Jake, I'm also curious, when you do a engine dyno, do you have the air intake and exhaust system installed on the engine that's going to be on the car the engine is going into, when you dyno the engine?

Yes I have a ton of tiptronic data, my chassis dyno has over 8,000 dyno runs saved, every car that comes and goes from here gets an evaluation.
With the engine dyno we can outfit with any intake or exhaust, BUT due to the work that goes into firing an M96 on the engine dyno, we only use it for developmental work.
Customer's engines are never tested on this dyno, and sometimes an engine stays bolted up for 3-4 months at a time as we optimize the combination that we are shooting for.

The boxster was restricted coming out of the factory. It has a horrible designed header/exhaust combo. Fabspeed claims Porsche didn't want to showup the 996 guys. Here is actual dyno video of boxster mods.

Disagree.
I have used the stock exhaust system from a Boxster to make over 300RWHP in the past. The Boxster engine was ripped with intake ports, not seeing variorum plus till 2007, and through the intake system as well as camshaft profiles.
We can increase Boxster performance way more than 996 performance at the same displacement points. 90% of everything I build gets stock exhaust, and keep in mind that NONE of them are stock displacement.
