You right Robin,but when you already have the K24 the chepeast way to get power is going to K24/18g's.

Also, what speed/gear did you start at and where did you end up?
I purchased her new so no more warranty. My dealership is flash friendly but there is still a chance you can get burned. That is why I run VP 109 only.

We sart in forst or second, 10MPH or 40MPH.

I would, go with the following in the order I did (In Fact I have personally done them all and am more than pleased). I personally am not a believer in very radical mods on a street car that would over stress the clutch, so I consider my mods modest but mandatory to get that little bit extra from what is already a great car.

1) Exhaust & < 300 cell CATS (I put 200s on mine)
2) Hi Flow SS Headers
2) Upgraded Forged Alloy DVs
3) 1 bar Actuators set to 13psi
4) Softronic 1.2 - 1.3 bar X50 Self applied Flash (Peaks at 1.4 on a good day )
5) Dual Snorkel Air Intakes (Using Stock Paper filter)
6) Modestly programmed H20/Meth Injection (50:50 mix)

I am more than happy with these mods, gives my "Seat of the Pants" Dyno a run. and When I turn it on, it does a lot for me in return. you can check out my web site "IMPConceptsDOTcom/porscheturbos.htm" for install instructons for most of these modes.

My stock clutch is holding up very well. ow, I DO NOT track or race my car, Except on the street with the odd BMW M6, Z06 etc. owners who "Think" that they have fast cars.

Robert, who did you Revo Flash? I do like your simple upgrade with very positive winning results! Just curious do you use Newport Auto Center for your service? It appears you are local here in orange county, ca. you stated that the dealer is flash friendly? I do know the guys from service and i only have Aron work on my car. He's the top mechanic at the dealership.

This car has the K24's?
The 05 TURBO S is just stupid fast STOCK. I have seen this first hand at the track. Add a flash and exhaust and not much will touch you. I'm going with the MARKSKI set up.

Good luck!

Mark at Hergenheimer installed my Revo flash and yes, I go to Newport Beach Porsche for service. I was just there today getting oil changing parts and an air filter. I live in Irvine. Have you done any mods yet? If not, come by my house and I will take you for a ride.

Wow, small world, Hergenheimer is just down the street from me. i'm in Foothill Ranch. That's good to know that our dealership is flash friendlly! i'll inquire about that later. I'll PM you for a meeting. Also, the car is stock, but insanely quick! i've taken on bmw M-5 & corvettes and been successful! i can only imagine how montrous your car is after seeing your videos!
