Very cool. I assume the air filter is within the carbon box over the intercooler?

Almost invisible unless you open the engine lid and then there's lots of pretty carbon fiber

Picking her up on Monday. Can't wait!!!

Air Filter sits deep in the engine bay. There is only so much space!

Just finished adding all the installation photos the best I could within some type of order. The is the first 997 Carrera Turbo kit so we are pleased with the outcome gaining over 110rwhp with 91oct and on a Mustang Dyno. Not to mention 100+F weather here in AZ. Working on a video so stay tuned for more info.

Just drove home from AZ (400 miles through 110+ degree desert).
My C2S has been transormed from a sporty cruiser into a screaming, howling banshee, burbling, burping and farting along the way, while devouring the freeway miles with a hunger I have not seen in a very long time.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I LOVE this kit and what it has done to my car!!

Working with Dan and his team was an absolute pleasure and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Looks and sounds good! Is it me or does the 997 rear bumper cover up the piping better then the 996? There is a little less stealth going on! LOL.

The 996C4S covers the piping better then the C2. The 997 C2 rear bumper does a good job. Remember we can black ceramic coat these parts too

Official product released here - http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/v...-p-140470.html

New 09+ DFI cars will be a totally different animal. We would need a car here to do the development.
