any porsche expert on this evening? blown turbo?
my mate has just sent me this vid of his cayenne and it sounds just a little bit fucked
he says that all of a sudden it's gone "poof!" and now it sounds like a diseasal and it's got no power
has he just blown a boost pipe or has he blown a turbo?
or even the engine?

cheers for that 
when you press the throttle there is a pause, then a "woosh" and then the engine revs up so it takes about a second from when you put your foot down to the engine actually revving up
in this sort of condition is the car still in a driveable state or would he be better off getting it recovered to the garage to be looked at properly?

Being what it is and the cost of parts/labour i'd get it taken into somewhere and looked at, it could be as simple as a spark plug in the end,better safe than sorry though I guess.

Will be coilpacks 99%. Common problem. Change them all and the plugs at same time. Easy DIY job.
Get parts from Jasmine Motorsport. Genuiine were about a tenner each last set I bought. Plugs a little more.
