How is the RS VRAM different from the reg.VRAM? The reg.VRAM intake has the special mounting holes used by the RS and factory supplyed 3.8 cars.I have called around and am told there is No difference between the top casting for the RS vs. Reg. 993's.

I've always thought the center flat spot on the intake cried out for some branding of some sort. Like they had something planned but never implemented. Porsched logo might be a little too cheesey but looks like it's missing a label or something.

... Oh ... and I wasn't lyin' when I said ... I have seen today with my very own eye's .. a 7/95 build car with a Varioram script manifold with 3K original miles on it!
Here's an RS manifold .. looks like some subtle physical differences on the outside as well ..
v.s. stock production

During the final pre-production checkout of the Boxster, Porsche discovered "a harsh and annoying rattle" (aka. resonance problem @ 2,250 rpm) with the intake manifold. Dupont and Mark IV (they designed and produced the intake manifold) discovered the buzzing/vibration came from right under the SCH In the PORSCHE logo. So they had to change the molds...
