After the headers (A), the exhaust enters a single center muffler (B) then flows into two large side mufflers (C), and exits through the tailpipes at either side of the rear bumper. The exhaust is the same on all 997 Carrera, S, 4, 4S, and GTS models with the only option being the PSE mentioned in this article.
Some owners insist on switching these to the standard 5-lug wheel layout and this can be done through Porsche, although it's very expensive. GTS models were also sometimes optioned with the Centerlock wheels (as opposed to 5-lug), which limits the brake and wheel upgrades available for the car. It gives a slightly lower ride height and active shocks, which can be switched from soft to hard modes (for smooth roads and race-like hardness) with the click of a button in front of the shifter.
Beyond that some cars that have the optional Sport suspension (called Sport PASM). It is rather rare on the non-Turbo and non-GT3 cars.Ĭarrera S' come standard with PASM while it's an option on the Carrera. The cars can be fitted with PCCB brakes as a factory option (at the price of about $8000), and this is a highly-desired option for non-track use. This is also compatible with aftermarket exhaust sections mentioned below. There is also a highly desirable factory exhaust option (PSE or Porsche Sport Exhaust), mostly only found on 2010 and newer cars (PSE was delayed on most of the 2009 year cars), which allows you to switch the side mufflers from a quiet to louder mode at the click of an exhaust button. With our tuning options, we can further modify all of these modes (see below for ECU tuning), but with the PDK transmission, Sport Chrono is a must-have option if you really want to squeeze the most from the car, and it can be retrofitted to cars without it, although only at Porsche dealerships. Sport mode also allows higher ignition maps with more timing, for slightly more horsepower and sharper throttle response. Without Sport mode, the PDK is a bit lazy, especially compared to Sport Plus with its lightning-fast shifts.

This allows the "Sport" mode on manual cars and "Sport Plus" when using the PDK transmission. The most important option available for these cars is the Sport Chrono Package. If you want more horsepower, sharper handling, a more exciting exhaust note, or just a bit more fun, read on to see what we recommend for these cars. Surely it's enough car for most people, but Porsche did leave a bit on the table and our goal with buying this car was to find out where those tweaks could be made. It's nearly as fast as the Turbo models from a few years back with better handling. Out of the box, this is a great and balanced car with no shortcomings or reliability concerns. We are often asked "What would you do if this was your car?" While there isn't really a correct answer for every person and situation, and this isn't meant to be an "Official FAQ", it is our guide to playing/experimenting with your 997.2 based upon our experiences having owned, driven and worked with these cars over the years. And while this car was a massive improvement over the previous generation, in stock form the car tends to be a bit too soft, quiet and well, boring for some people. Over the next two years, we tinkered and tuned every inch of the car to further optimize what Porsche had done from the factory. In order to familiarize ourselves with this new car, we acquired the first day it became available in the United States, and dubbed this project "ZTADPOLE". No longer hampered by intermediate shaft failures or oil-starvation issues when pushed hard, this new 911 is much better equipped for more advanced/aggressive driving at the track than the generation 1 997 (2005-2008) with its M97 block.
In particular, the new engine became the building block for all of Porsche's 911/Cayman/Boxster engines going forward- even the 997.2 Turbo for that matter. While it may look similar at a glance to the 2008 997 model, it actually had a number of improvements including a completely new engine (the direct injection 9A1), optional PDK transmission, updated PCM (communications system, e.g. In 2009, the Porsche 911 had a major makeover.
