is there a parts number? Anyone know if available in the U.S.? You’re in BE? Darn, I was in Brussels not too long ago. I should have picked it up then.
@tourenwagen can u build me set? I’ll pay u $17! ( $16 parts plus $1 profit)
If you can add "extra luggage", pick up (Belgian) beer not metal mesh screens
Sounds pretty good to me and I love the fact that we have some choice with valves on the PSE. But the way some describe PSE, I am a little disappointed with the way it works. Was that with PSE on and were the valves open? From what others say, we have a button to enable it but the valves aren’t open all the time when I have it on? Makes no sense unless as some have suggested the car performs better with the valves closed at lower rpms. My M3 opens valves when I have it in sport or sport+ engine mode regardless of RPM. To get a similar function I have to go with a cargraphic module (as others have) or an aftermarket tune. Grrr.
I will keep PSE. I haven’t heard any aftermarkets that I love. And I think PSE sounds pretty good. But this is one of those questions like what color should I get? It’s just completely up to your subjective preference. Just be careful with internet videos and sound clips because they don’t always sound true to life.
Keep it standard for 3 months… if you want more growl after that, go aftermarket.
My Boxster 2017 MY has the last (standard) anti-social exhaust system. After that they got muzzled. I know I will miss the noise, but I want to test the standard 992 T for 3 months before I decide.
Saw my first T in the flesh in ice grey metallic and it was stunning! Had the lizard stitching, sport design in black and clear rear lights and it looked awesome🤓

PSA: This is important so I wanted to post it here rather than the other thread about newly discovered things about the T. And this subject is TIRE PRESSURE settings. The door jam does not even come close to telling you the full story. The owners manual combined with the PCM system is critical. My car came with the tires set to the door jam PSI, which is basically the highest "setting" so to speak. Your choices are:
Normal
Comfort
Full Load
Partial Load (or half load, I forget off the top of my head)
And you MUST set your TPMS system to match the pressure you are putting in your tires. The system will tell you the target PSI based on the above combination of settings. For me, the 39F/46R settings (or something like that) was too high. I'm set for 33F/38R for now. I live in NY so our roads suck and overly firm tires is not a good thing to have on them.
Whatever your preference, just make sure your TPMS is set accordingly so that it's functional! When I first checked the MyPorsche app is said my tires were over filled by about 16 PSI! Now I know why.
Appreciate the responses….some better than others. I’m from New York. Just keepin it real. I’m still 50/50. With my past sports cars it was a no brainer since night and day difference with aftermarket. The T PSE sounds decent but could have a bit more umph… We’ll see….
Dang, what a beautiful day in NY/NJ for a 2 hour lunch pickup drive!

I actually just watched a video on YouTube yesterday, a guy put on Akrapovic Exhaust on his 992 (with sport exhaust option) gave him a few more HP on the dyno, I don’t know if I’m going to do it personally. Here is a link:
One of the significant driving differences I’ve noticed between a 992 Base and T is the suspension. T with all of the upgrades as described for PASM Sport definitely makes it more fun/sporty scooting it around town.

I did some digging through parts lists as I was curious to see if the T has unique springs, dampers, etc or just uses the S setup. It could make sense for it to be unique as the car is lighter with less unsprung weight than the S (little brakes). I didn't find anything but I'm sure that info will be available at some point in the near future.
