I am running a 987 airbox. I think it is the top mod to do to the car in my opinion.

That's dash command for the ipad. I think it's on android too... And free for android.

To use it you need a Bluetooth obd2 reader that it supports. Plx makes some for android devices and gopoint makes them for apple devices.

I believe thats true for a 3.2 or bigger after 2nd cat delete pipes & 4" crank pulley.

I also believe the gold foil wrap is worth the effort & cost. That's the only remaining performance mod I want to do but can't in CA. :dance:

I think someone with a 2.7l would still benefit from the 987 intake... After all, the 987 base is a 2.7l so it's capable of making use of it. Not sure how large the plenum is in the 987, but I'm sure the plenum in a 2.7l won't restrict any extra air flow.

Why can't you do the gold foil in CA?
