Yumaverick, LOL your right Porsche tax is rough! I will have to research the GT30 upgrade and the proper intercoolers that would need to go with that setup though. Is that a direct bolt on kit? I am not sure that diving into the motor would be considered a “powerkit” though. But since you have brought that part up? Is there a specific power kit that also includes the internal configuration of the motor also? I haven’t seen one yet.

With GT30 theres a lot of fabricating involved and to fully benefit from the kit you have to build the motor or the power will be similar to a maxed out VTG kit. I would just stay with a VTG kit if I was you. A good 650whp, all bolt on, with multiple maps for different fuel.

Yumaverick, thanks for your input with the fabrication complications. I would like to find something that is truly a "plug and Play" option though. I have TIG/MIG welders and Plasma touches but I would rather not use them on my car if possible.<O</O

Mikkofin is infamous around these parts
I have the EVT775 package installed on mine and I like it.
Linear power from down low and highly useable kit in everyday traffic.

Leo, Honestly your service to the states is what allows me to stay up late and speak about a great car that I can choose to drive on the weekends. Your service is greatly appreciated and not ever neglected or unrecognized! I respect all troops!
