75 mm intake setup recommendations

I am toying with doing the 75mm throttle body and y pipe setup. Who has the best pricing on a setup like this?. I like the AP (Cayanne) throttle body/plenum setup and was thinking of pairing with a speedtech y pipe. Any other suggestions?

no go with IPD and speedtech

Not sure you gain much though without doing turbos.

Maybe look at the 68mm set up

I have a Vivid Racing Y pipe and 74mm IPD works well but I only bought it for use with future Turbo Mods gains are not huge without i dont think.

Mods are umw stage 2a turbos, billet diverters, 997.2 gt2rs intercoolers, LWFW, clutch, gt2 clutch mod, evoms intake kit, AP intake box, europipe stage 2 exhaust. the ipd plenum I am not a big fan of and I would still need to get the throttle body as well.

Just for curiosity, what size are those 2a turbos? With your setup, I guess the bigger TB and plenum will help. I have 75mm plenum, TB, and Y-pipe; I got them when SharkWerks parted out their "Great White". The plenum was custom made by Turbo Mike and the Y-pipe was one of a kind custom made too.

Interesting comments on the IPD

I have mixed feelings about mine also, after pressure testing, and having that thing leak from about every connection, I would prefer a welded part instead of the threaded connectors. The leaks were not very substantial, but they were present, and I did my best to address them short of removing the plenum from the car.

If I go to a larger TB, I may go with the Agency Power setup, however, it appears as if the AP setup does not retain all three of the stock Y pipe mounting points, which I prefer, but may be able to live without.

I believe there was some data showing an improvement in spool and power with K24/18g's, need to re-read those threads.

Looking forward to the results.

I'd like to shift my torque curve around 400 RPMS to the left.
