Porsche Modifications: SharkWerks’ Comprehensive Upgrade Solutions
The moment you flip the ignition on a Porsche, you’re not just starting a car; you’re awakening a legacy. At HOUSE Automotive, we’ve partnered with SharkWerks, the industry leader in Porsche performance engineering, to ensure that legacy isn’t just preserved but elevated. Whether you’re carving canyon roads or dominating track days, SharkWerks’ meticulously crafted upgrades transform your Porsche into a symphony of precision, power, and reliability. Let’s dive into how these innovations redefine what’s possible behind the wheel.
Porsche Exhaust Systems: Where Engineering Meets Emotion
GT3 & GT3 RS
The metallic rasp of a SharkWerks-tuned Porsche exhaust isn’t just noise, it’s a declaration of intent. For GT3 and GT3 RS models, the choice between Sport and Track exhaust systems boils down to how you want your adrenaline served. The Sport option delivers a deep, resonant bark that turns heads without rattling windows, while the Track system unleashes a visceral, unfiltered snarl perfect for tearing up circuits.
Turbo & GT2
Turbo and GT2 owners aren’t left out. SharkWerks’ turbo-back systems ditch restrictive factory piping for mandrel-bent tubing that lets exhaust gases flow freely, reducing backpressure and unlocking hidden horsepower. The result? A sharper throttle response and a turbo spool that sounds like a jet engine inhaling.
Carrera & Cayman
Even “entry-level” 911 Carrera S/T/GTS models get their moment. The muffler bypass kit replaces bulky factory mufflers with straight-through resonators, adding 10-15 horsepower and a soundtrack that oscillates between purr and howl depending on your right foot. And for Cayman and Boxster drivers? SharkWerks’ mid-pipe deletes the factory secondary cats, amplifying the flat-six’s natural mid-range harmonics until it sings like a 911 GT3’s younger sibling.
911 964
But performance isn’t reserved for modern models. Classic 964 owners can ditch their anemic stock exhausts for systems that mirror RSR-inspired geometry, pairing raspy high-RPM screams with torque gains you’ll feel in your spine.
Porsche High-Flow BMC Air Filters: Let Your Engine Breathe
Imagine sprinting while breathing through a straw.That’s essentially what your Porsche’s engine endures with factory paper air filters. SharkWerks’ high-flow BMC filters swap restrictive paper elements for cotton gauze media, increasing airflow by 30% without sacrificing filtration. Installation? A 10-minute affair. The difference? Throttle inputs feel telegraphic, as if the engine reads your mind half a second sooner.
These filters aren’t just standalone upgrades; they’re the foundation of SharkWerks’ power kits. By optimizing airflow before tweaking fuel maps or ignition timing, engineers ensure upgrades work in harmony.
Porsche Power Kits: Precision Tuning for Every Porsche
SharkWerks doesn’t believe in one-size-fits-all tuning. For GT3, RS and R (991, 997 and 996) models, they offer 3.9L and 4.1L upgrade kits, optimized to reengineer the Mezger engine’s DNA. With a simple exhaust system, drop-in BMC air filters and a remapped ECU, your GT car pushes high power while still maintaining Porsche’s OEM engine protection features for ultimate safety.
The 991.2, 991 and 997.2 Turbo and GT3 models also benefit from SW’s Power Kits. These kits offer more edge, improved sound and overall performance by safely increasing boost pressure and sharper throttle response. These kits add 75-85 HP without stressing the turbos.
Even Carrera S/T/GTS models get love. SharkWerks’ ECU optimizations eliminate the factory’s conservative throttle damping, making acceleration feel responsive and fast. Combine this with their exhaust, and a base 911 transforms into a GTS for less than the cost of a factory aerokit.
Porsche Coolant System Upgrades: Reliability You Can Trust
The 996/997 Turbo and GT cars have coolant systems that are prone to failure due to the degradation of the factory rubber hoses over time. SharkWerks offers a solution to this problem by replacing the OEM hoses with silicone lines and stainless steel coolant pipes that are more resistant to heat and will last longer. This may not be the most exciting upgrade, but it is certainly more appealing than a tow truck ride home from the track.

The SharkWerks Difference: No Compromises
Every SharkWerks component is hand-built in California by technicians who eat, sleep, and breathe Porsches. Before any part reaches your car, it endures months of real-world testing. This obsession with quality means:
- Zero check-engine lights post-install
- CARB/Smog compliance for hassle-free California registrations
- Factory warranty preservation, meaning dealers can’t void coverage for using SharkWerks’ parts
Most importantly, these upgrades respect Porsche’s ethos. Steering weight remains telepathic, PDK shifts stay crisp, and the chassis balance stays neutral, just with more power and noise to play with.
