Default adding power kit

What is involved with adding X51 power kit to 2013 C2S ?
Is it bolt on mods or is there internal engine parts or stuff?

Instructions attached, only 30 pages

Increased performance is achieved by implementing the following measures on the engine:
• New cylinder heads with flow-optimized intake ports, valves and valve springs.
• New intake camshafts.
• New resonance intake manifold with switching flaps (material: aluminum sand cast).
• Modified maps for the DME control unit.

The following additional modifications are also required and the following preconditions must be met on
the vehicle side:
• New engine cover with carbon inserts, painted Titanium Grey.
• Sports exhaust system incl. tailpipes (if not already fitted).

This is a question man has been trying to answer for over 100 years. Surely its in our DNA now and has no root in reality. Go buy a brand new 992 Turbo S? Still need an ECU flash for more power :-)

Why do people put cold air induction , get stickier tires , put spoilers on cars, put a racing stripe , do tunes , put on headers ?
Because they want to.

LOL I enjoyed this. Wish women could understand it.

I see your point and I've been there. Now see mine: You could easily ruin a car with too much HP. After driving my son's unmolested 95' MR2 through rolling curvy roads I realized what being connected to a car is supposed to feel, it was Genesis for me. Computers ruined that feeling in the name of safety and more HP to the masses.
