Looks like you already needed to sell the right one to get the parts list you have!

"What do I need?" Well.. the better question is "What do you want?" 400hp is a nice goal but with the other mods you have listed, HP is not your only goal. Let us know what you are going for and we can give you some tips.

thankx perry. I want a very well rounded car. I am not use to losing to any EVOs or STIs on the street, basically I want big *****, a car that can stop on a dime, and turn on rails. BUT I cant buy 5k coilovers, nor pay 100k for a gt3. so what do you guys think?

thankx chris

www.paragon-products.com

Look for ground control coil overs and Koni Yellows.. that will be about the next best thing to full coil overs.

sounds like your on your way to 400rwhp but you'll most definatly need a bigger turbo, injectors, maf.

Contact rennlist member edman951, he has a GT30R (or was that a 35R?) installed. He could help you out with places to get them from, and the accessories needed to make them fit (custom oil lines/fittings).

i wouldn't skimp when it comes to tires...these are what makes or breaks ur suspension and braking...and seeing that you have high goals, r-compound tires seem like the right choice

Has custom made GT30R's (and 35R) with KKK hotside to bolt directly to our cars. They even have the moddified oil lines and will fit under thet stock intake without grinding.

Wes: The GT turbo that Edman used/uses is a full garrett, both cold and hot sidez. The bolt pattern for some Garretts are the same for the 3Ks, Edman951 even mentioned that it bolted on, but he also had a 3" downpipe (which should not matter in bolt differences at all). It is the oil feed/return that should be focused and modified.

Recently, ATP offered the 3K hotside, but you still need to fab up the oil routing.

Cool

Chris do your self a favor, do not add up your receipts after buying all of the goodies. It is scarry how many 951s are running around with 30-50k wrapped up in them including purchase price cheap compared to a slower 911!

Including purchase price Hosram! My first 951 was purchased for 12k and in 4 years of ownership
I had over 20k in reciepts including service and upgrades. Total investment over 32k.
If chris paid in the 10-15k range for a clean 951 plus the upgrades he has listed, the upgrades alone are going to be in the 10-15k range, he even listed paint, If that means a full paint job he is looking at 5k for a good job.
Chris will immediately have a 30k plus car.
I am afraid to total what I have into my car now!

Mercedes: I thought you were referring to just the prices for perfomance upgrades, not the "whole bill"


Quick Reply: so, how am I doing so far..............
