Also could be that w/ all the extra HP from the 3.2, Porsche decided not to snork ya in the first place. That being said, if you got the collar, tabs and grill off, the snork is just inside there and easy to remove. If it ain't there, then you're already done  .
Here's a link to a good DIY w/ pictures:
De-Snork Instructions

Thanks Burg Boxster,
I appreciate the info and the welcome. I looked at your site and the pictures are different from mine. My intake has a rubber boot that smoothly inserts into the intake and flush to the grill opening. There appears to be a black funnel behind the mesh but appears to be very short without the lip or restriction? I might just take your advice and tease out the mesh and have a pull at the plastic piece.
Thanks again
