The difference between 93 and 100, like Adam said, is utterly unbelievable. with 100, the wheels break loose every time you "mash the loud pedal." Granted, it is from the ability to run more boost....but it also shows me know what a relatively "small" increase in boost does for hp and tq. On 93 I am at 1.1 bar and with 100 I am usually at 1.27 max and the difference is HUGE.

And the best thing is that the gas station with 100 is only2 miles from my house and it is $6.50/gal!!!

Todd, Kevin, Tony, Scott.....thanks for putting smiles on our faces guys!!!!!!

I just noticed the beautiful color your car has, can you show a big pic?

I hope Erik doesn't mind we are hi-jacking his thread... the color is odd for TT but more common on other Porsche models.

Hey Donny,
Lunch sounds good. I'm in the San Ramon/Danville area and off every other Friday (not tomorrow, off next Friday).

sorry for the hijack, but that is one of the best colors I have seen on these cars. Awesome, thanks for the pics. I am going to copy to the HD if you do not mind.

I don't mind at all that the thread got hi-jacked. The new topic is probably more interesting anyway.

Donny, you should meet us at EuroSundays! And let's see some pics of your TTS!
