OE, OEM and Genuine Parts Explained
×OE Or OEM
OE, shorthand for Original Equipment, parts are the same as what was originally installed on your car and what you'd buy at the dealership parts counter, but with the dealer logos removed by the manufacturer (they will be stamped with the OE's name and logo instead).
OEM, Original Equipment Manufacturer, parts are produced by a manufacturer that supplies OE parts to vehicle manufacturers. Because they are produced side-by-side with OE parts, OEM parts are held to strict quality standards and quality control.
Genuine Or Aftermarket
Genuine parts are sourced directly from the vehicle manufacturer and at a higher cost compared to OE and OEM parts. These are the same parts found on your vehicle, and what you'd buy at your dealership's parts counter.
Aftermarket parts are non-factory parts and accessories that are used to repair or maintain a vehicle. These parts may be produced by a manufacturer that supplies OE parts to a vehicle manufacturer, but not always. Aftermarket parts are not original to the car and are often built with affordability in mind. They may also be the only available option for discontinued Genuine parts.
Porsche 981 Cayman / Boxster – Valved Sport Exhaust System
Titanium Construction • Valved Control • Signature F1 Tone
Overview
The 981 Cayman and Boxster platform is a dream—perfectly balanced, razor-sharp in handling, and endlessly rewarding. But from the factory, the sound falls short of the experience. That’s where Valvetronic Designs steps in.
Our cat-back exhaust system transforms the 981’s exhaust note into a motorsport-inspired symphony. Measuring 2.5 inches from the headers back, this setup drastically elevates tone, character, and raw emotion. With the valves open, exhaust gases flow straight through to our large X-pipe and exit via 3.5-inch tips, delivering the raw, high-pitched sound the 981 chassis deserves. Close the valves, and the system calms down, offering a refined and neighbor-friendly tone.
With precision engineering, lightweight titanium construction, and our proven valve control technology, this system unlocks the true voice of the 981.
