does the new tt sound any different compared to a stock 997.1tt?

The 997.2 TT has a more muted exhaust than the 997.1 TT and this is not based on youtube movies. It was said by a director at Porsche. I can send you the link if you want.

Thats odd. b/c the 1st thing I noticed when I started it up that it sounds more robust. Not so 'whispery' as the 997TTmkI.

Personal opinion of course.

Those 'bumperettes' have been put on Porsche's coming into the States for years now. It's to meet some sort of requirement, I think 5mph?

Agreed, I drove our first 2010 TT PDK Cab on Saturday. My perception was it was seriously louder than the 997.1TT. Much meaner spunding to me.
