It’s thread like this that give reputable manufacturers and distributors like RSS reason for renewing their memberships on 6 Speed.
RSS would also like to extend a special thanks to Mike at IPD for all of the hard work, R & D and dyno time that he has invested into these plenums. A big thank you also goes out to Deputy Dog and Eric dee for all their instrumental contributions regarding these threads. These threads are only as good as the questions and replies that are posted by members like you.
Each and every customer who called, e-mailed and PM their orders were some of the best customers we’ve ever spoken with and we look forward to providing more top quality parts and service again in the future. Speaking of which, stay tuned for the RSS big bore throttle bodies coming to a Group Buy thread near you later this month.
Big Cheers,
Team RSS

I would hope that you will soon post some dyno results with the combination of the Plenum and the Big Bore Throttle body it should be interesting!

the TB has been tested by tuners and has been shown to get very little increase. especially for how expensive they are. apparently porsche's TB design on the NA 996's is very good. i had a tuner tell me that he wasn't comfortable selling it to me because he knew how insignificant the gains were. he also knows that i'm a dyno freak and i would have busted it outline

Nice, I talked to Greg on Friday and he told me that the plenums for the 3.4L guys will be expoxied and ready to go probably Tuesday.
If anyone on the board wants to grab lunch near by when they go pick their plenum up at RSS/Stuttgart, PM me!

Chrome, I was told there is no difference between the 3.6 and 3.4 plenum as long as they are e-gas. I believe this would be 2001 3.4 up to 2004 3.6. Even though the 3.4 model # ends in 200 and the 3.6 ends in 201, they are exactly the same . . . I hope so. I'm receiving mine tomorrow for a 2001 3.4L and the model # on my invoice ends in 201 and says 996 01-04 3.6L.

As previously stated, I'll be receiving my plenum tomorrow. I'm going to dyno my car in the a.m., install the plenum, unplug my battery for 5 minutes, drive hard for a day and dyno again Tuesday a.m. I've already had installed Fabspeed mufflers and headers, Evo's first CAI and and an Upsolute chip. All of this was done 4 years ago. I wonder where I'll end up with HP and TQ numbers. I'll let you know. Since I'm in Denver, a mile high, I've been told I already lose around 20% of my power. Does the dyno adjust for this or do I have to add 20% back into my numbers? Thanks alot.
