that ties the bugatti veyron

 

Wow! 2.9 seconds, very impressive.

Do you think that Stacy could redesign a SC kit to go that fast?

 

$150K is a lot of money. SC or TPC turbo kit on a $40K car looks as a better deal to me.

Ed,

Im thinkin a shot of meth might do it

 

My pockets are NOT that DEEP! Nice thought though Bet I could get 0-60 under 2.0 with my other non-streetable car! LOL Im thinkin about 1.8

 

LOL.....the question IS would he?


For a guy who is afraid/cautious to do FI.....you sure are intrigued by it!
Just do it...you know you want too!
What is the worse case scenario........?

Yup that and a smaller pulley..........easy peasy!

Impressive 0-60 time but more interested in the 0-125 or 0-150 time.

 

The new Turbo with PDK is the ultimate combination. The boost lost in the time it takes one to shift a manual is made up in the efficiency of PDK . It still won't compete with a modded Turbo but it does come real nice from the factory.

Also --the Turbo "S" isn't out yet. That will be even faster.

 

No it doesn't. The Veyron is said to hit 60 in 2.4 seconds however, ANY car that can get to 60 in under 3 seconds is what I would call incredibly quick. Heck, I'm still very impressed with my 997 base model's time of 4.7 seconds. The last car I had was in the high 6's so it's all relative.

 

I would never buy one. Mankind was not made to accelerate to 60 in less than 3 seconds. One would surely perish trying...

Indeed. We will probably be seeing videos on youtube of still photos of the new TT's split in half...

 

She sure kicks serious *** at 2.9. I can only imagine how the S and gen 2 GT2 are going to go....help..where does P go to from there. Hmm... lets see...991? 0 to 60 in 1 second We have lift off...

 

I have been a Turbo fan for many years -even before I ever bought one. The face smearing acceleration of the car is what may attract most but in my opinion it's how well the car manages its power .

All of them make it to 60 pretty fast. There is however this brief lag which occurs when one is not on the throttle . That's where the tuners have taken this car to the next level. Reducing the lag gives the car a more seamless acceleration which is one of the traits most like with the normally aspirated cars.

The big jump comes with changing the Turbos . The stock turbos set to OEM spec seem to let off a bit wheras the the Evoms 700 pull hard through the entire range . It is the most amazing sensation .

I can only imagine where the PDK limits will come into play. I also wonder how much Hp the PDK can take. With a manual car the clutch has to be changed to a stage 3 clutch. In mine I even took out the power assist via a Gt2 conversion so that the engagement point was more precise (10 hrs of labor or so to do this).

It is by far the best Porsche I have ever owned . The interesting thing is that a modified Turbo can be a very hard core sub 11 second car and if rolling it's even more ferocious. Yet a person can go out and buy a PDK Turbo cab and dress it up with luxury if he wants and have this blend of beast and comfort.
