Default 991.2 Stock Intake Upgrade for C2S???

Got off the phone with Dino at Speed Circuit (awesome guy by the way) after picking his brain about upgrading my intercoolers & Turbos since Tial M660 is out of stock and decided to order Pure Turbos, AMS Intercoolers, Tial Fresh Air tubing, Tial turbo elbows and Flat 6 diverter valves. But the many times I have pulled my bumper the biggest eye sore is the stock intake, its really loose at bottom of the box and I even had to patch up the rubber gasket on the top. I see Eventuri makes an amazing Carbon Fiber intake for the 991.2 Turbos but no one makes one for a .2 base/c2s/c4s/gts/t..... Anyone know any options out there at all or am I stock with the gigantic boxy stock rubbers.....

I think you're referring to the air ducts for the intercoolers. No one makes an aftermarket one because there is no way to really improve on the stock part. As for the intake for the turbos, air filters and intake tubes are about it.

No I’m referring to the two plastic intake pipes that lead into the intercoolers. Surely you can improve on all the restrictive air that the stock OEM intake pipes have… this is from a 991.2 Turbo by Eventuri

These carbon pipes are leading into the throttle body, i.e. post intercooler. Is that the pipes you are referring to?

Look great, and too bad they are hidden.

Pure turbo will need more flow from piping so upgrade imo
What tuning are you getting?

@Softronic scott if I’m upgrading my turbos, intercoolers and diverter values along with pipings and elbows, will you need to send me a new flash? As blackcheetah mention and Dino at Speed Circuit mention to me, a new tune is recommended as a result…..

Simply no with in reason, unless they exceed what I have programmed in our initial tune...And I would program if such changes would affect the tune...

@Softronic the initial flash was for my 991.2 C2S with just headers and sport cats, adding the bigger turbos/intercooler essentially puts me over the Base/S/4S/GTS/T bracket and more into the GT2 numbers now no with the increase airflow…..
