Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suggestion
I test drove a 992.2 Carrera with Sports Exhaust and a 992.2 Carrera T.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Understand the new regs on drive past noise levels are in force. Lots of reviews saying cars as sort of silent (such as Harry’s garage AM DB12s). Assume same is true for 992.2 or is there a cut off date when it was allowed to be noisier ?
They are nothing like in times gone by but also not as bad as some make out.
Pretty darn quite at low speeds but Porsche have done a decent job of retaining some growl at the top end imho.
991.1 was the last NA if you really want the full noise experience.

I had a 992.2 carrera 4s for a week in Italy and the sound was fine up the rev range. The best part is the turbo waste gate noise
Wastegate noise ?
Thats a surprise that it makes any.
What sort of noise, a whoosh, or is it actually allowing the compressor to enter surge ? (like a 80's audi sport quattro S1)
It's a whoosh, it was a cab for reference so maybe different in the coupes.
Bit a drag to turn off all of the nanny aids each time you start it (you can program the shortcuts) but other than that I enjoyed it.
Also depends on the model.
I test drove a 992.2 Carrera with Sports Exhaust and a 992.2 Carrera T.
As the basic engine and exhaust package is the same I expected the same noise. How wrong was I. T was waaaaaaaaay louder. Far more pops/bangs on the overrun.
One of the reasons I now own a T. #oldboyracer

Not just me then
I have an aircooled, so none of that.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
