Thanks
No. You might notice a slight increase in mid-range torque, but that's it. That combo is best when used with a tune, but I don't recommend a tune on a stock engine. Plus, depending on the tune, you can get some wild fuel / air mixtures. I had a friend with an 09 Cayman that had one of the two famous tunes installed. You could smell raw fuel at the exhaust, which caused headaches from the CEL due to the fuel being sniffed by the 2nd O2 sensor.

I have an IPD plenum and 83mm TB on my Cayman with no tune. If I had it to do over, I'd spend that $1K on suspension parts from Tarrett.

+1 on that statement.. On the POC (Porsche Owners Club) They consider these cars a 'momentum car' for which they are awesome at..
