    Matt, thank you for making yet another awesome vid! The droning between 2,000-2,500 is primary a result of the intake sound tube - plugging this up will cut down the drone you're experiencing! - Mike

    Matt, sounds fantastic. I installed the Akrapovic link pipes and rear section on my GT4 and love the sound. It doesn't drone but compared to Akra systems on the E92 M3 and M2 competition, it's loud and has some great character.

    When that thing gets on cam…the sound is so incredible. My 997 is the same way (albeit with ~1,500 fewer RPM to work with) and it’s intoxicating to wind it out.

    Get one of the Soul or CarGraphic Soul controller. There's some new updates on RL about getting rid of the intake tube and filling in some cabin area to minimize the sound so it's more natural (less drone).

    One thing you might want to consider is the rear-end toe links. Have you noticed any tail wag when hard on the brakes in the higher speeds?

  • @JCviggen1

    Any noticeable seat of the pants power difference with the race exhaust? In theory the single 2.5" flow path of the latter should be slightly superior but perhaps not noticeable as much..?

    I know you aren't a turbo guy, but would be curious to see your thoughts on the 991.2 (or 992) non-GT3 cars vs. the 718 GT4. I have a Carrera T now and am contemplating the GT4...

    Did you choose the ‘Steering Column Casing in Leather,’ not the option in the ‘Stitching and Seat Centres’ section? I wonder if it still comes in deviated stitching.

  • @mclarenjohnf1
    @mclarenjohnf1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Would it not be worth getting the valves that you can open and close by remote and not by what Porsche have decided is the right way. I do like the sound as you let it think about going towards the speed limit.

  • @randomhawks3232
    @randomhawks3232 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for posting Matt! Soul OAP & Rear (w/ Cargraphic valve controller) is a sweet exhaust combo & much better tone on my 718 Spyder with the top down. Haven’t noticed any drone, so maybe the borderline drone is more a result of the closed off cabin. Curious about the Dundon as well, so looking forward to those videos.

  • @turahtid
    @turahtid 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the best combo is just the rear section only. Removing the OPF filters causes drone.

    So I have heard conflicting opinions about the gear ratios can you have fun driving the car at legal speed limits by short shifting and not always going to redline or is it pretty much a three gear transmission?

    Can the Dundon be hooked up to the stock back box? Maybe that is another combination to try out as well as hooking them up to the Soul back box.

      Almost every car has a safety clunk you have to push through to get into first. If you shift into second then first, it eliminates that and goes in much smoother.
