The cables are called "tension ropes" by Porsche, and there is an adjustment possible. You can turn the 14mm bolt that sits vertically, and just inboard of the lowest part of each tension rope CCW, and that will in effect "lower" the steel ball that it attaches to, and thus increase the downward pull on the rear main bow.
