engine sounds
I saved a web site of porsche exshaust notes and the one sound that i listen over and over was the 964. Interesting because the way it changed it's demeanor at a certain rpm. Like going from mono to stereo, three fourths thru the tach curve. What is this change taking place?

did the 964s have the intake resonance device like the 993 -- or when did vario-cam come in?
could have been one of those.

I think Vario-Cam cam in 91 towards the end of the 964 life cycle. I could be wrong though as I am more familiar with the 3.0 SC motor.

VarioCam made its first appearance in the 968 four-cylinder 3.0 engine.

I believe Variocam made its debut in the 911 series in the 1996 993 model. None had it before that. It accounted for a bump in power from the 1995 model 993, which was rated with 270 hp, to 282 hp.
