If you wait a week or so I shall be denoting my car which has most the X51 parts along with 200 cel cats and BMC filters.

Theory is a full X51 car with 200 cel cats and BMC panel filters is good for 400BHP up from your stock 381BHP. You'll also get crisper throttle response along with both more exhaust and induction noise.

On the cats though stick to straight pipes, don't do x-pipe that design looses low-end torque and I think straight pipes help retain the 911 sound.

Not trying to hijack your thread, but this is the only way I could attach a photo that we where discussing on PM.

Attached is the picture of my passenger side decklid hole for the x-51 airbox. I need to know if there should also be a hole in the black plastic to allow airflow through the spoiler

Thanks for your help.

Yep. Raise your spoiler before proceeding and use a dremel tool to cut thru that plastic panel...

by x-pipe do you mean that one that mixes exhaust from both banks? I can imagine that that would mess up the sound...

I have a factory X51 and I added 200 cpi cats, BMC panel, RSS crankshaft pulley , Softronic. I know the mods does not stack but the car should have about 400 at crank.

and what are the BMC filters? something like k&n, and they fit in the x-51 box? can you hear a difference? I've never heard of them until the last couple of days on this thread

BMC is similar to K&N,, i did the mod after my high flow cats and can't hear the difference due to the loud exhaust. Friends 997.2 TT can hear the difference after he installed BMC .
