They tried to fabricate a whole 996 intake to fit but couldnt do it, i think Todd is the only one to do that. After i got it the car screamed and ran much better and it was super loud I dont have my recipet on me but i think the custom intake was around $400 and about $300 for the install. That is a must to do when using one of these 3.4/3.6 conversions to get the full potential. Now all I need is Caymen S headers (i'm using aftermarket 3.2, yes i know its restricting the 3.6).
Do you remember who you worked with at Fabspeed? It seems like all we need is the enclosure to keep the hot air out, a cone filter, the 85mm MAF housing, and a suitable pipe or tube to get to the throttle body.

I have a MAF housing that I cut from a 996 airbox but I'm afraid that it isn't quite long enough on either side of the maf to get a good reading.

Does anyone know of a good source for the enclosure to put the filter in and an 85mm MAF housing. The rest should be pretty easy.
