I am sorry to be a little pesimistic here.
Basic physics laws are extremely clear. Every piece of hardware has limits.
I have never heard in my life that you can overcome those limits by "fooling"
the hardware with software tricks.

Hope I am wrong. Good luck !

Switzer has been selling R911 kits for a long time now and all of them have made over 800whp on race gas. I understand your logic, but your basically saying everyone that has owned a R911 package has blown there motor. If that were the case I highly doubt Switzer would still be in business. What I mean as far as syvecs helping is that there hasn't been any problems with past R911's that did not have a standalone, so mine on E85 and syvecs should only run safer than the others. Something can always go wrong in any build. I've heard of people having headaches with vtg's it's just part of the game. We will see soon though!

 

the main portion of any high performance build it getting all the parts in and getting the old oem parts out ready to go for performance. I have a block for a build im coordinating on a Saturn Sky thats been at the machine shop for 3 months while he waiting on some parts to be forged and cryo. 8 weeks for a full performance build and tunes is actually pretty fast. I had some cars take up to 6 months to get all the parts ready to go and assemble

 

Update: I just got back from Switzer in Ohio. It was an amazing experience. I spent almost 4 hours at the shop with them. Everybody at the shop was very friendly and professional. The shop was so clean I don't know where to start. When I walked in the engine building area I felt like I was in a surgery center. The engines are kept and built in a humidity controlled room with individual warmers kept on each motor, everything was so clean I just couldn't believe it. These guys are no joke they have their Sh*t together. Tym was nice enough to have the shop manager take me for a ride in a Ultimate Street Edition Flex Fuel GTR with the new Syvecs (1050whp GTR, 4.2 60-130 probably) and that thing scared the Sh*t out of me. It just kept pulling and pulling. Crazy that car is known as their daily driver package .

As far as my car, it wasn't ready so I couldn't take her for a drive. Tym said they are waiting on two fittings to finish up. Motor is back in and the Tilton triple carbon clutch is in as well. So I'm hoping very soon.

Thanks again to everyone at Switzer. It was definitely worth the trip

 

Wow!

I'm looking forward to hear from you when you get your car!

By the way, I start loving my Gallardo too much so maybe my goal next year is gonna be a TT ;-)

Thank you for sharing!

 

You picked one of the best shops out there. Ill have a winter project done not sure if I'm gonna do the p700 or p800. Talked to the at Texas. Saw there's car and streetablily is perfect. They also took me for a ride in a USE gtr. I was lost for words. Keep us updated

 

Thanks, I feel they are the best. Awesome, I would go with the P800 because its a GT based turbo over the p700 (VTG). Either way you will be very happy I'm sure. Haha I know what you mean. The USE they took me in was about a 100whp more than the one in Texas so just imagine that. Any questions on a kit feel free to PM me. If you ever come to Vegas let me know I'll take you for a ride.

 

Thanks Leo!

I see a UGR Stage 1 in your future

 

Yes!

 

Yes!!!!

 

Looks like a sweet upgrade- I'm stoked for you. Like everyone else I'm dying to see how it turns out.

haha and you swore you'd never spend that $ to do it... but you have the sickness

 

Thanks Cam! Yeah me too

 

I swear I saw a post from you within the last 2-3 weeks saying you never would. It's hard not too, too much fun. Next thing you know that one year wait will turn into 4-6 months.

 

Update:

Switzer took her out yesterday for the first time since finishing up dyno and street tuning. With Tym driving (240 lbs) and a (200lb) passenger they pulled a 5.08 60-130. Tym said this word for word," Car ran a 5.0 60-130 today with 2 people in the car and a non abusive shift... Fast but treating it as a car that's not our own obviously. We're not quite done dialing it in, but should be completed by tomorrow." Hoping to hit a 4.6 when I get her home ,when I try it out alone (automatic 260lb weight savings). Here's the link to the 60-130 thread with the Vbox data from the run:
