Can one modify a Turbo to Rev higher than 6,500 rpm ?

 

well yes of course

 

You don't need to, yours (OEM) already revs up to 6750 anyway! Most stage 1,2,3 are tweaked to rev up to 7000.

 

need internal upgrades and mods check out the revs on a new GT3 and you get the idea

 

how you can modify a Turbo to Rev higher than 6,500 rpm ?
internal mods?
Forget it.
Next time i will buy something else ,maybe a M5

 

No, a software flash (7k) , if higher than that, yes internal mods!

 

I personally know of one tuner who goes up to 7500 rmps on his tuning kits and thats on a stock motor.
I went with GT3 RS heads so I can go 9K rpms. here is what they look like:

 

^^Sick!!! Damn!!!

 

markski, any sound files floating around w/ a porsche revving that high? i would like to hear what that sounds like.

I do not have any but it's being tuned this week... Alex's is over 8K rmps but I dont think he has any sound clips...

 

Mark, I can't wait to see your car in person! It's gonna be one badass ride

Until just recently, increased rev limiters were only available for 6speeds. Now, both EVOMS and Protomotive can increase the rev limiter on Tips. Mine is North of 7k (the final number will be set on Monday).

very very soon.. then Im off to great lakes drag way....

 

There is far more involved than just the heads. The heads provide the required breathing. You also need the cams, tappets, cam holders etc.

I have seen stock turbo motor's taken to 7500 rpm's. However, you are shortening the motor life considerabily. Using the right rods, pistons, heads, cams and tappets will alow the motors to safely rev to 8700 plus.

 

Are you a boring guy that needs to brag about his engine redline?
