Default Another Odd 997.2 PDK Problem? Interesting Outcome

Interesting video.

Starting at about the 3:20 point - discussion of a problem thought to be associated with a recent PDK replacement in a 997.2.

Very interesting and unexpected outcome.

Saw that a couple of days ago and like the channel... but turned out it was the exhaust flow. Totally makes sense since if your exhaust is blocked up and you're trying to push it, there's no where for that air to go and chokes up the engine. That said, I wouldn't have thought of an exhaust being blocked up.... haven't thought of that stuff since I was kid when you heard of pranksters stuffing junk into people's tailpipes.
