I get it. My rallycross boxster uses a 2.7. I used modified exhaust manifolds from a 997 and a 3.2 ROW tune. Losing 1000lbs was the biggest advantage. I was able to smoke a tire for over 100 feet with that combo.

I've since switched to a lightweight flywheel and electric water pump after that video.
That was a large improvement too. Getting the rpm's up out of a corner is instant now. I'll probably switch to a 996 intake if I ever yank the motor
