The 997 Plenum works great and is worth every penny you pay for it. Just can't say that for the IPD Plenum for normal people on a stock engine.
I think its all opinion on the worth. I think $1200 for a tested engineered mod in a complete kit, is not that bad a price tag. Now the question is an individual question as if its worth it to them.

Point is everyone has different values, and we are a limited market for a seller when it comes to research and development they have to have a ROI.

How much HP do you think this $800 IPD Plenum is going to give you over the $70 997 Plenum on a stock 3.2 Boxster engine? 1 maybe 2 HP maybe none?

It seems this 997 Plenum has been seen and used a lot for mods as when I bought mine back in Jan 2015 it was only $34 and now it's $70, but still worth every penny at the higher price IMO.

What $1,200 complete kit are you talking about?
