How much do the APR Intercooler Ducts for 992 lower intake temperature?

In APR testing the APR Intercooler Ducts for 992 cut intake air temperature by 9.6 C, or 17.3 F, which is 15 percent. Over ten averaged full throttle runs, temperature fell from 66.2 C with stock ducts to 56.6 C, below the factory knock threshold of 60 C.

Why did APR test the 992 ducts on the road and not a dyno?

A rear engine car moves air through its cooling ducts differently on the road than on a stationary dyno, even with strong fans. APR tested on the street to capture real cooling data, running ten back to back full throttle runs of about 11 seconds with each set of ducts.

Do the APR 911 intercooler ducts fit the GTS?

APR notes that fitment excludes the Porsche Design rear bumper, which is standard on the GTS and optional on other 992 models. If your car has that bumper, these ducts will not fit. All other listed 992 3.0T cars with the standard rear bumper are covered.

Do the APR 992 Carrera ducts need extra hardware?

No. The carbon fiber ducts slide into place with no extra hardware and connect to the rest of the factory ducting, including the post intercooler housing ducting. APR supplies installation instructions, and the ducts sit out of view once the rear bumper is back on.

Are the APR 992 intercooler ducts worth fitting on a stock car?

Yes. APR recommends them at any stage of performance. Stock ducts let intake temperature climb above the knock threshold in a hard run, so lower temperatures help the engine hold its power, and the benefit grows with a tune that raises boost and heat.

Description

APR Carbon Fiber Intercooler Ducts for 992 911 3.0T

The APR Carbon Fiber Intercooler Ducts for 992 911 3.0T models force more high pressure ambient air through the intercooler cores in the tail of the car. In APR testing they cut intake air temperature by 15 percent, keeping it below the knock threshold and away from the point where the ECU begins to reduce power. They slide into place with no extra hardware and connect to the rest of the factory ducting.

How APR Tested Them

A rear engine car cools differently on the road than on a dyno, so APR instrumented the engine and ran ten back to back full throttle runs of about 11 seconds with each set of ducts, averaging the results. With stock ducts, intake air temperature rose to 66.2 C (151.2 F), above the 60 C (140 F) knock threshold. With the APR ducts it levelled off at 56.6 C (133.9 F), a drop of 9.6 C (17.3 F).

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
