thanks alot, i love the sound of that package....
The 997 75mm throttle body is needed in order to run the IPD intake plenum for our cars. Albeit other cars running the IPD intake plenum do not need the enlarged throttle body, ours do. I purchased my throttle body from Road Sport Supply, but it is a part that you can purchase from your local Porsche dealership. The part # is 997-605-115-00. Yes, there is only one fitment the 986. At current I am unsure as to the potential gains from this modification but I will put my vehicle on the dyno next week. I will keep you and all else that may be interested in seeing the results. Personally, I am not one for dyno results but it seems to be the standard.

Call Road Sport Supply, 714.432.8815, ask for Bryan and tell him Carlos sent you. It has been an absolute pleasure working with them thus far.
