Air Induction Kits

Designed to give 25% more air flow, which in turn gives more power.

Installing the cold air performance enhancement kit will make any standard 997 with factory mufflers sound as if you have added a very mild performance exhaust. This is perfect for any 997 owner that wants his car to sound slightly more aggressive than stock.

The cold air kit adds 1.5 liters of cold air by eliminating the plastic factory muffler in air pipe, this allows the engine to draw cold air across entire topside of air box (left and right rather than just from the right) Adds 0.42 seconds faster acceleration 3000-6000 RPM.

The cold air kit is made from 4 ply silicone tube - better flow from air box to throttle body.

No "Check engine" lights as you retain the factory MAF.

Kit Contains:
1 x Cold Air Hose
1 x Jubilee Clip 12mm 91-110
1 x Hose Screw Clamp 9mm 80-100
1 x Alloy Stopper plug

*Please add a K&N / BMC or DesignTek air filter with this kit as it is not included

Aluminum Intake Plenum "Competition" 82MM + Throttle Body.

Porsche has been controlling engine output by restricting the inlet track for decades. This has been successfully accomplished by utilizing smaller throttle bodies. This simple power control solution has been a very effective way of preventing lower level models from out performing certain flagship models, especially models with prolific racing pedigree. Although the factory engine packages are fantastic performance machines, they are engineered and developed to achieve specific performance numbers that satisfy a target demographic and compete with rival brands. Unfortunately driving enthusiasts who seek an elevated Porsche driving experience require performance levels well outside the target market.

All of the IPD Plenums deliver substantial power and torque gains, but when combined with larger throttle bodies they perform even better. All of the IPD "Competition" Plenums utilize the next largest size throttle body offered by Porsche. In this case, the Competition Carrera upgrades the factory OE 74mm throttle body with Porsche's 82mm 997 GT3 throttle body. All of our Competition Plenums are designed to perform with cars equipped with high performance exhaust systems. The more extensive the exhaust system (headers, kats and mufflers) the better. Optimizing air intake and exhaust together creates a balanced performance package that allows the engine to inhale and exhale more air thus creating more power and torque.

IPD has pioneered another new Plenum design with the Competition Carrera Plenum. Laminar flows and volumetric efficiencies have been further enhanced with our unique and innovative internal merge collector area. This completely new approach has yielded not only great performance gains but more linear power delivery and improved throttle response as well. Gains vary depending on pre-existing mods and quality of after-market exhaust installed. As we all "should" know, horsepower and torque become harder to find and typically more expensive as we climb the proverbial performance ladder. That being said, performance components yield different power gains depending on the order they were installed. IPD tests and evaluates all products on bone stock cars, this establishes a level playing field and a better "apples to apples" comparison. The Competition Carrera Plenum however is designed to work with applications that are already moderately to heavily modified. Power gains will vary with each Carrera, but the bottom line is, there will be noticeable and impressive gains that are sure to make any Porsche Carrera driving enthusiast smile.

Power improvements will be fully realized once the factory ECU/DME makes all the necessary "adaptation" requirements. This process can be expedited with a series of "hard pulls" or spirited full throttle acceleration runs through the gears. Of course this should only be performed on a closed course circuit.
