just typed out a whole thing on my phone to describe these pics... and somehow deleted it. I’ll explain when I get to a device other than my phone... anyway it’s good news
Today I was able to install the engine in the car with the bellhousing, clutch, and hydraulics hooked up to the 944 master cylinder. Good news... it worked. Here are the components I used:
- my bellhousing (nineXengineering)
- my pilot bearing adapter (nineXengineering)
- SPEC 02M aluminum flywheel (SV81A)
- SPEC 02M pressure plate
- SPEC 944 Turbo disk (stage 3)
- Solstice GXP hydraulic TOB (24234308)
- Kappadapt Stainless Clutch Fitting adapter to -4AN with 2 o-rings (CHK101-2)
- Jegs 635158, 24” stainless braided Teflon lined hydraulic hose with -4AN ends (one straight, one 90)
- Earl’s AT9919BFEERL, Adapter M12 x 1.0 to -4AN
- Stock Porsche 944 master cylinder
* Note: SPEC clutch and flywheel parts for our kit will be available to purchase on the boost brothers store at lower prices than if you pieced them together from other vendors. Mike will update everyone here once they are up for sale.
Looks like we're ready to make a run of bellhousings! I am working on getting all of the bellhousing parts quoted at a quantity of 20.
*EDIT* I will update here with final pricing after I get all of the piece part quotes and welding/fab estimates. From what I'm seeing so far from vendors, I think it will be very reasonable.
Here's who I have down for a bellhousing (from $100 pre-order deposits). I don't think I'm missing anyone, but obviously if you paid me a deposit and don't see your name here, let me know asap.

That is all great news . Guess I need to finish up the last couple things on this Audi and sell it . Should be hearing something about the intake shortly too .
Did some compressor mapping last night and believe it or not the Garrett GT3071 and GT3076 are too small for 475-500 crank horsepower. The GT3582 actually gets the nod.
I didn’t map the GTX series, but I did map Alan’s G25-660 and it was perfect. Because I’m sticking to a budget build I will be using a Chinese ball bearing GT35, which are around $450 for a “quality” one.
if anyone needs a compressor mapped let me know, I still have all the info.
Check out the Xona rotor line.
EFR71763 is also a great option, albeit long for its size but we should have plenty of space in the engine bay.
From the Iroz website for TTRS/RS3 turbo kits. Power and spool will be slightly different due to exhaust cam VVT and DI, but still provides a good rough sizing table.
Please use this guide as a guide to help meet your expectations or the expectations of your customers. Our pump fuel is USA 91 octane. The expected powerband is listed:
Stock K16 440hp on high octane, 405hp on pump 3000-6500rpm
IMS500(EFR6758) 500 on high octane, 460 3000-6700
IMS575(EFR7163) 575hp on high octane, 525bhp on pump gas. 3400-7000
IMS610(Xona 6156) 610 on high octane, 550hp on pump 3500-7100
IMS650(Xona 6564) 650hp on high octane 575hp on pump 3600-7200
IMS730(Xona 7164) 730hp on high octane 630hp on pump 3800-7400
IMS800(Xona 7864) 800hp on high octane 680hp on pump 4000-7700
IMS850(Xona 8267) 850hp on high octane 710 on pump 4200-7900
IMS1000(Xona 9567) 1000hp on on high octane, 790hp on pump 4800-8700

There’s also an adapter that iAbed is making to let you bolt an RS3 turbofold onto an 07k. And I think Iroz modifies those manifolds to install Xona cartridges.

Hopefully this time there won't be any hackers involved trying to pull any scams on us 😂

I never put a deposit down but will if those other two spots are still open.

Good point, Spencer... only place orders through the boost brothers garage store. Don't paypal anyone who contacts you about these parts, even if it looks like it's coming from me or hinton.
I should have made a separate post ,,,, what is the status on the intake ? Should be about time to see the first test run .
Well, it turns out everything takes long than I thought... casting place is saying still about a month until they get the prototype manifold all done. Then, if there aren't any major tooling changes needed, my guess is 4-6 weeks after that for the production run. I'd figure probably early July before the manifolds are ready to ship. Silver lining... if the prototype manifold fits and is usable, I should be able to get my car up to Performance Electronics for the wire harness development and hopefully get it running and tuned ahead of the production manifolds arriving. Fingers crossed!
