Thank you again Panameras for posting your dyno results. Your curves do look promising and are consistent with others findings. This just adds another piece to the 986 knowledge base and raises even more questions about realistic performance gains on these cars.

The next step is for someone to test how much real world gain these headers produce by running some 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, and lap times on a track they already have wired to get a good baseline. Then repeat the process after installing the headers. That is the kind of testing most racing teams are doing. A 1/2 sec. per lap over a day long race often is the difference between 1st and 20th place.
