Hi all,

Bought my Atlas Grey 911 Turbo PDK around 3 months ago. To be honest, wasn't keen on the ride quality, arch gap and how much the wheels stuck in! Also how quiet it was, making near enough no noise unless on boost and even then it sounded like a jet fighter crossed with a vacuum cleaner (to me anyway). Quite cool but not what I was looking for, great for the older gentleman, not for a ASBO drifter like me I came from a C63 so I guess was spoilt for noise.


Wanted a 911 all my life, so wasn't going to let these small grievances detract me from my love for the marque! Swiftly I have done the following:


GT2 RS Center Lock Wheels
Michelin Pilot Cup Sport 2's (245/325)
Ohlins R&T Coilovers
H&R Front and Rear Swaybars
Custom 3" Straight Piped Short Exhausts (No CATS/MUFFLERS)
COBB Tune by D at Pro Tuning Freaks

Big thanks to Dzenno from Pro Tuning Freaks for his work on the COBB tube, more info on this soon:

And another big thanks to Ken at Nine Excellence for his help with the suspension / wheels, very down to earth guy. Highly recommended if your in the UK:

It's literally transformed the look and feel of the car, I'm in love. Before it bounced all over the place with PASM off (too soft), then with PASM on it was bone shaking stiff whilst still being bouncy. My drift car felt softer on the road than PASM lol. In my opinion totally mismatched, fine for cruising around on smooth roads, terrible for anything else. Now it's literally a dream to drive! The coilovers suck up the bumps, it doesn't bounce, it feel stiff but not too stiff and I don't have to keep pressing a button Literally couldn't be happier.

Love how Atlas Grey changes in lighting:





Sounds mental. Just have two of these short exhausts either side with twin tips. Maximum gains, minimal lag, and totally irresponsible








Ohlins Coilovers fitted:





I've ordered a Aerokit front splitter but am undecided on the rear, needs a bigger wing. Any suggestions?

I'll update this thread as I go, I've recently started making YouTube videos so will get some videos of the 911 made for anyone who's interested

Cheers,

Nice mods ! If you want a more agresive look you can go with a full vorsteiner VRT carbon fiber bodykit , or simply stay oem and do the aerokit .

 

Cars looks great and the sound of the straight pipes is music to my ears.

Enjoy,

Manuel

 

Dzenno is a guru !

I will give the sound from those straight pipes a 93/100 EPIC

 

Congrats well done!

 

Sweet car and well done! Can you post a vid of you exhaust sound? I've heard that type of exhaust on a Mezger motor but not on the DFI.

 

Congrats, very nice car and great colour!!!

 

Beautiful car. You're in great hands with Dzenno! Looking forward to your feedback once you guys get it dialed in. -Pete

 

LOVE the sound on this setup Toby, so mean! Just sent over a new map revision to try and datalog next.

Thanks bud, sound clip with the V2 revised map

 

This is in cabin lol with windows open. If you stick it in drive you can tame it but I prefer manual mode and lots of noise. When hot on boost it pushes flames out as you accelerate I've noticed. I think DFI engine is particularly quiet and this really brings out the 911 sound with a bit of craziness thrown in.

 

Badass!

 

Looks and sounds amazing! And very quick!!

 

amazing, and I thank you, because you just convinced me to get straight pipes.

You captured Atlas Gray really well and it's definitely hard to show how different it looks in different light.

 

lol it's a great sound, and thanks for the kind feedback!

I did a 1/4 mile run today, my best was 10.80 @ 129.89 - My 60ft wasn't very good at 1.84. I was running 30 psi up front and 34 psi in the rear, shall I lower the rear down to 30 psi? Running Cup Sports.

Track is 100m above sea level, air temp was 24 degrees. Mods are straight pipes (no cats/mufflers) & tune, PDK 2010 Turbo. My first time ever drag racing! Makes a change from going sideways
