I would be surprised if it didn't lose some low RPM torque.

possibly. I don't spend much time below 5k though, so it wasn't a huge concern for me.

I have all the parts from a 2002 996 intake for sale if anyone wants to make the conversion.

One more on this topic..

Did you use the oem exhaust manifold?
I would like to try the 996 intake but cannot lower my engine since my equal length headers will touch the subframe support arm (98633108003)
