DJ -
As always any write up with pictures is appreciated, even if nobody else at the moment will be doing it, I am sure someone in the future will

Ummm... easy peasy lemon squeezee. Just take out the old intake (I heard you have to cut it out, no way to get it out otherwise) then just put the new one in, hook up the intake tube, and your golden. I was considering buying an evo intake, and raffling it off for forum members. Like 10 bucks a ticket (id buy a ticket myself of course, lol) and id have to sell a minimum of 40 tickets, but one lucky person would get one for 10 bucks. Not for profit of course, Id use the money made (if any) to buy something else to raffle for everyone. Whod be interested?

Although I don't need it,I'm sure there will be plenty of other current & future Boxster owners would who could use it.

They are NOT the same. The EVO High Flow intake kit comes with it's own air box, the TrueFlow, which is what I have does not require the romoval of the stock air box like the EVO ones does. The TrueFlow just uses a drop-in filter that uses the exsisting stock airbox, but does replace the stock tube/snorkle. The TrueFlow is much easier to install. The EVO is probably better, but requires you to remove allot of crap that is in the way (like the intake manifold) and without a mechanical malual it would not be easy. The EVO also has its own housing for the mass-air flow sensor. The TrueFlow uses the stock airbox, so you don't even have to touch the sensor. Just thought you should know. :dance:
