In my opinion the wife's should remain close to stock (performance wise) so as to be completely dependable.

just my .02

Wow looks intense!

Is this a common problem on the CTT's?

Cracked headers? I thought they are cast units from the factory?

Mind sharing a picture of the crack? I am interested to see where it cracked at. First I've heard of this on a Cayenne Turbo.

It may be worth mentioning that this is no "ordinary" CTT - this vehicle has had quite a few "tweaks" to put it mildly so any engineered headroom that may be built into OEM parts might well be eaten up

The manifolds on the Cayenne are comprised of an inner and outer shell, sealed independantly. Mine were cracked on the outer shell too but it's nothing to worry about.

This is how my 957 looks like right now. Waiting on headers to arrive from Techart /taken down from a brand new car due to mods, bought them for €80!!! /
Ahh I see. Let me know if you don't like the headers!
