John,

I have a lift in my personal garage. Does the bumper have to come off to install, or is that not needed? Thinking about tackling the install myself if I end up purchasing.

The 992 is a cakewalk, I'd almost say it'll take you longer to put it on the lift than to do the job but that would be exaggerating haha. No bumper removal required, just one big vband clamp to the turbo, one O2 sensor, and a clamp to the muffler assembly. Easy swap

Best regards,

My pleasure Mike!

I can second Johns reply. I did mine on my lift and it is correct. You will spend as much time getting it on and off the lift as you will changing the cats. Be sure to get an O2 sensor wrench. It will make it much easier.

What size was the sensor? 22mm

The ease of install is not gonna be good news for my bank account.

I think Soul has a few sales during the year My wife loves when I say I got it on sale. That is her line. One time she bought shoes and told me she saved me $50.
I asked why she did not buy 2 pair and save me a $100.

PCJR

yes it's 22mm, also as a heads up, the vee band is a square head, not a hex. Knowing that should save you a bit of time 😉

Thanks.Should be able to borrow a 8 point socket for the V-band.

Thanks, John. Now I just need to find some loose change under the couch...

I had better luck looking under my driver's seat, might want to check there too

Nice sounds great thanks for posting I think. I have no loose change under the couch. Used it all for my Akrapovic Slip on for my not yet build 992 Carrera S. Maybe I'll come back after I find some and its thru the production line and shipped by Porsche. Will you guys still be here for a brotha? LOL

Soul Performance

We got you covered my man, whenever that may be haha

It's okay banks accounts don't have feelings, and you'll forget all about it

How long does it take to install these? I asked a shop about it and they said 4 hrs, that the bumper needs to come off. I hung up. The bumper does not need to come off! I'm just not seeing 4 hours worth of time to swap these?

This is the 2nd or third thread Ive found where someone said it took them or a dealer 45 mins to swap.

So I asked SOUL and they told me 4hrs too?

Which one is it? Because I doubt this is a 4hr job? MAYBE 2HRS? But 4???
