  • The OCParts carbon rear window air intake pulls ambient air from both factory green tint acrylic rear side windows and routes it through a single center opening to the engine bay. The air path uses CNC’d aluminum joints with interior wire mesh to prevent debris entry. The system draws from both sides simultaneously, giving a meaningful volume increase in cool air supply to the engine.

    This is v2 of the intake. The v2 has been reengineered for easier installation with more side to side adjustment when sliding the pre-assembled windows with bezels into place. The kit can be installed in aesthetic configuration without cutting the metal parcel shelf. For full functional airflow – air actually reaching the engine bay – a hole must be cut in the rear metal parcel shelf using the supplied cut template. The carbon air tube is then secured from below using the thread inserts embedded in the base of the carbon outlet. This is a one-time operation clearly described in the downloadable installation guide.

    The factory green tint acrylic rear side windows are supplied with the kit. They replace the OEM rear side windows and integrate with the intake housing. The intake housing is a single carbon fiber tube that spans the full rear shelf width.

    This is one of the most visually distinctive parts in the OCParts catalogue. On a properly built 964 or 993 backdate, the intake announces the level of the build before the engine is started.

    Installation notes
    Step 1: Remove OEM rear side windows, and remove upholstery and audio speakers from rear parcel shelf so metal is visible.

    Step 2: Fit one of the acrylic windows supplied with the kit.

    Step 3: Mount the carbon intake housing to the rear shelf.

    Step 4 (for full function): cut the rear metal parcel shelf using the supplied template and drill indicated holes in shelf. Use the supplied alignment template. The installation guide covers every step with photos. If in doubt on the shelf cut, have a professional bodyshop do this step.

    Step 5: Loose install second rear side window and ensure carbon tube clearance of C-pilars on each side.

    Step 6: Securely install both windows in window frame ensure tube is aligned inside each aluminum bezel, and tack bezels to carbon tube to ensure air cannot escape.
    Step 7: Secure carbon air tube in place from below with screws from the engine bay.

    Note: It is a good idea to plan out and install any finishing steps/upholstery for the metal parcel shelf prior to permanently securing the carbon to the bezels and the parcel shelf.

FAQ

Questions about

  • Cutting the metal rear parcel shelf is optional and only required if air from the rear side windows is desired to flow into the engine bay. This is one of the v2 enhancements over the original design. However, in this aesthetic-only configuration, air does not actually flow to the engine bay. For the intake to be functional, a hole must be cut in the rear metal parcel shelf using the supplied cut and drillhole template. The cut is clean, uses a supplied template, and is covered in detail in the installation guide. If you are unsure, have a professional handle the shelf cut step.

  • Carbon fiber tube, CNC'd aluminum joints, pre-installed wire debris mesh, factory green tint acrylic rear side windows, cut template, and installation guide.

  • No. The intake is designed for the Coupe rear shelf structure and C-pilar geometry. Cabriolet and Targa models do not share the same geometries as the Coupe.

  • Yes. The shelf cut is a one-time modification to the rear metal parcel shelf. Once cut, it cannot be undone without mending the parcel shelf. Consider this before ordering if you may return the car to OEM specification.
