New owner lets talk mods
Hi, I have my other post about my question about repairs and minor kink about the car but lets talk mods.
I seen many videos on YouTube Gemballa, TechArt such and such on 955 957 cayenne.
Please share not here to stir **it up but searching for input to share for someone that have done so for someone that want to do so.
Custom exhaust, custom intake Custom turbos perhaps. I would like to hear everyone takes and experiences on these mods. Which ECU tuning upgrade did you choose and why how was it after the tuning sessions?
The fellow forum member here aimed for 680hp and I envy that. That post inspire me to build up my car.
Anyone went crazy and do front mount intercooler to the cayenne? Since the intercoolers kit is amazingly expensive. I know right??I'm complaining but this is a Porsche. LOL. How about BOV's? Don't mean to sound like a kid but have you ever wonder what it would be like with a pair of BOV's. My wife mini cooper s have it LOL. it's a fun factor.

I'd do this:
- all the regular service thingies (coils, plugs, all oils - including trany and diffs, cardan shaft, coolant pipes... change everything)
- custom exhaust (including downpipes, preferably w/o cats)
- upgraded intake (at least IPD plenum + BMC air filters or EVOMS intake)
- BOVs (APR R1 w/ blue springs)
- if you have a turbo (not a turbo S), upgrade the ICs as well
- upgraded turbos (Scrollproducts )
- custom remap
or the short, but more expensive version: go to evoms.com and find a complete kit.
that shlould be good for solid 650 - 680 hp. if you push boost, maybe even more. optionally, you can also upgrade the fuel pump & injectors, but they are good till about 680hp.

Grassroots Motorsports just wrote up water/alcohol spraying into the inter cooler. They say its a great bang for the buck and simple install. Any of you guys doing this?

I don't plan to make a drag car out of the cayenne just a bad *** street car that more responsive, sound mean, and just cut loose every now and then. Doing 150+ on the highway and drive back home like you just went for groceries. That kind of deal. Guys I don't plan to go all out and make a super cayenne. I'm just an enthusiast. My money don't grow on trees I will try to make the upgrade gradually to my car.
lupo.sk i read your post. Amazing write up. Like that gemballa like plenum system you got on. I sent that pictures to my mechanic who will likely try to copy it. It just look really nice. lupo.sk were you around when they took out your turbos? I wonder if they simply remove your turbos out and sent them to be modified or they have to remove the engine to get to the turbos.
First step I had made for my car was order up a custom exhaust to be fab up and will post once I return to the shop who's handling it for me. 2 k&n filters. I'm considering FVD ecu tuning it seem to fit what i want to do with the car. My next up on the list are the two turbos and a nice of intercoolers.
I attached a photo from this guy on renntech i think who done it on his cayenne. Love the setup. Look amazing as heck.
