Thstone, did Porsche really do something to the motor or exhaust to create the burble / pop? Or just enhance it as others in the automotive industry have done?

Faking It: Engine-Sound Enhancement Explained - Tech Dept. - Car and Driver

The flat 6 has an inherent strange "flatulent" sound as it comes off revs with many exhausts, I've heard it explained before but forget the specifics. My Box S had a B & B exhaust on it that had a beautiful burble to it that kept me from pulling it due to drone.
