IPD (Innovative Pro Design) was founded in 2004 by Mike “Turbo” Kirakosyan. The IPD Plenums are all designed, tested and manufactured in Southern California – the heart of the Porsche tuning capital. Their plenums and thermal blankets are the best performance upgrade for Porsche. Aside from quality products that hold a great warranty, IPD has the best dyno proven bolt-on power in the industry.
IPD Porsche Plenums: The revolutionary and patented design of IPD’s Plenums improve intake air flow by replacing the factory plastic “T”-style design with a more efficient, cast aluminum “Y” design. These plenums distribute the air flow more effectively by using a true merge collector and reducing pressure drop at the throttle body inlet. This innovative “Y” diversion area splits and channels intake air flow reducing air flow turbulence and increasing air flow velocity. This superior and proven design ultimately results in better power gains throughout the horsepower and torque curves.
IPD Performance Thermal Blankets: The new IPD Thermal Performance Blankets (TPB) are specifically manufactured to increase power and boost response by insulating and containing critical exhaust energy that expedites exhaust flow through the headers and turbos. Thermal blankets are designed to contain heat inside the exhaust system, where it is most effective without exceeding critical EGT thresholds. Wrapping the headers and turbine hot housings decreases convective heat transfer from underbody air, which is crucial for your vehicle’s performance.
