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.

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.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What's the best air intake up grade for a 2005/997 w/3.8 motor? is it worth it, does it really increase performance?

POST 2Original post

Manny, I just added the Fabspeed CAI to my 06 C4S 3.8L with crono package (valve tronic exhaust). Still running stock exhaust. Have not had a chance to dyno but can tell that there is definately an increase in air flow at throttle tap from idle and during full acceleration it roars! Fabspeed uses a carbon fiber tube and heat shield that look great. At $450 it is value added and easy to install. There are other alternatives but from an engineers perspective, they did not seem as efficient or well made. Sincerely, Platt
