I will update with some photos soon.

Markski...you know me better than that. I always provide sheets.

 

that's for sure... LOL

 

Gotta have show and tell!! I always loved that as a kid!

 

Hoping to have some fun soon!!! A good friend of mine with a protomotive GT 2 and I are going to do some runs... we will be filming this for our great colleques in the 6speedworld!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! who is going to win??? GT 2 with 650 horspower vs TT with GT 700 kit... but whoever comes out on top..... it will be fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Awesome Rob.....I didn't realize that this is your car when we first Imed....lets definately run them...but as you can see from my sig, I only have a smidge less than 600 (not 650).

Any chance we can go in the morning? I guess I will have to finally turn up the boost to keep up with you.

You have more power than :

Scott (divexxtreme)

Previous setup: 580 RWHP/RWTQ - 10.6 @ 136.
New setup: Currently under construction at PROTOMOTIVE.

However, I am still looking forward to hooking up with you... Two Fast Porsches, Texas, Great Highways............ PRICELESS lol

The main problem I am encountering is traction. Even in low boost my tires sometime break loose. I have never had a car w/ this much power. Of course that is where driver skill comes in. I am going to try a high boost run soon (today I am tied up w/ my fiance and her family).

Maybe Stephen can chime in on this question: How long should I run the car before switching to high boost? Can I start up in high boost and just go easy for 10 minutes or so, or should I drive in low boost for a while and then switch over?

Sorry if I sound like a noob, but I have only had this car for four days now.

On another note, I had Hans (a Porsche certified mechanic from the fatherland) look the car over and he said she is in perfect shape....all the aftermarket work and was excellent.

Edit: One other question; I just spoke w/ the former owner of my car (told him about the run plans and asked him about switching to high boost). He informed me that he had (mistakenly) fiddled w/ the high boost control ***. He suggests that I get the car re-tuned (or at least adjusted) before the run. He said that the guy to do it is Sam Shaleighlie (sp?) here in Houston, but he couldn't find his number. Does anyone know this person? I guess I can call S-Car-Go on Monday.

We can run them anytime you would like.. I am just waiting on Stephen to tell me when I can pick her up??? Up for a road trip??

i also have a protomotive car....
if ur worried about High boost setting.... pm me and ill help u set it... its really easy.... Im sure u have a greddy boost controller....
make sure ur on 100+ octane gas before u do high boost runs... otherwise you will hurt the motor eventually.
These two cars will run neck to neck...

Robert

 

Rob, she is Swedish...

it rained yesterday....

 

Why not make a plan and the two of you drive up. Sean I will put your steed on my dyno for free and help you set the boost. We have 100 octane in the shop. You and Rob can then cruise home.

Would be great to meet you anyway and hang out for spell.

 

That will depend on what the car makes. Rob is pushing the limit IMHO and stills needs a damn suspension and roll bar before he kills himself. ONce we look at the numbers we can better judge what is good for the car.

 

Tell me when she will be finished and I walk talk Sean into coming!!!!!!!

 

I will talk with the paint guy Mon and let you know.
