I understand now that the GT3 TB is too large and will do more harm than good unless I change the MAF, which I don't plan to do.



Can I use the 76mm 997 TB, 987 airbox, and Techno Torque plenum?



Will this affect the MAF and will I see any performance gains with this setup?

Thanks

I think TheRadiumKing has a long thread the answers just about any question you might have on the issue.

I'm not sure about the 987 airbox but there's a thread on it called 987 vs 986 airbox or something like that. It looks like a tad more than a bolt on

I actually started that thread sooo long ago, two years maybe, and my car still has minor issues with the maf and low speed drivability. Make sure you really want to take time to sort things out before making changes like this.
