Carbon fibre exhaust tips
#16
Hello all, wanted to chime in as I am personally running our Carbon Fiber tips on my Cayman R. Here is a picture of these tips we offer for your reference.
Since installation of those tips earlier this year I have put over 3000 miles on car, almost entirely to and from the racetrack. They have held up great as expected, and the reason being is the design. The main tip construction is stainless steel, and the high quality carbon fiber is mounted around this but does not touch. This creates an air buffer that prevents the carbon fiber from overheating, and while driving the faster you go the more air flows through this buffer zone to scrub away heat. The carbon fiber we use does not have a gloss overlay that is typically more sensitive to heat, it is a high quality matte finish that cleans up nicely. You'll enjoy just as much as I do

A cannot say for another company, but our X-Pipe design does promote much better exhaust flow over the head on collision of the factory tip assembly. There is a difference with a smoother exhaust note and a couple horsepower, but don't expect a complete transformation like you'd find with an exhaust system as it is subtle.
