With above said, I do not recall that my 1997 has one, maybe only for Tiptronic cars? Mine has the helmholtz chamber right by the throttle body, basically for the same purpose.
If you do not understand it, just trust what Porsche did and leave it alone.

The reading I did pointed to it being exclusive on the Tip... which is what I have. I'll buy the flow noise, etc. explanation as that seems to be the purpose of the intake tube muffler as well.
Yeah... I'll trust what Porsche did and leave it alone.
I believe the intake muffler and that tube were added to comply with European noise mandates. Period.
I find it odd that it is resident only upon the tips...
Next?
