Curious, do you notice a sound difference between 987 aluminum engine cover vs 986 plastic/metal engine cover? I believe the 986 would be negligibly quieter.

I didn't notice any difference when it was on the 987. I can't judge it on my box because I've removed all the insulation from the carpets and engine compartment area.

This is the only thing I think left to share about this mod. I tuck the cable under the carpet hold down clips.

And have the pull part right behind my left shoulder.
