Great video, 992 GT3 sounds and looks a right handful compared to the 991.2 GT3RS! makes the 3RS look and sound tame! GT4 in my opinion now sounds like a 3.0ltr Turbo, i hope not....

The guy really captured what us Porsche petrol heads are wanting to hear, this is the first footage that i have heard when the Speedster actually sounds nice... would that be because it diddn't have the PF fitted??

Very interesting, thanks!

Comparing the GT3s and Speedster to the 718 GT4, the GT4 has a much bassier exhaust note and sounds closer to the 992 Carrera and 718 F4T you can also see and hear in the video. Maybe it's just the character of the new (non-GT3) 4.0ltr engine?

Are we sure its a non GT3 4.0ltr? hope not.. Yep 100% the PF muting it, shame.

Maybe it's just the lack of the final 1200rpm that's making it sound really bassy? Whatever it is, it's not nice. Not as st as the F4T 718 though wink
