good guesses; we'll see. my first thought was similar: inadequate fuel. JAAY's experience, and those of others who have done this swap, is an extreme rich condition (he was 10 to 1!!). in my case, i do see a lot of soot across the back of my bumper that gathers over time.

i wonder if the flow charicteristics of the 996 air box don't translate well to a straight-through MAF housing. on the 996, the MAF is VERY close to the airbox inlet & not entirely round.
