APR Tuning Products for the Porsche 997 - 911 Carrera S
The 997 keeps the basic profile of the 996, bringing the drag coefficient down to 0.28, but draws on the 993 for detailing. In addition, the new front fascia is reminiscent of the older generation, with the traditional "bug eye" headlamps. Its interior is also similarly revised, with strong links to the earlier 911 interiors while at the same time looking fresh and modern.
The 997 shares less than a third of its parts with the outgoing 996, but is still technically very similar to it. Initially, two versions of the 997 were introduced— the rear wheel drive (2wd) Carrera and Carrera S.
While the base 997 Carrera produced 325 PS (239 kW) from its 3.6 L Flat 6, a more powerful 3.8 L 355 PS (261 kW) Flat 6 powers the Carrera S. Besides a more powerful engine, the Carrera S also comes standard with 19 inch (48 cm) "Lobster Fork" style wheels, more powerful and larger brakes (with red calipers), a more sporty suspension, complete with PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) which allows for electronic adjustability of suspension settings, Xenon Headlamps, and Sport Steering wheel.
APR's sole mission is to engineer only the highest quality tuning solutions for Audi vehicles, ensuring the enthusiast the ultimate driving experience, while consistently providing the enthusiast the ultimate in customer care and support.
Because we are the best at what we do. There are several reasons to GO APR over other companies. First, we are the only VW aftermarket design firm in the US with engineers on staff. Second, we only tune VAG + Porsche vehicles. Third, we have completely reverse-engineered the entire Bosch Motronic system. We can safely say that we probably know the system better than anyone in the world (except Bosch, of course). Finally, we always strive to provide the best customer service and support possible.

APR is proud to present to our hand made performance exhaust systems for all Porsche® 997 Carrera and Carrera 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. Exclusive use of T-304 Stainless Steel Mandrel bent tubing, CNC’ed exhaust hangers and bracketry, Ceramic High Flow catalysts, the finest grade of hardware and exhaust clamps, Purge Resonance Technology and Tri Flo design ensures the epitome of performance, sound and style. 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 two different catback exhaust sections, one with exhaust tips and one that utilizes the stock exhaust tips. |
