The 991.2 Carreras have arrived and IPD has wasted no time manufacturing one of their incredible plenums for the new turbocharged 3.0 engine, perfect for new Carrera drivers looking to raise the performance bar already with one simple, bolt on install.

Porsche 991.2 Carrera S Turbo IPD Plenum





The Carrera Plenum is very similar to the Turbo Plenum with only minor modifications to the hardware package. No official testing has been conducted as of yet but based on IPD's past experience, they expect power gains to be in the mid 30+ range and torque over 40. Stay tuned for dyno testing coming soon!





All About IPD Plenums in Under 60 Seconds

Superior and more efficient design over the factory intake.

The IPD Plenums are products of efficiency that simply improve intake air flow and increase air velocity. The “Y” shape design and dimpled interior surface make air flow more laminar (less turbulent) dramatically improving power and torque across the entire RPM band. Smoother more optimized intake air flow will improve the performance of any engines. The more efficiently an engine breaths, the more efficiently it produces power.


Deliver impressive power gains regardless of modifications.

The superior design of the IPD Plenums optimize flow while increasing air velocity. Period! This applies to any Porsche engine, producing any level of power. The patented “Y” design delivers impressive performance gains for both bone-stock and highly modified Porsches. The more efficient design of the IPD Plenum will always outperform the factory air distributor. The factory intake will become even more detrimental to performance as your increase the power and torque outputs. The bigger the power, the better the IPD Plenum performs.


Produce substantial gains for both turbo and NA applications.

The Plenums always deliver considerable gains on both turbo AND naturally aspirated engines. It’s a fact that the Turbo Plenums do produce more power than the NA Plenums. But the Turbo engines also produce more power. The fact is that the percentage gains of the different Plenum applications are actually almost identical, around 8-10% depending on the specific model.


Do not require an ECU flash and will not cause a CEL.

IPD Plenums should never cause a CEL or require an ECU Flash. If a Plenum is installed correctly there should be no fault codes or running issues, only solid performance gains across the entire RPM band. The only issue that could possibly arise is the need for a new MAF sensor if you already have a degraded sensor or perform a TB adaptation. There is absolutely no need to re-flash your ECU after installing an IPD Plenum, Period! Although any reputable Porsche tuner could further optimize an ECU program to achieve even greater performance gains with the Plenum installed.


Aluminum Plenums run cooler and don’t suffer from heat soak.

The Aluminum Plenums do NOT experience heat soak under driving or racing conditions. It is true that aluminum has a higher thermal conductivity than plastic. In fact, aluminum is 650 times more thermally conductive than plastic and has a specific heat capacity that is 550 times higher than plastic. This means the aluminum Plenum actually spreads the energy it’s exposed to 656 times faster than the plastic and can store more than 550 times the amount of energy per unit mass. Bottom line, aluminum can absorb more heat than plastic, but it also takes considerably more energy to heat up and it's losing that energy way faster than the aluminum allowing the IPD Plenum to remain cooler from outside ambient air under driving conditions, ultimately improving engine performance over plastic. Plus, why would Porsche utilize aluminum intakes on GT3’s, GT2’s, Cup Cars and Cup R’s?

IPD Plenums continue to be the best performance bolt-on modification for Porsches on the market today, especially when considering the dollar per horsepower return. Each and every IPD Plenum delivers the performance gains claimed by IPD and is backed with their 100% money-back satisfaction guarantee.

As longtime dealers for IPD, we have installed more than a few of these for our Porsche clientele and we cannot recommend them enough. For more on this part, click here or message us with any questions!
