Where do you order from Cargraphic or RUF? Will the be preferable to those from Patrick Motorsports?

Thanks!

Dang it, you're setting yourself to be able to tell me "I told you so!" I truly get the impression that this is not pushing the engine that hard. Am I mistaken?

How many miles did you have on your 993 TT when your did the upgrade? How many do you have on it now? Any issues? Stalling or problems?

Yes a remap of the ECU, a little more complicated, and I did not add an additional oil cooler at this point.

You must set boost on Dyno in order to Tune right & check AFR's.
Todd did not mention a manual boost controller. Where do you place the manual boost controller? Once the boost is set ii it meant to be left alone or played with depending on how you are driving?

Does the 993 TT have a viscous coupler too? How do I find a Dyno shop that can work with the viscous coupler? When you say must set boost on a dyno, I have not been able to find a dyno in Denver that can work with AWD 911. I had a 997.1 before and the viscous couple was the reason that I could net get the car dynoed.

Is your 470HP number at the crank or at the wheel? Also Todd said I would get 60 to 80 HP increase from the ECO plus 50 HP from the turbos or a total increase of 110 to 130HP from 408, going to a range of 518 to 538HP. Your 470 is much lower than he has stated, but given you have done 5 so far, I suspect you have it pretty hard wired.

Did you convert your turbos? If so what do you think you gained in HP?

That's right. At 1.2 bar, 100oct gas with the 16/16G hybrids that's not an unrealistic number. Rare911 has done that and has the dyno graphs to prove it. At .9bar on 91oct at 5600ft where you are it's not going to make that much. But it should still be 100 more fwhp than what you have today and that difference is all that matters.

You can dyno our cars on a Mustang Dynometer(its a Brand of dyno) safely. Or you can unhook the front wheel drive...it's about 30-60mins worth of work. I've not done it myself but that's what I was told. Then you just hook it back up when you done.

40k miles, now 48k miles

Protomotive 16g package with Greedy electronic boost controller works very well.
My Boost settings = stock 0.8 / 0.9 and 1.1 barg, it will lift your skirt!
Boost controller is hidden and accessible in ashtray, really slick
Just be sure to have the kit installed by an experienced shop!!!

Oil cooler only needed if you plan to track or use hard in very hot ambients
I also installed RS sways and PSS10's.
Techart fogs with active brake cooling ducts and Turbo S frt spoiler

car has now 40k miles since then and run great, maybe with turbolag, but here on the Autobahn you can feel the difference
maybe is not the Money worth but they are rare and sought after
While I'm not expert at P-cars, I agree with this ^^

Mine is a RoW spec and came from factory with X50 430 HP package with a bunch of Turbo S goodies.

Later I found my car had from the begining of it's life in it's final desination (country) the 450 HP kit offered by Porsche (k24's Turbo S RoW ecu and oil cooler was factory installed/ordered).

Never driven another 993tt specially with the K16 turbos, but mine feels laggy, once the boost comes, you get a punch in your chest against the seats.
