My new business venture is really cash flowing now and I want more power. I've considered changing platforms to the gallardo with the heffner tt kit, however I just can't seem to sell out my Porsche faith. Porsche has a great racing pedigree that I can't turn my back on it. Who can help steer me in the right direction to achieve 800+awhp and trap 140mph? Cost factors and down time are key. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!!

You're less than 4 hours from Switzer Innovation....give Tym a call and plan a visit to meet him and review your options.

I just called you 3 days ago about some bigger turbos, and you told me that you weren't going to be spending money on the car anytime soon!!! You crack me up. I now have 3 sets of turbos, so call me if you want any of them.

No matter what anyone tells you... your at least 3 to 6 months away from a 850 RWHP.... it needs not just the bottom end but also headwork including doing O rings...... and all this takes time....
You can get away doing just the bottom end and stay at 750 rwhp for a lot cheaper.... and the time factor decreases a lot.
good luck,
markski

What kind of setting you are referring to? Is that including fuel and intake system? K24/20gs or GT turbo? No need for any kind of engine work? I am curious about that. Thanks!

Am I missing something?

Indykid - Your first post says you're rolling in money, you're thinking about a Gallardo, and you want 800+awhp. Then you say cost is a factor. In your later message you say you don't have money for 650hp. What are you looking for?

I'm pretty sure that means he doesn't want 620 hp. He wants 800+. If you had the money, why not buy a Gallardo with Heffner TT'S and keep the Porsche?

Yup, Marksi lets talk turbos! Who's got a quicker spooling 750Whp kit?

indykid, considering you are using my old turbos, you should be very happy w/ a GT700 kit. it spools up faster than your current turbos, hits a lot harder, and has a lot more top-end.

since it's "off the shelf", you could probably get it done in 3-4 weeks (while going inside the motor too.)

I would call all the tuners and pick their brains .Find out when it can be done because time is a factor and plan for setbacks with any tuner.With that said give Mike @ Evoms a call,they now have a GT900R that runs a gt35r ,spins 8000rpm and is tuned in house by Todd Z.It does require you to deliver the car there as there is alot of custom fab work involved,but the end result is killer!
