Part Number request: 996 GT3 plenum, throttle body
I just ordered the UAOS kit from @Porschetech3 and will soon have a bit of a project on my hands. I figure that while everything is apart, I'll probably replace my original plenum and throttle body with the 82mm GT3 models. I'm not convinced I want to drop the coin for the IPD plenum (had it on a Pano Turbo) because I figure if the GT3 plenum bolts up (it should), what was good enough for the factory GT3 is good enough for my humble C4S.
I haven't been able to find the factory part numbers for the GT3 throttle body (82mm) and the GT3 intake plenum. If you have that available, will you please post up here?
Thanks

The GT3 plenum won't fit the M96 engine.
I would hold off on getting the IPD Competition plenum.
Something new might be coming soon that will allow installing the GT3 TB much cheaper, and will flow better than the IPD competition plenum.

Read the current Jake Raby thread. BRS outlined a number of new products being tested for future sale.

I'm not hinting about the new intake system.
That intake is a thing of beauty along with the new airbox.
You can see that the biggest bottleneck is gone from the stock intake system:

The flow bench proved it too.
The volume of air available with this system is staggering.

And that’s why I haven’t gotten rid of my GT3 TB. I figured I’ve already had it, waiting for a better alternative to IPD, and it only took 3 years.

What I'm hinting about has not been discussed in that thread, but there is a lot of good info in that thread!

I will be excited to see whatever comes out. We have needed better breathing and flow to get more out of the M96 for 22 uears. Maybe, just maybe, we will finally be able to get an incremental 30 hp/tq at the wheel with bolt on parts. Add in heads and bigger bores and we have something special for the M96.
