The Porsche 911 Carrera and Carrera S of the 991.2 generation marked a turning point in the brand’s legacy. With the introduction of the 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six, Porsche combined the traditional driving feel of the 911 with modern turbocharged efficiency, producing an engine that was responsive, balanced, and deeply versatile. While the 991.2 Carrera offers incredible performance from the factory, enthusiasts know that the heart of the Porsche experience lies in the sound and character of the flat-six. The stock system, though refined, leaves untapped potential in both tone and performance. This is where our VANTA Edition exhaust system comes in.
Developed over countless hours of design, prototyping, and road testing, this system was engineered specifically for the 991.2 Carrera and Carrera S models. Starting with CAD-scanned data of the OEM components, every curve and junction has been optimized using CNC technology for a perfect bolt-on fit. At the core of the design is a center X-pipe layout, chosen for its ability to merge exhaust pulses harmoniously and create an exotic, high-frequency tone reminiscent of Porsche’s GT2 lineage. The X-pipe also ensures there is no intrusive cabin drone, allowing for long-distance comfort without sacrificing aggressive character under load. Twin side mufflers balance the system, housing OEM-style vacuum valves that operate seamlessly with Porsche Sport Exhaust (PSE) controls. For cars not equipped with PSE, the valves can also be paired with our optional remote kit, giving every driver complete command over sound and presence at the push of a button.
Materials and craftsmanship are what set this system apart. Customers may choose between AISI 304 stainless steel or aerospace-grade Ti-6Al-4V titanium, both constructed using precision TIG welding techniques. The titanium option cuts weight by over 60% compared to OEM, improving balance and handling while enhancing durability and heat dissipation. Each system comes finished with our deluxe quad exhaust tips, available in multiple finishes including chrome, burnt, satin black, or carbon fiber, allowing every owner to tailor the final look to their car’s personality. The traditional Porsche quad-tip layout preserves the classic Carrera aesthetic, while the modern engineering underneath transforms both tone and performance.
Performance gains are significant and immediately noticeable. The integrated catless downpipes are equipped with O₂ sensor ports for plug-and-play compatibility, ensuring optimal flow and exhaust velocity. Dyno testing has revealed increases of up to 30 horsepower and 25 lb-ft of torque, alongside sharper throttle response and quicker turbo spool. The result is a car that feels more alive across the rev range, breathing freely with a motorsport-inspired edge. Unlike many aftermarket systems, this exhaust is a complete bolt-on solution, requiring no cutting or welding, which makes installation straightforward while retaining full serviceability.
For Porsche 991.2 Carrera owners who demand more than stock refinement, this system redefines what the twin-turbo flat-six can deliver. It gives the Carrera the voice it deserves — clean, exotic, and unmistakably Porsche — while unlocking real performance gains on the road and track. Whether built in stainless steel for durability or titanium for ultimate weight reduction and purity, this is an exhaust system that connects the driver back to Porsche’s racing heritage and elevates every drive into something unforgettable.
