Ok - S owners pay attention......
I took the car for a spin with the mystery holes blocked off.
The car is now night and day in the difference.
With the holes exposed (the way it has always been)......the car sounds like a Ferrari. It used to be sooooooo loud above 4000 RPM's that I found it hard to run it up into the high rev's out of fear of blowing the engine. I was wondering why people would comment at gas stations with things like "I thought a plane was landing" or "is that supercharged?".
My S was super-loud.
How do I know? Cause I blocked off those two lil' holes with tape and now the car is so quiet it's almost disappointing. Power feels about the same (pulls super-hard at 4000 and above), but it's not as "super-car" sounding and I can run up to like 6000 rpms and it's not a threatening sound.
I don't know if I like it better quiet or loud......loud is cool cause the car sounds so "911ish" - but the extra sound that is produced by these holes is almost too loud.
So, all S owners that want their car to sound more "Ferrari", do this hole thing to your car - you can always block the holes off if you don't like it. But trust me, these holes change the sound of the car 1000%!!!
