Nice. Congrats.

New cayennes get aluminum intake plenums? Similar to IPD/RSS?

It's only your first 2011? You need to step up.

j/k. It looks great.

I re-read your post and see it now as an aftermarket part. I missed it the first time!

It's on my list of things to change.

Nice car

Turbostang, the car looks great and I bet it sounds even better now after break in. Perfect choice of options on it, well done. Enjoy it and let me know if you ever need anything. If anyone is interested in this exhaust setup, PM me and I will make you a nice member deal on it.
Thanks,

Beautiful car. I'm with Divot though - not sure why you only got one.

I'm 2nd in line to buy Pops' blue CTT in about 3 years, but if that falls through, you can sell me yours cheap. By then you might have two... ; )

Just for fun: why does an aluminum plenum really make a difference in terms of air flow? Aren't the physics the same, whether plastic or aluminum? If not, why didn't you go carbon fiber?

Thanks for all the compliments!!!

Alex,
The Cayenne was barely broken in when I was at your shop back in June (1k~ miles). Nice round trip drive from NYC to PA, help with the break in. Love the sound of the exhaust and the Evomsit when I hit the Sport button.
Thanks again and please send my regards to Jeff.

seankrider,

Wanted to get the Porsche Panamera Turbo too, but wife said no. She always telling me you dont need so many vehicles. Maybe in couple of years, wife might give the OK.
I cant really tell the different in performance between the stock plenum and the IPD aluminum plenum since the Cayenne already modded out with Fabspeed toys.
I had 30 days to try it out and if im not satisfy I can return it as per Greg from IPD. I end up keeping it, look nice inside the engine bay.
