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
