It's a long shot but I am looking for a Fabspeed duel cone induction kit with the gt3 tb adaptor for the 997.1. I have been scanning eBay for ages but with no luck, is there anyone out there with a desperate need to sell one?

Fabspeed's Competition Air Intake for the Porsche 997 Carrera improves power by 19 whp and 21 ft-lbs of torque.
Whether that the actual figures you will get I doubt but you will get more induction noise and it looks the mutts with some gains I hope, you will need a map to get the best out of it otherwise you might run lean. That's why I have done all my other mods first so the map can tie it altogether and I plan to put another air duct in my deck lid to get cold air to both cones otherwise the one away from the existing duct might draw air from the engine bay. Phil has one on his gen2 and has done few reviews so check them out and if you are having a look check out a thread by poppopbangbang as he tests a bmc filter in standard box, k&n kit and Eurocup kit on a 996. K&N came out best (although didn't test fabspeed kit) so you might want to look at that kit as well and its cheaper but not a sexy and I am a sucker for a bit of bling hence the hunt for the fabspeed kit.
Others will say induction kits are a waste of time draw in hot air etc so really it's up to you. If you are thinking about it check out some of the US forums like 6speed or Rennlist as more people over there mod so you will get more reviews.
With regards to the 82mm tb mod just do this at some point you won't regret it, it just make the car breath easier and less restricted. Now there is the spyder kit as well it's a lot cheaper than it used to be, when I bought my Eurocup one it was about £750 haggling, ipd is about 1k but now spyder do plenums for £300 or less if you win an auction on ebay and you can get a tb for just over £100 if hunt using the bosch part number rather than the Porsche (tax) one.
