Default Fabspeed High performance Intake



I have this for sale: http://www.fabspeed.com/996-turbo-hi...intake-system/

Asking $600 which includes the back part of the intake. No need to mess with your intake; all the work has been done for you. Just plug and play. Prefer local pick up but will ship at buyers expense.

Hmmmm....so how does this thing work? I don't see how FRESH air would be directed (from the snorkels for example). It looks like it would suck hot air from the engine bay in...not a good idea?

I would imagine the back half of the airbox that seals up to the snorchel is either not pictured or missing. You have to have this to prevent ingestion of hot air from the engine bay.

I appreciate the bumps but I really can't comment on the design. It came on the car I bought. and as noted, it's Carbon fiber and front and center when you pop the lid. It's some nice eye candy.

I am no expert but I do not see how this would do anything but suck in hot air. This is from the Fabspeed website.
