Emre @ Esmotor offers the strongest upgrade package. As far as I know Esmotor supplies other tuners.

Check with Yousuf and other Middle East 997 TT owners who run Esmotor Emre's tiptronic upgrade kit. Perone from Italy, Andrey from Russia got Esmotor's kit.

Didnt want to post prices and upset some tuners, but Renntech was a GREAT help and had rebuilt my tran for $3,800. To remove the trans from the motor you have to drop the motor, so it is kinda costly in the labor. Freight shipping was another pain considering the whole trans weighs close to 250lbs

Before breaking into the tranny for hard part replacement can't you do a TCM program for a line pressure mod and do a stall converter? I think that would help a bunch for ~$2-2,5K.

Hello,

We have a pretty strong Tiptronic upgrade kit which is running on more than 17 cars so far..

It's exactly the same kit thats on my car, it has been proven to hold about ~1000hp without any issues.

I have tested this kit more than 30.000km on my personal 997tt. It will also shift much faster then the original Tip gearbox.

I don't know what other tuners do but i'm pretty sure that we have the most complete upgrade kit in the market;

We upgrade all the sections in the gearbox, we include the gasket kit and we supply a complete new valvebody, not only the solenoids.

You can check your PM for pricing.



Regards,
Emre

others mostly upgrade 2 sections, meanwhile Emre upgrades all the sections.. And the pricing is the same, maybe even lower..

Here is a small video from one of our customers,

You can see how fast our Tiptronic kit changes gears and holds the power of twin Garrett GT30 turbos

Will your kit work on a 2003 996 TT tiptronic? If not, do you have a kit for the 996 TT tiptronic? If so, please PM me with a price. Thanks.
