldn’t change a thing. The best part of this setup is how nicely the tone varies throughout the entire rev range.

The valve controller is a big difference maker too because you get to enjoy more of the sound in the lower RPMs, whereas it’d be muted unless you’re flooring it. Now you get to experience it all the time without being a hoon.

Anyone have a comparison video of the Kline with OEM headers and without OEM headers? Trying to decide what to go with. I had catless headers on my 981 GT4 with the OEM box and it was the right level of crazy loud when on it and normal when not, and while I adore the Kline wouldn’t mind some more mid to high end loudness.

There are only a handful out there that have the full system. I'm on said list, though technically I didnt receive the headers yet. From what I gathered, the headers do exactly what you're looking for.
I will capture a comparison video as best as my phone can grab once I get the headers in hand - 6-8 weeks if you can be patient.

Works for me! Thanks BoxKing!

The 200 Cell Inconel Headers get you more low and mid volume but not much more at the high revs...
