this is the membrane that opens and closes the exhaust when is in sports or regular mode, is a small canister that is in each of the corners of the exhaust of the gt3, inside is a membrane that acts when the switch is depressed

I know the 997 has a sports exhaust that is vacuum controlled but I thought the GT3 sports exhaust was "always open".

Sorry, I am looking at the parts list don't see any vacuum parts for a 997 GT3.

the gt3 has a sport button in the console where you activate the vacuum system it has two valves in each side of the exhaust, this canister is what I damaged and now they want 1200 dlrs for an entire system 'cause they don't sell the canister.........unbelievable!!!!!!
