Hi guys !

The first two plenum have finally landed in the US !
Available here : https://uniwerksdesign.com/product/porsche-986-carbon-fiber-intake-plenum/

There're ten more coming by early July.

I have to do an oil change on the Boxster and I'm off to the dyno, I contacted the guys and we agreed on how to do it.

I'll do two passes (after driving for half an hour, so everything is already up to temp), swap the plenums on the dyno, then do two other passes. That's the most accurate way of doing it without spending a full day on the dyno...

In the future I'll get it tuned too, we might see a good increase in HP there too !


Ben.

Add me to the list of individuals eager to see the dyno results for using this intake kit both without and with a tune.
