What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

I simply can't justify the IPD plenum at (literally) 10x the cost of a 997 plenum. The 997 plenum is also 74mm to go with the beefy throttle body; it just doesn't have the sexy aluminum body and the machining inside. I'm sure IPD's stuff is crazy good and superior to a stock 997 plenum but I figure that 1) it's bigger volume than what my 3.2 came with, and 2) at 10% of the cost of an IPD plenum, the 997 unit will be "good enough."

Mind if I inquire about the IPD intake tube? I have all the same plenum and throttle body you have but have not installed them yet. Interested in that IPD intake tube but didn't know you can get it by itself.

Yes, I just emailed them through their website and asked. It was spendy; I think it was about $175 or so but I figured it would be more reliable and only if little pricier than piecing together various silicone bits to cobble an intake pipe together.

Thanks. Good luck with the install.
