I'm in the same boat
Car feels way to slow for 3.4 I think
I'm considering this mod since your original post
Not sure if I have enough knowledge to do so, but hey I'm quick learner
Btw. How did You manage to squeeze 987 air box there?
Is your engine lowered?
Mine is not and looks like not enough space

The 987 airbox is a must. It does fit with the engine not lowered. I put mine in while the motor was in. It's a pain in the ass. Basically you have to cut off any extra plastic on the box and remove the intake manifold on that side. It was a lot of trial and error but it is the best intake for our car. If you decided to put a wide band 02 sensor and gauge in I can walk you through the setup and tuning. All the gear that I am using below.
