Fabspeed Porsche 991 Carrera Sport Headers (2012-2016)
These Fabspeed Sport Headers replace restrictive OEM units on Porsche 991 Carrera models from 2012 to 2016 with mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel tubing and 200-cell HJS catalytic converters. They boost exhaust flow for a louder sports car exhaust note and add 15 wheel horsepower plus 27 foot-pounds of torque at 3000 RPM alongside peak gains of 5 whp and 9 ft-lbs. Dyno-tuned 3-into-1 collectors ensure every 991 Carrera pulls harder across the rev range.
Key Features
- Power Gains: Delivers 15 whp and 27 ft-lbs torque at 3000 RPM with peak increases of 5 whp and 9 ft-lbs for stronger acceleration
- HJS Catalytic Converters: German-imported 200-cell units flow 93-95% like straight pipes while preventing check engine lights for track-ready performance
- Construction: 14-16 gauge CNC mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel ensures durability and smooth flow without weak points
- Collectors: Investment-cast high-velocity 3-into-1 merge design extracts maximum power from the 3.4L flat-six engine
- Direct Bolt-On: Includes multi-layer gaskets for hassle-free replacement of OEM headers on all compatible 991 Carreras
Product Notes
- Verify 2012 model year chassis as early builds may be 997.2 generation before purchase
- Intended for closed track and off-road use with high-flow cats providing straight-pipe sound levels
- Backed by Fabspeed Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
