I doubt the airbox makes a meaningful difference. I do not think it has the whole package, and am pretty sure it is on stock turbo's.

Marketing material suggests otherwise, but, it is a marketing brochure.
It is certainly lighter than stock. Again, its strange that there is no carbon Y pipe.

I think that's the highest MSRP for a 997TT coupe I've seen!

I love this car and it's mods - very unique which is what you want. It honestly makes seeing the car after time far more rewarding than a typical plain Jane spec build in terms of factory equipment.

Circling back to the car at hand - In terms of induction all oem parts are best except for the larger turbo inlet pipes

Yes it looks cool but the larger custom parts typically fail

Also I was informed the expensive aftermarket y pipes that are stainless steel are more susceptible to heat

Stay with the oem y pipe its not metal but a composite

Headers stay stock unless over 900 horse, port and polish inside edges - this is on my to do list
