If you want to go nuts with the Cayman then you need to have deep pockets to go custom. If you want a lightly modified daily then it is a good platform. If someone wanted FI in a Cayman then just get the 718. If someone wants to swap the Cayman then just get the 4.0 GTS/GT4.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that was confused by the "aftermarket support" comment they made. I was looking at what kind of modifications could be made to the Cayman when I was considering getting one, and the answer seemed to be just buy a faster Porsche if you want a faster Porsche, and that gets really expensive.

I literally bought the 981 2.7l for the sound. If only my 16 BRZ could sound like that. I do like winding both out

But it was like $6500-7k for those 3 things I think. It's been a few years since I looked at all that stuff.

Ace header and a Harrop SC and 350+whp sounded pretty good too. High pressure and fast moving air through an equal length header with a 2.5” exhaust for a high pitched scream.

Because I can't afford maintenance on it and I wouldn't want to subject a Porsche to salt rot.

They were basing that on the little graph thingy that displays on the info screen in-car and their subjective butt dynos being fooled by the throttle mapping, but the scaling of that graph is different on the two that they showed. IIRC, the torque curve specifically was scaled differently, so it *looks like* it crosses the HP line at a different point, but the curve shapes are identical. That bit of BS really made me question the overall technical knowledge of both of them.
