I was wandering down the same road a while back. looking at the parts list, the 987 intake has vaccum/electronically controlled butterfly in the intake "T" that the ECU manipulates. as such I doubt that it is a direct drop in replacement.
On a side note, as for AOS, the 987 part can be fit into 986, replacing the plumbing from the AOS to the intake behind the throttle body (986 has one tubing, 987 has split two tubes) should suffice here.
I do not qualify even as a weekend mechanic, anyone having knowledge please chime in.
