Thanks!

Many Porsche guys started doing that a couple years ago basically to make the 996TT a poor man's GT2 (factory Turbo with RWD). It removes 75 lbs from the front end and takes away some of the driveline loss. I have seen reports of 5-10% higher dyno readings just going from AWD to RWD on these cars.
