If you add all those up we include higher quality parts, more of them, and still beat our competitors in that power range. The competition usually requires a core exchange for your factory turbo which is a loss of $2000-$2500 in your pocket. We do not. Most people at this level already have an exhaust, flat panel or intake, diverter valves etc. So that is why they are additional add ons.

Yes we can sell you the Components only. Contact me via phone for pricing.

Buddy - Glad it worked for you! Call me sometime.

Thank you!
I too would like to pickup some of these headers!

That is quite a novel idea making new oil sumps and an adapter between the Garrett turbine flange to the stock style exhaust. Great job.

Rob and Roadster, thanks for the comments. I will do whatever it takes to get this kit and my other components on cars. I want the Porsche world to see the new reign moving in

BTW I did not get to say anything before, but Sam at the Speed Gallery helped me with alot of technical info. Same with Todd at Proto, thanks for the input and feedback to all.

Any plans to incorporate a bigger MAf?

Illm3 - thanks brother! I dont know the exact time. I went off the video when I said 50mph and then screamed like a girl at 130mph. That was 9 seconds. I rolled into at 3rd gear and hammered. Not sure if that is right, fast, or whatever, but it was fun!

Markski - I can probably accomondate you for all your help. The AFI/AP cans are a piece of art thanks to the AFI master designers. Bigger MAF tube, makes sense, and since we run our own intakes, it is an easy thing to quickly make and test. Maybe soon

Like I said before, I want everyone running AP products, let me know what it takes

My car is at two day track events every month and sometimes every weekend.
I will be running at DAYTONA first week of December, Sebring mid December, PBOC Winterfest four day event Sebring in January, and the 48 hour PCA Largest Club race in the country in Feburary.

The car will be running the NASA Time Trial series at Homestead, Moroso, Roebling, and Sebring.

And have over 4,000 996TT posts.

I have a brand new GT2 engine, straight pipes, LWFW, billet diverters, and silicone boost hoses already.

How much do you want people to know and really see how this set up does??

If I run it everyone will know EVERYTHING!!! Good and Bad. I am very honest and very critical.

The thing I need most is reliable horsepower, do you got the guts???

I think I would qualify as a promo but you have to convince me my engine will last at least 20k track miles??

Fair request. Except for the last line: "I think I would qualify as a promo but you have to convince me my engine will last at least 20k track miles??"

Tom, how did you new engine saga play out? Did you ever narrow down the cause?

the parts would not be your problem, tuning and fuel would be your problem if the engine would go... but, with a safe tune, adequate fuel, proper boost, your car will run long and strong. Do you have the guts

No sh*t. Somebody come up with a better design for the line fittings please! Just breaking free that damn fitting can make the line itself slightly eccentric so the fitting becomes tight and won't spin freely. So trying to avoid crossthreading aluminum into aluminum during the reinstallation is very tricky (and that is a huge understatement- I thought I was going to go insane). A threaded steel insert in the sump would work but that would drive up the cost. Maybe a helicoil?
