Staying stock.
If I need more power, I'll go directly to fancy plunbing. Porsche would not spend that much money on air for their race cars if it did not matter.... Note the filter...looks like paper. Actually looks like my 3M high end home A/C filter (filtrete).

I quote Chris Harris interview with Andreas Preuninger and Jörg Juenger talking about the GT3RS.
“Internally, the engine is identical to the regular GT3’s, but a new intake system with shorter runners, a larger plenum and one hilarious gaping-mouth of an entrance below the rear wing are said to produce a ram-air effect that helps release an extra 15bhp, lifting peak power to 444bhp. ‘We’ve gone very aggressive on the ignition timing,’ says Preuninger, ‘and with the better intake we have had to fit a revised, titanium exhaust. “
Porsche Motorsports now appreciates the benefits of the closed airbox with ramair scoops that the streets 2010RS clone airbox is standard on the new Cup cars.

I'm tempted to whip out my thermocouples and see how cold the air is at the filter if I take off my airbox...
Porsche 996TT engines hydraulically lift up the rear spoiler at speed and DIVERT and SCOOP tons of cold ambient air into the engine bay and a 996TT engine easily grabs it and the DYNO data do not lie.
Fabspeed Motorsport USA designed and fully tested our 996TT intake system and mapped IAT (intake air temperature)and recorded additional data. Empirical data and results were thoroughly proven.

Correct...Not to mention the revised rear bodywork that works with aerodynamic flow to funnel in cool air into the enginebay.
Now, bringing up the design and use of the current 997 cupcar is simply comparing apples to oranges.
