Porsche 996
GruppeM RAM AIR SYSTEMS epitomize the GruppeM philosophy of attention to detail. By replacing the factory air handling systems, increased airflow streams into the combustion chamber. On the GruppeM intake for the Porsche Carrera 4S (996, 2002-2005), the factory ductwork is replaced with heat-shielding carbon fiber with enhanced inlets to capture the maximum amount of air. Lower intake air temperatures carry higher concentrations of oxygen, allowing for more energetic explosions and producing more horsepower and torque. Of course, reliability is never sacrificed — high-efficiency, high-flow K&N air filter materials prevent contaminants from interfering with proper engine function.
Each GruppeM aerodynamic component is hand made from the highest grade carbon fiber and Kevlar composites. Aerodynamic elements can not only be visually appealing but also improve performance. With more downforce the tires will have more grip through the corners, as well as under braking. Additionally, our components are lighter than their stock counterparts, so overall power-to-weight ratio is improved as well.
Every GruppeM AEROdynamic component is designed to match the make and model for each application, maximizing downforce, increasing road surface traction, and providing outstanding stability during high speed driving and braking. Additional benefits include improved cooling effects and intake efficiency by aggressively guiding external airflow. This is the quality that has been achieved only by pursuing the ultimate level of aerodynamic efficiency.
GruppeM, formed in 1996 and based in Japan, develops high performance products including carbon fiber air induction systems, titanium exhaust systems, stainless-steel brake line systems, and aerodynamic parts. GruppeM performance parts have been featured in numerous international automotive magazines, project cars, racing cars, and is regarded as the premiere aftermarket choice for air induction systems and high performance exhaust systems.
