APR Tuning Products for the Porsche 987 - Boxster S
The Boxster is Porsche's first vehicle designed by Raymond Barth from the beginning as a roadster; all previous Porsche convertibles were based on hardtop coupes.
The first-generation Boxster (the 986) was introduced in late 1996 as a 1997 model; it was powered by a 2.5 litre flat six-cylinder engine. In 2000, the new Boxster S variant was introduced with a larger 3.2 litre motor, and the base model received a more powerful 2.7 litre engine. In 2003, styling and engine output was upgraded on both variants.
In 2005, further updates were substantial enough that Porsche internally identified the Boxster as a new 987 model. The 987s were more powerful than the 986s; engine output increased yet further in 2007, when both Boxster models received the motors from the corresponding Porsche Cayman variants.
Production of the 986 began at the former Porsche 928 facility in Stuttgart, Germany in 1996. Valmet Automotive Oy also manufactures Boxsters under contract to Porsche at a facility in Uusikaupunki, Finland. The Boxster was Porsche's biggest volume seller from its introduction in model year 1997 until the company introduced the Cayenne utility vehicle in model year 2003.
The Boxster's name is a combination of the word "boxer", referring to the vehicle's horizontally-opposed or "boxer" engine, and the word "roadster", referring to the vehicle's convertible top.

APR is proud to present to our hand made performance exhaust systems for the Porsche® 987 Boxster S. Building on 10 years of experience designing and manufacturing the highest quality exhaust systems for the VAG market, APR has set the bar for all other Porsche exhausts to be compared.

APR prides ourselves on enhancing your driving experience with no compromise and our exhausts are a true definition of this philosophy. Deep unobtrusive tone at low rpm’s and while cruising with a distinct and noticeable growl at high rpm’s or deep into the throttle conjures a glorious symphony of spent exhaust gasses in your wake. Dyno proven performance increases across the powerband show that no loss of low end torque occurs and the entire area under the curve is raised to bring a smooth linear increase to red line. OEM tip fitment on most applications allows our clientele to select from a range of APR exhaust tip options or retain their OEM tips for stealth installation and even install other aftermarket exhaust tips to their liking. Coupled with APR’s DME/ECU Recalibration the performance gains and drivability of your Porsche will truly coexist in a perfect harmony of esthetics and technology. APR’s strategy of engineering a full range of engine performance products for Porsche enthusiasts allows our engineering team to work “both ends” of the technologies related to engine hardware AND software, an opportunity rarely found. APR offers both an exhaust manifold replacement (headers) and a catback exhaust section. The headers are designed to efficently move air from the combustion chamber to the factory turbochargers. |
