Are these the "S" intercoolers?
No info on web that I can find - from what I gather they are 957 intercoolers and wondering if they are upgrades from my 955 04 CT. Does the 957 Turbo have the 955 S intercoolers?

Yes - I realize they are standard 957 turbo intercoolers - but when Porsche upgraded the 957 from the 955 did they use the 955's Turbo S intercoolers to update? From what I've read the 955 did not have all aluminum construction - which these appear to have.
Thanks

Hi guys, newbie here and looking to upgrade with the fvd intercoolers. Before I pull the trigger, a cheaper option would be to go for the 957 intercoolers, which are the same for both 957 Turbo and Turbo S versions. These are in alu vs plastic in 955 non-S so I anticipate an improved performance. So basically do you know it these would fit? And if so, a match to the 955 Turbo S intercoolers or a waste of time? Target is 600hp. Thanks!

Guys, some updates based on some research I did today.
In terms of intercoolers size
955 CTT (plastic ends, about 50mm thickness)
<
957/958 CTT / CTTS (all alu, about 60mm thickness)
<
955 CTTS (all alu, about 63mm thickness)
The main difference between the CTTS and the other two versions are the different connectors, which makes a 957 conversion easier than 955 CTTS.
Also FVD kit for 955 is in fact OEM 955 CTTS kit.
Hope that helps anyone as I couldn’t find anything solid on the net! And please jump in if you have comments!!

So, this means I can get the 957 intercoolers into my 955 CTT? I noticed the 955 CTTS intercoolers has a different lower hose coupling, requiring a curved "pressure pipe" elbow. Correct me if I am wrong...
