DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING: We set out to increase power and sound without throwing a check engine light. Using high-flow catalysts allows us to do just that. We designed our Sport Catalytic Converters to have the best possible exhaust path with valves open in pursuit of maximum exhaust flow – no compromises.
POWER: We approached AWE Tuning about testing our development car at their facility for third party dyno results. We experienced gains of 12 whp and 13 ft-lbs of torque at 4,700 RPM as tested on a 2017 Carrera 4S with no other mods. Peak power was up by 14 whp and 15 ft-lbs. Much greater gains can be expected from the freer flowing exhaust components when paired with a tune.
CONSTRUCTION: Each set is assembled in house out of mandrel bent, thick wall .065″” T304L stainless steel. Back purged TIG welding ensures proper weld penetration and longevity. Each set is tested in a fixture to guarantee fitment and then foam packed to ensure they arrive in perfect condition.
BOLT ON AND GO: Each product is rigorously quality-checked and tested in a fixture to ensure perfect fitment. Thorough installation instructions are included in the box for a straightforward install that can be performed by most DIY enthusiasts.
LIFETIME WARRANTY: Enjoy your SOUL exhaust components with confidence on both the street and track as they are covered for life! Our team will quickly work with you to resolve any issues or answer any questions that you may have.

I got the Soul performance sport cats put in my 991.2 c4s. The sound that comes out of it is amazing and i couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Highly recommend these for a nice deep sound while still keeping true to the Porsche name and sound the car makes stock.

The sport cats are cool to me specifically because they make the turbo sounds even louder. No added drone, just slightly louder with more cool turbo whooshes. Totally agree headers+sport cats+PSE seems to be the sweet spot for sound, HP gains, and cost. Really gives the car a great turbo car sound mixed with flat 6. Still nowhere near the sound an N/A motor makes, but cool and fun sound that is just it's own thing. Sounds way better to me than 996/997 TT engines.

I have these on my 991.2 Targa GTS and they really sound good. No stinky exhaust and no check engine light. You can really hear the turbos whistle with these.

The local Indy installed my sport cats. Dropped it off in the morning and picked it up late afternoon. Absolutely love the increased aggressive sound. To be honest I am not really a fan of the pops but it is amusing to hear when showing off the exhaust to friends. They are definitely loud.
The turbo spooling sound is great. Very happy with the mod.
I might do a tune sometime. But the local Indy who knows his stuff wasn’t too keen on tuning. His take is that Porsche knows what they are doing and doesn’t like to mess with too much. He did love the sound of the soul highflow cats though.

I just installed a set of Soul Sport Cats this past weekend and I came away very impressed. ( Carrera T with PSE )
Just as the other reviews and videos show, there is a definite increase in turbo whistle, especially at idle and an overall more aggressive sound throughout the rev range.
And the cold start up is awesome, it will definitely get your attention.
The install was straight forward but I'll add a few notes of " I wish I had that tool instead"
When using the T30 to get the heat shields off I wish I had a T30 using a 1/4 inch drive rather than my 3/8 in drive. The 3/8 ratchet was just too long, and when reducing the T30 to my 1/4 ratchet, it became too tall.
So, T30 with 1/4 drive is a game changer.
I wish I had a stubby 22mm wrench for the cat O2 sensors (I bought a stubby now after the fact just to have). The cats O2s are accessible, but if your 22mm is just a bit too long like mine was, it'll make for a longer day.
In addition to removing the rear wheels to access that T30 heat shield screw, I also removed the rear wheel well liner. It's just a small section, and is held in place by just a few screws, T25 I think. This will allow for a straight on shot at that T30.
In order to stabilize the exhaust when pulling it away from the turbos, I used a 5 gallon bucket sitting underneath the muffler using my QuckJack on the 1st level. The bucket was at the right height for my wife and to wrestle the exhaust away without damaging the bolts or turbos.
The guys at Soul really did their homework with this product. The fit and finish is top notch and the sound is fantastic.
