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.

It uses a foam filter which I presume isn't oiled so won't affect the Air Sensor.

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

Hi. My first post on the forum although as a former Jag XKR owner have been a contributor to others. Last car was a BMW M3 which I know is often a forerunner to 911 ownership. Anyway, have been back-reading lots of post particularly around the obvious mods of exhaust and induction. Before this, however, my car..... About a month ago I bought a 2001 996 C4 Manual Coupe - Silver with dark blue interior. 50k on the clock and unmodified. Very pleased, obviously, and like many have fulfilled a lifelong dream in buying one. Of greatest note with this car is the way it grips! So, back to mods. Has anyone looked at the DesignTek Induction Kit (Blue as opposed to Fabspeed Red). It uses a foam filter which I presume isn't oiled so won't affect the Air Sensor. Also are the DesignTek exhausts basically the same as Fabspeed? I ask this as Paragon are a supplier and I can get to them fairly easily. Finally, I live in Sussex on the south coast and would welcome any 'Hi's' from the Sussex crowd including any Goodwood participants/GRRC members. That's it for now. Cheers Principal Mark

POST 2Original post

Hi Mark! Sorry I can't help with the DesignTek bits, but welcome to the forum!

POST 3Original post

Welcome, I recently heard a design tek exhaust and it sounded fantastic.... and had a very good report (very close to fabspeed if not the same - according to reports). Sadly I know nothing about the filter... However... i'm sure you'll be sticking with Porsche from now on....

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Chris and Richard. Yes I wil be sticking with Porsche for a while; just trying to get out of the habit of treating each drive like a practice session for Le Mans!! Mark
