The orignial factory sport exhaust may not work on a 2003+ as the bypass pipes are in the way of the extensions to the rear bumper cover.

This is the original sport exhaust. Pic from Rich.

The pipes are now tucked in. To clear the bumper extensions.

Another view. Looks like you can put on the bolt on 2.7 or 3.2 tip.

For sale on German ebay.

Update. I contacted the seller in Germany and the exhaust is only for sale there, but he hopes to export to the US. He is in a small village South of Stuttgart and says it sounds better than the 996 sport exhaust. I then asked on the German Boxster board and they know the seller and the exhaust. It is a pre-2003 sport exhaust that has been modified for better sound and so that it works on a 2003/04. It is not Porsche part number 000 044 200 20.

I also asked about this exhaust on a German Boxster message board. http://www.staunet.de/phpBB2/viewtopic.php...&highlight=

I know it is Andreas. You found our message board.

What can you tell us about the modified factory sport exhaust? Why did you move the bypass pipes so that they are up against the muffler? Jeff

Hello Jeff,

in the german ebay you can see some more pictures from the new "sport exhaust".

In April I will travel to the United States. A good friend lived there. He drives also a Porsche Boxster S . He wants absolute have the new exhaust since he heared it 4 weeks ago.

With this sound can you shock a Carrera GT driver

Best wishes

Andi

PS: I hope Jeff we can make a meeting, then I can show you the installation on your car. :-))

Does an upgrade to the Sport Exhaust add any additional HP to Boxster 97? If so how much approximately. The service guy at the dealer is telling me would add an additional 15%, which i don't belive. Is $2450.00 installed a good price?

Thank you.

Porsche has never made a hp increase claim for the Boxster or 996 sport exhaust - so ask the service guy the source of his claim. You do this for a better sound and nothing else.
