Smile Happy Turkey C4S Targa Day from TurkeyWerks

This Meteor Grey 2008 997 C4S Targa (so rarely see these here) came into us for a mild power upgrade in the form of the the Tubi exhaust system, Tubi headers, an EVOMS V-Flow intake and IPD plenum. This is the way to truly get the best sound out of the 997S motor.

Arriving for surgery as a GT3 leaves...



Up on the lift showing the stock headers and exhaust system.


On goes the Tubi mufflers which not only add that wonderful sound but take some weight off of the rear as well.



Both sides installed from underneath...


Next up are the longer tube, equal length Tubi headers:


Factory vs Tubi- note the vastly improved collector design.


And installed:


Next we tackle the factory intake and remove the throttle body and plenum:


Parts removed in preparation for the IPD Plenum and EVO Inake:


In goes the IPD Plenum:


Followed by the EVOMS V-Flow intake:


All in all a very simple process that only take a few hours. There she is ready to go home:




The customer made a quick video of his car revving before and after the Tubi exhaust:

Be safe and have a great day/weekend fellas!

Wow,awesome!! Great throaty roar, I'd love to hear that in person. Do you know if there is any drone at highway speeds.

I'd love to this to my car if Porsche UAE would only honor the warranty after these mods. Do Porsche USA have any issues with these relatively simple mods? Reason I ask is because the local dealer here in Dubai states that Porsche AG is clamping down on modifications made.
