Fabspeed/Maxflo Air Intake

Has anyone put the Fabspeed/Maxflo air intake on their 997 TT??

I had put the Evolution Motorsports air intake on my previous 997 C2S and it definitely made a noticeable horsepower difference but it was so screeching loud at redline that it actually physically hurt my ears. I desperately want tp do some simple mods to my 997 TT but I don't want to mess with its day-to-day driveability.

Thanks!

How did you determine the "noticeable horsepower difference"?

Basically, it felt faster and seemed to rev faster. It was banging off of the rev limiter in a way it never did before. The dyno test also says that it adds 10 horsepower.

forget about hp gains, how much tq. did it make? that's where the power is. there isn't a company to date that produces a better air intake then oem, when you find one that claims they do ask for dynomometer results.
