Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.
Discussions that report identifying a cause
1
0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Reported cause
In addition to the backwards MAF installs the other issue is contamination from the oiled filter resulting in voltage drift and eventual failure of the MAF sensor.
Leading evidence: 'contamination' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'contamination' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

If you dont know how good they are...they are good! K&N claims 23rwhp and we have independently tested it and got 18rwhp. I have sold 60 of these units and have had very happy customers.
Intake kits can be done by yourself. So easy K&N includes full picture instructions -

K&N on the dyno
Dan - Not exactly true on the CEL light...both my brother and I put in the intake....MAF pointed correctly....I haven't gotten a CEL...my brother has....both 01 996s.....
I don't think its effecting the performance in anyway (at least the butt dyno) on this car, but the CEL light is on with the MAF pointed the right way.....

I have Fabspeed intakes for the GT3. Give me a email for details.
You do not have to flash the ECU for the HP gain, however we do the Upsolute ECU reflash which is $700 and will gain about 12-15HP more for you. Sound is great!
Call me with questions.
Ill be calling you up next week then to order. Im going to wait for my exhaust before I reflash.
How much different will this sound with stock exhaust?
In my past experience with other cars, it will probably be louder or should I say more noticable with a stock exhaust since you will not have the exhaust noise. Just my 2 cents...
If you have an engine related problem that you are hoping to have covered under warranty you will have to reinstall the original intake BEFORE you bring the car in to be serviced at your Porsche dealer. The service advisors have some leeway but anything requiring a DSM sign off (FYI. PCNA just/is hired a new one for southern California) will result in a voided warranty.
In addition to the backwards MAF installs the other issue is contamination from the oiled filter resulting in voltage drift and eventual failure of the MAF sensor.
Have your brother stop by Autozone and read out the fault code. Most CEL faults will result in reduced performance especially those caused by a primary load sensor (MAF) failure.
do you work afterhours? Can I order one now? i am leaving town tomorrow and won't be back for a couple of weeks - would like to have it shipped now so I can have it here by the time I get back and get it installed then - please pm me and let me know...thanks!!
