Thank you everyone for your support in 2020! We wish you the best in 2021. Thanks to you we are able to expand our facility resulting in more room for our fabrication team to grow and prosper. We look forward to adding more skilled people to our family as we decrease lead times and increase the quality and quantity of our offerings.

We've mentioned before that we are always interested in improving products whenever possible. Your continued support and enthusiasm in SOUL drives and helps us as we grow and try to be better.

First, we're expanding the footprint of our facility! We have moved some of our components and bends into an adjacent building which gives us double the shop floor space. We expect to bring in a dozen new employees in 2021 to increase our capabilities and speed. I'd like to personally thank every SOUL customer viewing this for allowing us to succeed!

On to our 991.2 Sport Catalytic Converter update! We engineered, tested, and we're finally rolling out new cast end cap sections for the PSE models. This cast end cap eliminates welds and allows for a smooth transition from catalyst to muffler. Not too long ago we also switched from having one heat shield bracket on each cat to two separate brackets allowing for more room and adjustability to put the turbo heat shield on.

How long has this been in development? Could you not share this information with prospective buyers so that they could make the choice to purchase the current product or wait for an updated version? Some of us have not received our cats only to find out an updated version will soon be available.

This has been in development for over a year with several delays during the process. We did not want to incorporate this change at all until we had a final, verified, approved version - hence the lack of discussion. Had we announced it earlier, it would have created confusion with several waves of inquiries about delays and likely upset customers, waiting for a change that makes no difference to our customers. I would not look at the old version is inferior, they are of equal value in quality, fitment, sound and performance. The biggest change this makes to our customers…they can get the product faster. This is one of the big changes we are making in product design to allow us to efficiently build in batch runs and make a notable dent in our fabrication lead times on our most popular and highest moving products, without sacrifice. We expect some confusion, though know it is all positive and part of our growth be better for you guys, and in this case…getting our products in your hands faster. We accept that as a company and we will handle any hesitation or confusion with this transition. I apologize for any confusion, we just want you guys to see the latest and greatest coming from your friendly neighborhood SOUL guys : )

I just got my first 911, a 2019 Carrera T. It is fantastic. But coming from a GT350R, I want bit more ‘drama’ when I go for a drive. The GT350R is the best sounding American car ever, full stop. I know I can’t get anywhere close with a turbocharged flat 6, but I would like more sound. Much more sound. Like maybe as much sound as can possibly be made by a 3.0T.

I hear that the Soul Sport Cats are a good place to start. Just how different would the sound be between Soul Sport Cats + PSE versus a full Soul exhaust?

Sounds interesting. Will the current orders receive the new updated model?

Make sure you get some equal length headers to get the best sound out of this motor. My Kline inconel headers transformed the sound of the car. I have those, BMC filter, IPD intake plenum, Soul sport cats and anti-drone exhaust. The combo sounds insane. Very exotic. It’s no voodoo but it’s no slouch either. Sounds wicked!

We've ramped up Sport Header production! Thank you everyone for your patience as we're catching up to the huge amount of pre-orders!
