Per my previous post - RIMS and TIRES where installed today. I am VERY glad that I went with the 45 series as it looks great and the ride is better if not the same as my 18".

Does the intake replace the BMC filters, did you have the BMC filters?

Did not have the BMC - had stock paper Porsche. Regardless of performance, the sound is so incredible that if your on the fence between this and BMC - it should be a no brainier (unless you like the typical whine from under the hood).

What did it take to install the dead pedal? Was there any drilling of the car? I have the Rennline pedals in my 911 and the dead pedal required drilling into the car and I just don't want to do that to my Cayenne yet.

There are tabs for drilling if you want to but I did not. The back of the pedal has 2-3 strips of
3m double sided molding tape. I used the tape only and have had no issues (been about 5 months since install). To install i took the interior rocker molding trim off, the hood release (1 clip) and then pulled on the kick panel just enough to slide the big dead pedal tab underneath it. I cleaned the vinyl foot rest with the included alcohol pad which really allowed for good adhesion. Overall, the hardest part is pulling back the kick panel - the plastic is very tough and your fingers will be hurting for sure. It is worth the effort as beyond looks, it saves your carpet and really offers a tangible place to plant your foot in hard turns.

Thanks, that is exactly what I wanted to know. The install doesn't sound too bad at all. As for pulling back the paneling, I've got a nice set of interior panel removers which should keep my fingers from getting the worst of it.
