And perhaps someone as new to the forum as yourself shouldn't be quite so rude and disrespectful to one of the most knowledgeable and helpful people on this forum, especially considering that in all of your 157 posts to date you have contributed absolutely nothing of value.

Yeah arrogant crap don't fly with me, just the way it is, deal with it. 1 post or 1 million posts doesn't allow for anyone to pull that "nose in the air" stuff. Rudeness will get matched with rudeness in return.

Hey! Let's stop all this. JFP knows a lot about engines besides how they sound and I'm sure he's not implying that anyone's an idiot. We all have our preferences as far as our cars go.

I wish I had someone with his demonstrated level of knowledge to help with my car habit, especially now that I've taken the plunge on a custom turbo beast.

To the OP:

I've desnorked both of the Boxsters I've owned, a 2000 and a 2008, and both came out with very little effort and produced a beautiful throttle melody. Maybe yours is stuck, or there is some fastener holding it in. If you can get it loose, see how you like it. No one has seen any real change in engine performance either way. You can always put it back in.

Enough said, and I think I speak for everyone on this! Let's drop this guys.

We all love Porsches

I'm with slate...he had it coming. Why would someone even bother responding just to instigate and denigrate someone over something as trivial as desnorkeling their car. Maybe he just had a bad day or something.

Slate o1 wasn't singling out JFP, posting rude comments is his only "contribution" to the forum. I think he is past due for a warning from a moderator.

Give it a rest, "I think he is past due for a warning from a moderator". Really, are you going to call your mommy next, come on grow up!
