The Fabspeed Carbon Fiber Competition Intake System replaces the restrictive factory air‑box on 997.2‑series Carreras with a high‑flow, dual‑conical cold‑air intake constructed from genuine carbon fiber. By providing colder, denser air to the engine and improving airflow efficiency, this intake delivers up to +14 wheel‑hp and +13 ft‑lb of torque (per Fabspeed dyno testing), while adding a more aggressive induction sound — turning your 911 into a livelier, more responsive sports car whether on the street or track.
Compatible with Porsche 997.2 Carrera (2009–2012) models. (Note: 2012 was a split year — verify whether your 911 is 997.2 or 991 before purchase.)
Direct bolt‑on replacement for the OEM air‑box and intake plumbing — no special modifications required.
Uses dual dry‑style air filters — no oiling required; simply wash and reuse— minimizing maintenance and avoiding possible MAF contamination from oiled filters.
Carbon‑fiber intake tube and heat‑shield (full assembly designed for maximum airflow).
All necessary hardware and fittings to install directly in place of the stock air‑box (clamps, couplers, gaskets as required).
Performance Gains: +14 whp and +13 ft‑lb torque at ~5,500 RPM (on Fabspeed in‑house dyno)
Weight Reduction: Approx. 4 lbs lighter than the stock air-box setup — helps reduce overall intake system mass.
Construction Material: Genuine carbon‑fiber tubing and heat‑shield for strength, lightweight characteristics, and thermal insulation.
Airflow Design: Dual‑conical cold‑air intake with CAD‑designed flow path for optimized air charge density and minimal restriction.
Filter Type: Dual dry‑media filters — oil‑free, washable and reusable to preserve airflow and avoid fouling sensors.
Installation: Direct bolt‑on replacement — no cutting, welding or major modifications required.
Intake Sound: Adds a pronounced induction growl under acceleration — enhancing the auditory character of the flat‑six.
Significant Power & Torque Gains — The improved airflow and colder, denser intake air result in noticeable power increases, especially in the mid‑range and at higher RPMs.
Aggressive Induction Sound — The dual‑cone intake and open design give a deeper intake growl on throttle, adding auditory presence that matches the 911’s performance character.
Lightweight Carbon-Fiber Construction — Reduces intake assembly weight, improving throttle response and contributing to overall weight savings without sacrificing structural integrity or heat resistance.
Maintenance‑Friendly Design — Dual dry filters that wash clean avoid issues with oiled filters and make upkeep simpler for street use or periodic track sessions.
Plug‑and‑Play Fitment — Designed to bolt directly into stock OEM location — simplifies installation and reduces complexity for end users or shops.
Durable & High‑Quality Build — Built by a reputable manufacturer using proven materials and backed by a warranty, offering long-term reliability and performance consistency.
