I read several times your experience with Jessica on another forum and I confess that your experience has helped me make this work with Mike on my car.
My last car was a Porsche 996TT Sportec with ~ 500HP and 697 Nm and hopefully find the same feeling with this transformation

Hey Vince looks fab won't belong till you get her back.
I can't wait to hear how you find her ! I get Jessica back this week as she has been getting the suspension finalised also have some new wheels to look forward to. You must let me know when you go to pick her up as I will pop up to see you both.

Excellent Job Vince! The compression bump from 11.0 to 12.5 should pick up serious gains in conjunction with the appropriate tune. Are you still able to run regular premium 93US/98EU octane in the car or are you going to have to permanently run higher octane to prevent detonation?
Cant wait to see the results and the final dynos !!

Me too! I think you should be ok with 12.5:1 compression but you will definitely have to dial back the timing on the ECU tune and run a more conservative timing with such a high compression ratio (just to be on the safe side of course).

The brakes (discs + calipers).
To accommodate this larger model we must change a few things:

Hey Vince
You wont be dissapointed with the brakes ! they are immence, even when pushing hard there is absolutly no fade.
I got Jessica back last week with the fully adjustable electronic suspention which is amazing. that just plain changes the ride sooo much. Its like going for a slow sunday trip out to full on ready to race.
