This isn't the real GT2 section....no one on here cares about turbos! Move it back to where it belongs or I'll paint all your carbon fiber!!!

Jamie, tell Todd hurry up get your car done so he can start working on mine.
Peter, not fair to run a built Supra against bolt on GT2. However it would be fun to see you two do a 60-130mph runs and a several of laps of road racing. Daniel and I never got a chance to do some runs back when he had the car.

Just thought I'd poke in here and wish you luck with your GT2 Jamie, and your other projects for that matter. Even if it's, like you said, not the fastest car on the highway, I think the Porsche offers a lot of other benefits that one can appreciate besides ultimate power.
Look forward to reading about your progress.

He said he couldn't get on the dyno until 3pm! But yea, looks like he pulled more power and torque on a baseline pump run at 1.1bar than the UMW 3a race 1.3bar dyno posted earlier. We don't have a full run yet, but looks promising. Competition is healthy....

If you don't mind me asking, does the car now have a full custom exhaust a la Markski, or were the cats cut out and pipes from the turbos to the preexisting muffler welded in? I can't tell from the pics. Thanks!

Nope, just an off the shelf Cargraphic with the cats removed. Todd wanted to use a free flowing exhaust, but I had to put a stop to the bleeding at some point

Vincent, NOT QUITE accurate. A built motor helps NONE as far as power... The car has stock intake manifold and a bolt on turbo kit and bolt on fuel upgrades. In any event, it will be all in fun, Jamie is a friend of mine and this is all for fun!
