They could have probably fitted the exhaust whilst you went for a test drive in the 997.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Hello fellow 996ers
A request from Richard Heeley, BBC top gear, a facelift 996 C2 in speed yellow is required for filming on Thuesday am 23rd september, near Guildford.
If anyone can help and is prepared to allow Jeremy Clarkson a gentle track test please initially contact myself on [email removed] for further information and finalising planning etc
Your help and participation would be extremely appreciated

Let Clarkson near a Porsche? Are you mad? He's a self-confessed pipe-and-slippers, Jag/Aston/SL hairdressers car, 'scaredy-cat'.
James May is a proper English gent, who appreciates the heritage of a 911, and 'The Hamster' is one of us, but Jezzer?
Is there anyone out there with a speed yellow GT3, willing to swap badges with a C2?
That'll shut him up!
This request has now been extended to Silver and light gray colour cars, contacting Alex renton at the BBC on T 0208 752 5043 M 07977 503462 or [email removed]
Thanks Johnny
Hi Oliver
Looking forward to setting Jeremy straight about the 911.
I was supposed to get the car back tonight with the PSE, but the mechanics apparently have a problem with the wiring so will be tomorrow morning now! :-(
typical!

[
]Yes but then they couldn't have charged the arm and leg fitting charges
Was recently quoted by an OPC 4 hours labour at £100.00 ph to remove my sports exhaust and refit original [&o] I told them that my local Rapid Fit did the job whilst old box was still red hot 1.45 mins from start to finish. They didn't believe me [
] So I took my Boxster to my local body shop, who recently did 2 stolen and recovered insurance claims/major repair jobs for us, and they did the job in 2.15 mins! also they waited 20 minutes for car to cool a few degrees total cost £50.00
I would imagine Top Grear are testing the new 997.
JC doesn't dislike 911s per se, but his (humerous) angle is, "They all look the same". He probably wants a 996 to demonstrate that the 'new' one isn't really new at all.
And, if you meet him, he'll ask you 'amusing' questions like, " Is this the 2, 3, or 4 wd?" "Is this the fat or the thin one?" " Is this the turbo, targa or tiptronic?" "Is this the original 1964 one?" etc.
He'll know exactly what it is, but he'll pretend he is confused by all the different variants because, basically, "They all look the same and have done for 40 years".
So, humour him.
