Porsche Classic Exhausts Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best exhaust for a classic Porsche 911?
The “best” exhaust for a classic Porsche 911 depends on your specific model year and what you want to achieve.
If staying factory-correct matters, a system matching the original specifications is likely ideal. However, a stainless steel system is often preferred for improved durability and a richer sound. If you are chasing maximum power gains though, a full performance exhaust system is recommended. Here at Paramount Performance, we use 308 stainless steel as it is known for its strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and durability under heat and pressure.
Will a new exhaust increase my car’s value?
Investing in a high-quality stainless steel exhaust system is generally considered a valuable upgrade, one that does more than just replace an ageing part. It contributes to the longevity and character appeal of a classic Porsche, which is exactly the sort of detail that tends to catch the eye of discerning buyers.
In terms of selling your car in the future, a new exhaust shows that you have maintained the car and it is often considered to be a thoughtful improvement. This classic exhaust upgrade also has the potential to increase the car’s value because it signals that you care about the vehicle’s long-term health rather than just keeping it on the road.
Can you tune my classic Porsche to work with a new exhaust?
Yes, you can tune a classic Porsche to work with a new exhaust. To make the most of a new performance exhaust system, we recommend an ECU remapping to adjust the engine’s fuel to match the improved airflow from the new exhaust. This will ensure that you get the full performance potential of the upgrade.
What is the process of making my classic Porsche exhaust system?
At Paramount Performance every bespoke exhaust is designed and hand-built in-house using premium-grade 308 stainless steel. We use this grade specifically for its superior strength and heat resistance.
We start with a full inspection and measurement of the vehicle. This is vital when commissioning a classic Porsche exhaust system as older factory specs may no longer apply. From there our technicians shape each section by hand using mandrel bending and TIG welding to ensure perfect fitment.
The result is a custom classic Porsche exhaust that improves performance and delivers a richer tone. We ensure the exhaust for your classic Porsche stays true to the car’s original character while offering the reliability of modern materials.
Why Choose Paramount Performance
Choosing the right partner for your classic car is rarely a straightforward decision. Paramount Performance has a history in performance car tuning and crafting exhaust systems that dates back to the 1980s. It suggests we have spent decades refining how we work rather than just following the latest trends.
We find that older vehicles, particularly classic Porsches, often have their own specific quirks and needs.
