Fantastic project - love the rear "aspect".
Please keep us informed of all the details, I am particularly intrigued with how your CTR style intercoolers perform

PoorBoy,
I have another question... strictly out of my ignorance... I see those two small exhaust pipes, and assume they are for the blow-off valves or wastegates. I see that most race cars have that sort of setup, but the stock 993TT does not. I believe the diverter valves "recirculate" the excess pressure. I have no idea where the waste gate exhaust goes. Can you educate me? Thnaks.

wastegate exhaust. In the TT the wastegate is integrated with the turbo so it's exhaust ends up where the rest of the exhaust does. a separate wastegate can either dump back into the exhaust or simply blow out on it's own. Look at a 930 next time you have a chance. they have this setup, as well as the 964 turbos. I had a stright dump pipe on my 930 wastegate. pretty cool. Flames and loud noises came out of there : )

Wow!
Incredible...I love the purposeful look, especially the exhaust through the bumper and the cutaway revealing just enough of the tasty mechanical bits underneath--it's like a tease. And although I usually don't like unpainted carbon fiber, but you've done it very tastefully. Awesome job all around.
Hopefully it sounds as nasty as it looks. Do you have cats in the exhaust?
I would love to see more pictures with the bumper off...particuarly interested in how you're getting high pressure to the front of the intercoolers. More details please!

From the look of those 4 huge BOVs and water cooled TBs I think you may be right.
