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.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All I've recently acquired a 987.2 which I love. It does have the PSE,are there any mods that can increase the sound a tad? I've read about de snorkeling but it appears to be a little ambiguous. I don't want anything crazy loud but just a tad more....

POST 2Original post

The PSE isn't "on" all the time when it is switched on. The valves open and shut at various times. If you remove the enginge cover there is a connector you can disconnect after which the valves are always open. I did this on my R. Sounds better without being ridiculous and cost me nothing. You'll find instructions online. It makes a surprising difference.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank you. If I take the fuse out, does that mean PSE will be on all the time irrespective of the button on the dash?

POST 4Original post

I tried a BMC filter and the de-snork myself but can't say it made any noticeable difference. I've a Carnewal exhaust which sounds good but I was after more induction noise really.

chinnyman said: Thank you. If I take the fuse out, does that mean PSE will be on all the time irrespective of the button on the dash? It isn't a fuse you remove, it's a connector in the engine bay. But yes, when that's done the PSE is in loud mode irrespective of the dash button.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
