I noticed that you offered a CAI for the 997.1 that also had a cap to seal off the Helmholtz resonator (sealing it off increased the intake sound significantly). I believe a number of other suppliers produced 997.1 resonator caps as well, but I haven't found any 997.2 resonator caps so far. I am wondering why your 997.2 product doesn't have such a cap? I noticed an item labelled "resonator" on the engine diagram in the 997.2 PDF brochure on the Porsche website. I am wondering if you may know whether sealing this is possible and if so will it increase the intake sound?
Thanks.

No problem! Just give me a call/email directly when you are ready to make it happen, i'll be sure to take care of you

If the factory 997.2 airbox has a resonator it is an internal construction that can't be accessed like the 997.1 I don't have a factory airbox to double check for you but I know there is nothing we can do to cap off like the 997.1. Pictures below compare to the two factory airboxes. You can see have the 997.1 has that resonator tube to block off while the 997.2 does not.
