Europipe & Intake whats next?

Hello all,

I have been lurking here for some time and finally decided to post. I currently drive a 08 911 turbo with europipe stg 2 and fabspeed intake, I'm going to have a custom tune done on my car this spring but would like to get some feedback on what other mods I can do to maximize the power on the stock turbo's ? Since I will be getting a custom tune I would like to figure out what other components I can do to achieve more hp. I was thinking intercoolers, turbo piping and possibly gt2 throttle body.

Thanks for your help.

I would remove that intake and use the stock air box.
Then I would get the 997.2TT/GT2RS intercoolers and do a tune.

Stock intake and boost recirculation valves from evoms or forge...ics from 997.2 have the best value for money...but get them if you live in a hot climate...not essential in winter...and of course a reflash to see what your car is capable of...

if you really want get the most out of the stock turbos, do the fuel system and get a e85 tune, makes a huge different! And also 997.2 ic and switch back to stock intake.

Similar situation here, but I will stick with the stock intake. I have a Kline exhaust and 997.2 IC's waiting for spring. Then I plan on injectors and an protomotive E85 tune.

I'm sure that will be plenty of power, after this I think one should look at the suspension.

Thanks for the help guys I really appreciate it. I think the next mods are intercoolers, injectors and an e85 tune. I run an e85 tune on my c63 and it runs awesome. Already have suspension and a clutch and flywheel set up so I think with the addition to intercoolers and a tune will keep me happy. Any ideas on hp output with europipe, and an e85 tune?

Supbimm6: I'm back and forth between Manhattan and boston, once winter is over I will be permanently in Boston if you are local I wouldn't mind showing you the exhaust and beautiful sound it makes.

Thanks again guys really appreciate your help.
