Thank you for all of the great input!

1) So I have a complete intake from a 996 - Don't I want to use the plenums/complete intake from that set-up for increased flow? Am I understanding correctly that this mod is what will require the 987 lid?

2) edc - I cannot get your link to work, but would love to see how you get air from the 987 box to the 996 TB. KRAM - are you saying that this can be accomplished by just using a silicone tube?

3) KRAM - When it comes to engine electronics, I read at a kindergarten level: How does one "push a 996" tune? Also, my car is an '03, my 987 air box is an '05, and my 996 intake is a '99. Which year 996 tune do I use and how do I account for the 987 box/MAF?
