They said it's all in the process of printing it correctly. You need to slow bake the carbon for 4 hours to get the moisture out and print it at the right temp and let it slow cure at 120c for 4 hours after.

There are carbons out there that can take 150c temps and I'd try putting the stock stacks in an oven at 300 degrees to see if they start melting.
We consulted an Aerospace engineer that specializes in 3d printed materials, It can withstand high heat, but That internal location is not the correct application. There is a coating procedure you can do to make it withstand it.

Well if you guys are stopping development I can buy the file off you if you already have it scanned. The people I talked said it will hold no problem.

Here is there printer.

So to fix the map sensor P0106 error I bought a map sensor relocate and a in line strainer and I haven’t had any issues in a few months. I also upgraded to the Delphi Map sensor.
The theory was that the air wasn’t smooth. So I tried this to smooth out the air lol.

About the Porsche throttles

Originally Posted by Conv_GSDriver
Gentlemen, sorry to revive such an old thread but this one is the first one that came on my search and seems close to my issue. I recently purchased a used 2011 C63 (less than two months ago). I bought it from a dealer in Georgia but the car was originally purchased and titled in New York. I do not know who the previous owner was.


the first thing I noticed was that the car had the full akrapovic exhaust on it. I suspected the car had other mods, but nothing I could tell. This is my first time owning a C63 so I cannot compare to others to know how different this one is. Recently (last week) I got a CEL and after dealer diagnosing, seemed to be the throttle cable assembly. Well today I found out, the car has larger throttle bodies installed. They look identical to the OEM one except the bigger orifice of the body, seems to be around 8-10mm bigger at a visual inspection. The part number is the one used on the Porsche 997, part number 997 605 116 01 and references to Bosch part number 0 280 750 473. The OEM TB part number is AMG A 156 141 02 25 and references to Bosch part number 0 280 750 246. Only one failed, the motor inside of it so I am purchasing the replacement aftermarket TB to keep the current setup.


Question is, without knowing the previous owner and what he/she did to the car, I am trying to do some investigative work to find out who may have done the work. Both Kleemann and Renntech are closed and will have to wait until Monday. Maybe someone here has knowledge of the use of these Porsche parts on our cars as to who does that type of modification. I know for sure it has a custom tune now based on the items found on the car so far. Thank you.
Hope everything is ok,
Sorry to bother but came across this and a question popped up.. The throttle plate is oem? Or custom made to fit them?
thanks and take care.

I don't believe it was OEM. Believe me - I tried with the OEM plate but too many modifications would have been needed and because it's not made of aluminium or steel, you can't chop/weld it, so the only alternative would be to make a giant mess with a huge ton of epoxy. Not ideal.

did it work? i'm pretty sure the P0106 error is from the increased airflow being out of range of what is in defined mappings for the MAP sensor.

I still haven’t had any issues.

saw another thread with an interesting idea. With multiple check valves, but haven’t had the time to try it.
