Wondering if a "flip-out" Turbo rear spoiler can be fitted in place of the Panamera or Panamera S rear spoiler?

Looks like it takes up the same folded space, so should just be a simple purchase of a Turbo spoiler, with mechanism, which should slot into same area.

Interesting question, guess there aren't too many owners on here yet.

 

hopefully a tuner will come out with a tasteful rear wing.

 

I found out in China they have worked out a way to retrofit a turbo spoiler on the lower models, costs below US$3000, and since they modified the mechanism of the oem turbo spoiler, the installation doesn't require a reprogramming, here is a link to the video (notice it's a Panamer 4):

FYI. I ain't the shop, I'm also looking into the possibility of this and planning on driving to a shop also provides this and located closer down south near Hong Kong.

 

hey wnshie, its nice to see someone from HK on 6speedonline, I own a P4S in HK too and is also looking for the turbo spoiler retrofit. However as far as I know, there aren't any yet.

 

search the forum, i read a post earlier this year one guy in Europe did it and it was pain in the butt because of the programing issue, maybe the video above found solution to this but for the cost and time needed, i dont think its worth it.... i say get the TechArt Grand GT Spoiler, that thing is sick!!

 

diss23, hi there! No, it's not avail in HK, it's from China, I got in contact with the shop, he claims it's merely a plug n play, I am now discussing with him the details regarding delivery.

 

I will be interested if they can ship to USA?

 

any update on this?

 

Any update about the turbo spoiler? I really doubt its merely plug and play, i remember there is one 4s owner in this forum said the car needs to program as "turbo"... but i am very interest to know the result, perhaps if you are doing the retofit of the turbo spoiler in HK, I am very interest to do this together.

Btw, what wheel do you use?

 

I am kinda busy with my own business right now, after the Moon Festival, I will move on with this project. diss23, sure, as a fellow HK, I will let you know first hand .

Regarding the reprogramming of the Panny, I asked the person in charge in details over quite a few emails back and forth, he promised as a fact that:

1) it will work and his company will stand by it and they have done quite a few Pannies since 2009
2) he assured me NO reprogramming is required on the Panny, and I can be there to make sure of it
3) they WON'T send the modified Turbo Spoiler out directly, they would only send the oem unmodified Turbo Spoiler out even if I am willing to pay the difference
4) the installation takes roughly 2-3 hours of dissembling and reassembling time

so, the only thing he didn't reveal to me was how they mod the OEM Turbo Spoiler, since they obviously treat it like some business secrets...

I will keep you posted.

 

THanks for the information

so the "trick" is to mod the spoiler to do the flip out action, instead of reprogramming the car, just plug and play, it sounds very strict forward.

The person you are dealing with, where is his shop locate in China? Shengzhen or Gongzhou? Do you think it is possible to ask their technican to come to Hong Kong for a day with their modified turbo spoilers and installed on our cars together. We can share all the extra expenses.

I went to your album saw you have diff exhaust, is that the ksg or ak?

 

really interested in this..... any updates?
