997 MKII....keeping the S headers?
Was reading some interesting threads regarding the facelift changes on RT. I became curious as to whether or not the update will employ the current stock S headers. With direct injection and the extra power, will they continue to use the existing ugly and questionably designed headers? Might they switch to the X51 heads for the MKII S? what do you guys think?

Perhaps an answer can be provided by someone with access to the parts list for "Mark II" that showed things like the central red rear reflector for the wide-bodies. (Talk about cluttering up a good thing)...
I would imagine that they may have some fine-tuning to do in exhaust area if they have provided Direct Injection. That, alone, speeds up air flow I think.

Due to the lack of facts this is pure speculation, but if the gains are from DFI only then potentially you could add the X51 (or is it X52 now?) to the rumoured 385 hp and be pushing 405 - 410 hp.
That 410 hp with PCCB, some very light wheels like Dymags and PDK would be rather nice...
