Champion ICs being installed

 

GREAT looking car! I love black Turbos. But for my 20k+ miles per year DD 2012 Turbo-S, rain or shine, I went with meteor gray for ease of keeping it clean.

 

Congrats to the OP on a beautiful car.


20k miles/year- love it!

I don't understand the mentality of people that drive them a few hundred miles/year.

Porsches are made to be driven IMO. To each their own...

I drive mine as much as possible during fall, spring, summer. It only hibernates when there is snow on the ground. Then I drive my CTTS.

 

Just saw this thread, enjoy ur ride.

Any updates on you car with the current setup ? 1/4 mile ? Or dyno?. Also how much diffrance did the IC make tu ur car?
Thanks

 

Congrats, beautiful car. What's the most power the PDK will handle?

 

Apologies for the late reply.

I recently took it to the drag strip after installing the Champion intercoolers. The car feels more alive especially top end. The ICs rlly do make a difference.

Problem is you can only get the full potential of these mods with Race gas. My car is tuned for MS109. Last drag night was the first clear run i did since i got the car. It was on a mixture of race and pump gas. I managed to get 10.59 1/4 mile, my 60ft was 1.55 and my trap speed was 210 kmh. I was running pirelli corsa tires.

Next time i hope to get a much cleaner run with pure race gas, meth/water injection and newer tires.

I am yet to dyno the car.

 

Pic of the run.

Switched to Bahraini plates a few months ago.

 

Yes love the black but its a pain to maintain. I have to wash the car everytime i decide to take it on a drive. It will not stay clean.

I think 620 whp. Fueling and transmission are the major issues. But i hear good new from BBI, GIAC and co regarding this matter

 

They must put glue down on the track out there.. 1.55 60' with Pirelli Corsas is insane. Best I could manage, playing with pressures and heating them up, is 1.8 and change. Switched to Toyo r888 and haven't looked back

 

It's flawless, congrats and welcome to the forum!

 

nice track, beautiful car. Get some black floor mats and it will add a nice contrast.

Tracks here in the NE are just awful, jealous!

 

Congrats!! Track prep must be insane. Jealous!

 

Track prep is alright.. You lose traction towards the end of the day.. 1st runs are always the fastest

Thanks mate. I've put some black rubber floor mats.

 

1.55 was a very good 60'. Another bolt ons GTR was
getting similar timings.

When i was stock i could only manage 11.78, but i had some issues with my tune at the time.

Attached is the slip for the run when i was stock, was running the same set of corsas, pump gas and grip was an issue, it was too humid.

 

Wow that's an epic launch! Congrats on the great run. I think you can go even faster with pure MS109 next time.
