Here is the absolute truth. The 987 intake will fit in and do a better job. You will have to have the car retuned due to the change in position of the mass air sensor. On a 2.5 motor I wouldn't bother changing it out. The stock is perfectly fine and THE best cold air intake out there. Keep a clean stock air filter and do not de-snork the car. Take my advice or not. Others will argue intake options, most of them with no dyno time or afr knowledge.
