None of us are here to "massage our intellect". We're here to share our knowledge and passion for Boxster's.



There wasn't much point in responding to these rhetorical questions. Your question was answered - you'll need to find a way for the Pedro exhaust to provide vacuum to the Tip transmission.
Thank you for the response. That would explain something I read along the lines of at a certain point a valve opens/closes, associated with the throttle.

With all due respect, I employed the 'massage the intellect' as my choice of words because it appeared that no one was responding to the original actual inquiry. It appeared that no one had an answer to my inquiry(s). In the future I'll tone down the vernacular to mitigate misconceptions, and to provide balance.

My other questions weren't rhetorical. I'm quite curious, now having been bitten by the Porsche bug. I've an eye on future Porsches, and for something that might seem innocuous, that vacuum line for example, I'm interested in learning about the progression. The improvement. That would be a general discussion and, last I checked, this is the forum for it. The BMWs I mastered the same way, and it was learning from people with many, many posts and lots of bruised-knuckle experience. People like you, likely. So, thank you.
