DesignTek Air Induction Kit Y-System

The 2009 and up Porsche Carrera DFI car is extremely impressive with the power it makes for both the PDK and 6speed cars. As proven time and time again both on the track and our dyno, cold air intakes work. DesignTek’s newest cold air intake kit is for the Porsche Carrera and Carrera S DFI car from 09 and up. It is made from 6061 aluminum and features a CNC machined Mass Air Flow sensor mount. It features a Y design which places a K&N cone filter under each of the rear wing air duct tubes to give you a true ram air design while under driving conditions.

The aluminum is extremely lightweight weight and does not conduct heat such as stainless steel. Each Y intake pipe is powder coated to further insulate it from engine heat. Inside the intake tube at the Y split is a deflector which forces the airflow to go up from each side directly into the throttle body without creating any additional turbulence. The intake is a direct OEM replacement featuring a 3.5 inch diameter neck with DesignTek silicone coupler to attach to the throttle body. The remainder of the intake tube is all 3 inch and TIG welded. The intake sits in the engine bay with an aluminum tray keeping the intake separated from the engine. This tray is powder coated black for a stealthy appearance.

As tested on a Mustang Dyno, our subject car was a 2009 PDK 997.2 Carrera running on 91 octane in an ambient temperature of 95F. The car baselined at 291rwhp and 249ft/lbs of torque. It dynoed at 305rwhp and 258ft/lbs of torque for a gain of 14rwhp and 9ft/lbs of torque after the intake was installed. The Mustang dyno has a 15% drive train loss, so the crank horsepower gain is 16bhp. This cold air intake works with all 2009+ DFI Porsche 997.2 Carrera and Carrera S cars.
