Aftermarket Induction kits - thoughts?

[Leftfootwonder]

Hi all,

My indy would shoot me if he knew I was posting this but I am always a little underwhelmed by the noise my 987CS makes when I poke the throttle anything less than 100%. I don't really want to go to the bother of a new exhaust etc but wondered if there would be any merit in fitting an induction kit such as this one?

Has anyone fitted one of these?

I don't want to lose any power but I do want a bit more engine (rather than exhaust) noise.

Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

That's a very good description and don't think it has any place on a proper motor car

marketing nonsense said:

DesignTek Air Induction systems for the Porsche Cayman S. Engineered utilizing state of the art CAD CAM 3D modeling, CNC machining, computer controlled Superflow air flow testing, rotational molding, injection molding and countless man hours, these systems represent the apex of air induction technologies. All of our systems install in the factory location and utilize the OEM "ram air" fresh air ducts for lower air intake temperatures and added power. Additionally, our systems also incorporate a custom cotton air filter and a 6" injection molded Venturi that acts as a vacuum for cold-air. All these components work together to create the most powerful Porsche air intake systems on the market today. This system adds 6-8 HP/TQ

It did make me chuckle. I will steer clear of that particular one perhaps but just interested to see if anyone has any experiences of them on 987's. Doesn't seem to be much out there.

I just ordered this with 82mm throttle and IPD plenum but turns out it's on back order so I cancelled the induction kit and ordered with BMC filter instead.

Kit was saying 7-10 days wait into design911 for the DT air induction kit but with covid could be ages.

I'm bored and need a car fix and BMC was in stock so hopefully I can get the revised bundle next week..

Simple and easier way to get a little more noise is to desnorkel it - takes 10mins, it’s free and you can put it back to stock if needed.

Gives a bit more growl over 3k - wouldn’t bother with the induction kit

Thanks for your replies chaps.
