No - it won't, at least not without modifying the plumbing.

Thanks, that's what I thought. Compared several pictures, and they look quite similar though.

Not sure if this is true. I think the mufflers on a 997 have 996 part numbers. Don't quote me on that though.

The mufflers may be the same, but the plumbing needs to be modified.
