Turbo wing on 997.2 C2S

All --
I had the OEM 997.1 Turbo wing installed on my 997.2 C2S. Along with the Turbo wing, you may need the following parts:

1 997-631-052-01 AS STOP LIGHT
1 997-624-056-04 AS BLOWER
1 997-512-611-01 SEALING . LID.REAR.
1 997-512-711-00 AUXILIARY SEALING
2 999-591-712-40 PLASTIC RIVET
4 900-378-223-09 SCREW HEX-HD. 6X25
1 997-622-670-00 WIRE HARNESS

The 997.2 C2S airbox's 2 intakes are more forward than the 997.1 Turbos intakes, which are more aft. Therefore, the stock snorkels do need to be modified somewhat to fit over the intakes -- they are a near perfect fit now. Also, the fan, and raise/lower of the spoiler works just like in the Turbo.
Here are some pics of the final product:





Below are some pics of the install components:

OEM Airbox



Note extra brace as Turbo wing heavier than stock

Fan and snorkels added



Turbo wing 3rd tail light operational, not original from C2S



Many, many thanks to Sewickley Car Store in Pittsburgh for doing an awesome job on this mod!

Thanks all. The most difficult aspect was getting the correct wiring harness from Porsche (to control fan, spoiler raise/lower, light, etc.).

1 997-622-670-00 WIRE HARNESS

We kept ordering this part number, but they kept sending the wrong part (3 times)!

Consider the issue of the 80's SC's and Carreras with the Turbo rear spoiler. Lot's of clients installed the rear spoiler without adding the front. The problem was on high speed runs or track days the rear would get about a hundred fifty pounds more downforce and the steering would get VERY light and vague. If you are plannning on running it hard either on the street or track you may want to consider a Turbo or GT2/GT3 front clip as well. Just a FYI.

Virtual1 is an unknown quantity at this point
I likewise have been considering this modification. Would you be willing to provide rough cost estimate, including labor? Thanks
