Airbox Size Between Normal And Tt

[alter_schwede]

hey all,

are there any major different between the original airbox for normal 996 and the TT, e.g. size, volume, noise etc.

cheers,

Yes. They are very different in size, shape, mass sensor location etc.. The GT3, GT2, and TT share similar airboxes as the intake and engines are the same engine design.

would you get more air if that airbox modify to fit a 3.4L?

No. The whole system (airbox, intake manifold, variable cam timing, exhaust) is finely tuned in terms of resonance frequencies and gas dynamics (open and closed end reflections). If you change one thing, you are likely to screw up the system.

You can get better sound tough :cheers:

looks pretty easy to rebuild this one, need only to rebuild the cover portion so the cold air-intake fits to the original hood.

but what that in picture shows under the MAF tube, is there another hole?

another thing what is the depth of the box and appr. cost?

thx in advance.

cheers,

Tony
