mc5 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Looking to get a new tailpipe. Is there any advantage/disadvantage over getting the one in the link over the oem T design https://www.cargraphic.de/en/your-vehicle/for-porsche/for-cayman/for-9872/for-29l/exhaust-system-and-components/sport-tailpipes-for-porsche-9872-cayman-29l/perp87er35rx/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Can't comment on the X-Pipe specifically, but I had the OEM sport tailpipes fitted by Gert when he installed the Carnewal GT Exhaust, and the blurb states that the "TT" design results in a better flow and slightly more sound due to the enlarged diameter. http://www.carnewal.com/products/987/p87012/Tail-Pipe-Sport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSPY Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I was going to get the Cargraphic tail pipes on my R but was advised by the garage (a Cargraphic dealer) that the quality of the chrome was not that great, so I went for the black Techart ones instead and sold the originals via this site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaketame Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I'm looking at the Fabspeed black satin tips at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSPY Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Satin black works well, shows dirt and stains less 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So ended up with Cargraphic https://parr-uk.co.uk/product/perp87er35xtp/ - Was Tips + X-Pipe This is UK design but manufactured in Germany. I can highly recommend the quality and design. Precision Porsche fitted as its my local and were very impressed. Edited January 26, 2022 by jaketame 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porschaholic Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Very nice indeed. Hard to tell from the pics - is that a Matt finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is indeed car has had ceramic after a stage 1 too so giving off a lot of shiny gloss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spykee Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Those tips look great. What diameter are they? I've recently bought a DT/TG valved system but I'm on the fence about fitting the X pipe tips as I don't like the gap between them, its as if the diameter of each tip isn't big enough to fill the space enough. My OEM tips have a max of 5mm between them like yours, the new ones have about 10mm. OP, I had the original 987.1 S exhaust tips and replaced them with RS60 Spyder twins which are the TT design. It does change the tone slightly making it deeper and it does sound nicer. I'm tempted to fit the new exhaust system but still use the OEM RS60 tips if they'll fit.

They offer 100mm version and it’s known on a Cayman it can rub plastic / melt when really hot with 100mm version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
