Personally I would be so embarrassed to admit that I purchased this bit of snake oil I'd just toss it.

Not many mentally challenged folks in this crowd so you'll be lucky to even give it away, chariable gift/write-off maybe...?

If you had followed the link you would have noticed my comments about the "claims" from EVOMS - however you would have also noticed my statement that it does make a nice improvement (IMHO) in sound - with the top down on the cab you can hear it and it sounds a little "nastier".

In addition, if you want to change / clean your intake filter on a regular basis, its a hell of lot easier to remove this filter, clean and reinstall than taking out the OE air box (risking MAF, a bunch of cables, etc.) and removing the armada of screws necessary to access its air filter.

Don't be a hater dude - to each their own ...

@wwest: Case in point..... Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.


GLWS Dave, it's all about the sound!!

What do these intakes do for the 997.1?

Best of luck on the sale Dave,....

I had it on a 997.1.

The guys at EVOMS claim (yes I said CLAIM - see earlier discussion about snake oil ... ) that the intake adds 10-12 HP and ft-lb of torque. One should look at any dyno data with a healthy dose of skepticism and this is small compared to the overall performance of the car. So you'd have to judge if the relatively minor investment would be justified by the potential gain.

In my opinion, the intake made a raspier sound ... I think the large open cavity that this intake has resonates and makes for an interesting sound change. This is subjective by nature.

The one item that is not really debatable in my opinion is that this device makes inspection and removal/cleaning of the air filter MUCH simpler than the OE air box. Just to inspect the OE air filter requires complete removal of the OE air box from the car and disassembly of a bunch of screws. With this airbox you can see the condition of the filter at a glance just by opening the engine cover.

Can you provide a pic of the item, I might pick you up on this. I hear when combined with Eghaust & chip it's pretty effective. And there all on my menu.
Would need it shipped to Dallas tx not blogger though
Cost all in Matey?

shipping costs to most locations in Cont US are in the order of $25-30 for Fedex Ground ... tax, duty and brokerage costs can't be prepaid - so those would be extra - PM me your zip and I can get an exact quote next week (am out of town this week)

Be useful to know what shipping direct to UK would be too please.
Thanks

Bagso

Price is ok, how do you want paying?
my wife is "home" in texas in a few weeks but not back til mid dec, + this will take up some luggage space, so shipping direct may be best or she can ship on when she arrives. Prefer to ship direct to Uk if possible.
Can mail me direct at cpjmoney@googlemail.com
