obviously no performance gains, but with cone filters might look kinda cool. it says they fit all 928. Highly doubt I'm going to fit that anywhere in the 86.5 bay. but the S4's maybe ?

I'm having a hard time pichuring where they would go.
Are they claiming you can clamp them onto the airbox so you can suck in some nice hot fresh engine bay air?

Seams like an excellent way to increase your intake air temps.....

Through the hood, like antennae?

Aye thought of it. Pair of foam tipped snorkels poking through the hood. But then physics ruined the mental excercise by introducing Bernoulli into the equation.
Remember what happens when you blow across the top of vertical straw whilst its end is submerged in fluid. Fluid RISES through the straw.
But that would keep the water out of the airbox.

That's what I was thinking, tons of heat if they were mounted on the upper airbox. I have an 86.5 so I doubt i could squeeze those in anywhere. here's the link.

Claims not credible for the 928, IMHO. Would be a waste of cash you could use for something else on your 928.

Replicate the short lived Blackbird setup, that would be a start.

Did anyone ever find out what happened to the Blackbird setup from 928 Specialists? It has not been available on their website for some time now. I think there were only 2-3 that people here on the list have.
