I installed the AFe intake and the IPD plenum at the same time, and dyno'd the car before and after. GaIned 7 horsepower at peak, and all of 2 ft-lbs of torque.
This was AFTER installing headers and Cobb tuning..

Exactly, the biggest bang for the buck is Sport Headers and Tune on an N/A motor. IPD and air intake are almost redundant when headers and Tune are in place. Sure they help, but not noticeable.
Get Sport Headers, LOVE THEM!!

@MagicalCanoe , did your OEM scoop fit without significant gaps? @ryanmonto , how about you? Any chance one of you know or could look up the P/N for your OEM scoop?
I also bought an aFe Black Series intake, and my OEM scoop (991.110.261.02) leaves a 3/4" gap at the widest points. There is a new scoop revision to 991.110.261.03 but it's unclear if there is a size difference or it was simply a new manufacturer for the OEM part.
The pics below are from my 2013 911S - install was a breeze, but this scoop fitment is a big ol' bummer.

@MagicalCanoe I notice you've got the extra heatshield from the recall installed. This didn't impact your ability to install the AFE intake correctly? AFE is telling me the intake doesn't work with the heatshield. It's the only thing preventing me from ordering this intake!

I ended up calling aFe and they confirmed that my model OEM intake scoop (Porsche P/N 991.110.261.02) does leave a sizeable gap with both the Black and regular series intake boxes. Michael said their R&D group will work on a solution and will swap my intake box when a solution is ready. I'll post here with the final results for anyone with my model OEM scoop. Honestly, I'm really impressed with the customer support on this issue and can't wait to see what they come up with. If the new inlet fitment is as good as the rest of the box, this is going to be awesome. Even driving around with foam tape as a temporary fix, it's already smoother and slightly peppier.
Can't wait until aFe has a solution for my older model scoop! That was really awesome of their customer service to offer a corrected box swap as a solution. They also confirmed that it is okay to drive as is since any leaking air will be on the dirty side of the filters.

Seems like something worth contacting aFe about! If you reach out to them, please post the results
