What does it take to install the Factory Sport Exh


Recommended Posts

Is it a "Plug and Play" type thing or will they have to dismantle the inside of my car to add new wiring?

I thought I had read some where that it worked in conjunction with the sport switch, won't it just plug and play?

edited to add:

Does the 997 have a cutout from 3k -5k like the 996, and can it be by-passed the same way as the 996?

I hope I have this in the right section, if not I'm sorry please move it.

Thanks,

Chuck

It is very similar to the 996 install. If you want the full switched control then you would need to run the wiring through the car from the engine compartment to the dash. Add the relay and wiring to the fuse panel, add the vacuum connections in the engine compartment and mount the mufflers.

The signal for activating the flaps in the main exhaust mufflers is provided by maps in the DME control module, not via the vehicle speedometer as was done with previously

version systems.

Loren, is there a difference between the 996 and 997 sport exhaust muffler?
