Anyone got close-up pics of their drilled air box?
Anyone got close-up pics of their drilled air box? Any advice? Are there differing approaches to doing this?
Thanks in advance.

I think the cup car originally came with the snorkel cover just like the street cars...most teams drilled them or cut them. I have seen data somewhere that shows no improvement in torque or HP by cutting or drilling. They sure do sound better however! Mine is drilled but with the snorkel still attached.

I purchased the Fabspeed Cup airbox open lid from Automotion.com.
I run this intake with a chip, and bypass primary muffler and the sound is great.
The experts state these upgrades yield a 17 horsepower increase over the stock 250 hp.

Having said that, I haven't seen evidence to suggest that you get less power by doing those things either so if you like the noise, this might be for you.
Noise is a big issue on RS's and I cannot get on all the trackdays I would like to because of this. OK, I am running a decat and cup pipe set up with a drilled airbox so its never going to be quiet but I think I have more than enough noise for now

And here is yet another air intake attempt; any comments? (It is from the Porscheshop.co.uk : ("PowerFlow Induction Kit Porsche 911 964 Kits 5-7BHP")
