I just got a 2010 GT3 MkII with 2234kms. on it. The previous owner ordered a Group N carbon intake for the car and is offering it to me. Has anyone installed this to their car? Any performance gain with this other than the sound?

 

Gruppe M intake are very pretty. They are hand made in Japan.

Don't expect much power gain if any (maybe 3-5 HP). I don't think any aftermarket intake gives reliable HP gain, despite of various claims that include dyno sheets.

The main advantage will be aethetics and more aggressive sound.

 

Any pics or a web site to take a look at the intake?

1. Congratulations on the GT3
2. Congratulations on being Filipino, and being from Manila
3. I read about incremental hp gains as well, but mainly it is for aesthetics, so I would suggest getting it if the looks are worth the cost.

 

It costs 2700.00USD. landed here in Manila. I will borrow it and post some pictures of it. Hopefully your feedback will help me to decide if it is worth its price. I don't feel comfortable changing/tuning something that ain't broken/inferior. But if its worth the difference in sound and performance then I'll probably get it.

I'm already in love with how the GT3 currently sounds.

 

Hi RJ. Are you Pinoy too? I saw the pictures of your GT3 RS with red leather stitching. Awesome stable of cars! I noticed the picture of your Dad and my first impression was that he must be Filipino.

 

Welcome to the TEAM! Post some pics when you can

 

They sounds great and the weave is top notch. If that is what you are looking for it won't disappoint. It is not meant to add significant HP.

 

I indeed am, thanks for the compliment on the cars! Although the M3 and the RS are mine, and the other cars belong to my parents/2 brothers/sister. Last time I went to the Philippines was in 2007; good news is I will be back (in manila, and eventually El Nido island) in april for my sister's wedding.

Good luck with your car, and like DJ said, we'd love to see some pics of the gt3! Salamat

 

here is what the intake looks like.

This should sell for $1300-1500 USD used, 2700 is more than msrp on the website.
