  1. I have an '04 Cayenne S. My brother told me not to get the car, but I went against what he said. My brother is a serious car buff. He has a Jeep Cherokee V8 he uses for work, and he has a X5 4.4. We raced! From a light I beat the Cherokee, but only pulled away after 50mph. Now I have 340hp and he has 245hp. To only pull away slightly after 50mph with 100hp more...that is sad. I realize that the torque and the way the Cayenne was designed was not to have as much torque, but in my opinion it was not designed properly. I raced the X5 4.4 and lost. 50hp more and still lost, sad again I say. Anyway the shifting problem is very evident. I would love to have a more sporty feeling. The X5 has a sport mode when the shifter is pushed over which I think the Cayenne severely needs. I read about turning the PSM off to get a sporty feeling please tell me what exactly the PSM is? What is it for and what will it also affect if I shut it off. Other than the shifting problem, and the let down of the nonexistent low end torque, I love the car. Hard to believe coming from the prior statements, but I just dropped the car off at the dealer to look at the trans. so I'm all hyped up. They told me there was a transmission upgrade on the software. Also I sometimes, in stop and go street traffic, got the feeling like the car stalled, it feels like its searching which gear to go in and can't decide. The dealer said the upgrade should take care of this.
  2. I was wondering if anyone know about acquiring an air intake or if they make a RAM AIR Kit for the Cayenne S
