Yes it has been done

The guy that comes to mind is joelpirela, forgive me if it is spelled wrong. I will try to do a search. Look for the tread that states which intake for a 996, he has pictures. The stock 996 box is plain ugly.

gu9cci - It is pretty much a direct fit. Lots of folks have done it.

The weather is getting nice out, we are going to have to set up a local get together soon!

bgrpph has a spectacular aura aboutbgrpph has a spectacular aura aboutbgrpph has a spectacular aura about
the EVOMs CAI kit for the 996 contains the bracket to move the air pump
over when fitting their CAI to 996. You may be able to purchase it from them. It's the middle item in this pic of their CAI.
Though i've not installed 997 airbox, i believe this part will do the trick as the EVOM kit for the 997 doesn't include this
bracket, where it does for the 996. hope this helps.
