TB993tt

I was commenting to one of the owners of RS Tuning in Germany how I easily out accelerated a friend's CGT in my tuned 993tt and (sniffing a potential customer) he said he would send me details of their engine tuning which would redress the anomaly.
He assured me these kits would put the CGT completely out of reach.

This is obviously a bit impractical (but not impossible) for owners in the US but quite fascinating.
Apparently with the 6.0 litre kit when they check the block they have found that there can be flaws which neccessitate a new block @ 40K Euro which has to be explained to the customer before they commence work.
BTW as of next week 0.6% of total production of CGTs will be running with one of the above RS engine conversions !

That's interesting... it still wouldn't beat a Ferrari F40 LM though

690 kit seems more logical (if you can use logic when
addressing this car ?)

TB take a swipe at that modded CGT and let us know the results.

I almost snorted Diet Pepsi through my nose when I read about the lowering kit.

I laughed when I read that too knowing what my buddy went thru to just be able to get his
CGT into his new garage !!! Heck it is alread a great mice killer at standard height...

the roads in Germany are particularly smooth where RS are based

I almost choked on a perfectly good glass of Clos de Vougeot

Les Quam

Clos De what? What the hell is that?????

Doesn't sound like something Steve McQueen would be drinking??? Can you imagine in the Movie Le Mans the team owner comes up to McQueen and says "get in the car we need you!" And Steve says just as soon as I finish my Clos De Vought..... I don't think so????

Anyway the CGT is a true slug and needs a lot more HP and sits to way too high which is probably why Jay Leno spun it out on the straightaway. Glad to see that finally a tuner is going to solve these glaring problems found on stock CGTs.

Mike,
That is why every botle of burgundy should come with computerized anti-choking assist devices. We don't want to lose you secondary to aspiration of fermented grapes, no matter how old the vines. All Chambertins come with such aids. AS

Bob Rouleau

Alex! You are inciting Nick. Next thing you know, Chateau Margaux will be accused of negligence for not supplying computerized anti choking devices.

Seriously expensive I am guessing! Anyone have the pricing?

LOL.

Something like... if you have to ask,...

More importantly, have their power claims been verified at all?
