The Fabspeed Competition Air Intake for the Porsche 987.2 Boxster, Cayman, Cayman R, and Spyder (2009–2012) is a high-flow performance intake system designed to replace the restrictive factory airbox and throttle body inlet piping with a professionally engineered racing-derived solution that significantly improves engine breathing and sound. Developed in collaboration with a professional Grand-Am/IMSA race team, this system promotes smoother, less restricted airflow into the engine, yielding notable gains in horsepower and torque across the RPM range and sharpening throttle response. It also cleans up the engine bay by removing the factory airbox clutter, simplifying maintenance access. The use of dry-style performance filters means no oiling is required—just wash with warm water and reuse—making service quick and straightforward.
Designed for all Porsche 987.2 Boxster and Cayman models as well as Cayman R and Boxster Spyder from 2009–2012.
