Hi All,

I have a 2009 3.8L NA 997.2 Carrera S which is at 385hp. Thinking about doing something minimal (5psi, 15-20% HP increase) with a P2 and a custom 3D printed airbox. Sounds like a good excuse to buy a 3D printer and a desktop CNC setup :) Technical, software guy, got a car lift and handy on the tools, but new to all this. Welcome any thoughts, guidance or direction!

Do you have the space for a P2 setup? The dimensions are kind of hard to quantify through pictures. I built my own setup from the ground up with a GTX5533 compressor wheel and housing which is probably a little bigger than the P2 probably not by much and I'm not sure at the moment once it's completely assembled that I'll be able to tuck it under the hood of an 08 Cadillac CTS without some unplanned creativity.
 
I assume it's going to be very tight, hence custom 3D printed airbox to mate to the two air intakes on the rear deck lid to the P2 and to the throttle body. Lets see if its possible.
