While my engine is pulled down...

...on my 2005 996TSCab with EVOMS' GT700 kit to replace my Sachs GT1 stage 3 clutch (with OEM DMFW) which has begun to slip around 0.6BAR after 10K miles of fun driving, I wondered about tweaking it a bit with items such as an IPD intake plenum and EVOMS' throttle body kit. The setup uses a Milltek 996 GT2 exhaust with the Hitachi MAF/EVOMS' V-Flow intake, plus EVOMS' Clubsport IC's, and it runs clean. Any comments on the IPD plenum and EVOMS' throttle body? Not much bang for the buck?

Well I have the plenum( splitter behind the TB) and a bigger TB .. but then I have a lot more HP then you.... with that said, will you see any decent gains after you install it? I doubt it... IF you have some extra cash then do it .... otherwise spend it on something else - like a smaller lightweight battery for example....
Loosing weight is another way to run faster....
