The thought of gaining an extra 100 HP out of my C R.. .. seriously

in jim rome fashion... "CANT WAIT!!!!"
i mean really... the car is fast and quick... but ive been in faster cars..
the car needs that extra throw you back in the seat power... or at least, thats what i want out of this car... and the car is close to it but it could be quicker...
But cramming an 100hp into the cayman r... why not... this car is going to be the monster it was meant to be...
she sits at tpc... undergoing modern day plastic surgery... she went in with a decent b cup bra size... she's coming out with double d's and some suspenion to boot... i cant wait to touch her again...

Sounds like low pressure TPC turbo system and stage 3 TPC suspension. Am I right? Cayman R comes stock with LSD, car is going rock when done!

its sitting at TPC Racing.. theyll post the thread about it.. Harry L and Tom C. are on it... they have the info and dyno charts posted on their site...
.. i know its a touchy subject among certain porsche owners... but after a dozen track days... i want more power.. suspension set up just makes sense..
for what im doing with the car... its a weekend warrior track car..
bone stock i am able to clip a few 2:32s at sebring... average 34s/36s.. but.. i need some mental confidence.. and a little help.. i think this will be the right set up to bust into the 20's down there... if i can get into the 26s/28s and not crash.. ill be happy..

How about 4.2 Liters from Flat6innovations

We Beat The Factory!
Cayman X is Alive!!! The world's first DFI 9A1 Big Bore engine boasts 4.2 liters!
"X" for Experimental....

Flat 6 Innovations & LN Engineering have been busy this year developing new products for the current generation Porsche Flat Six "DFI" engines.

Going where no one had ventured before, we started with a perfectly good running Porsche 3.4 liter DFI engine from the current generation 9A1 engine family. Without any OEM support we reconstructed the engine into a 4.2 liter fire breathing beast, using many components and processes developed to maximize the 9A1 platform by Flat 6 Innovations and LN Engineering. No components or processes to complete the engine's internals were outsourced to any other company to facilitate this development. This is a 100% effort between our partnered companies as a "Top Secret" development! How we have attained this level of displacement and performance simply will not be shared.


An aggressive developmental approach was taken with this internal exploration of the 9A1 engine, meaning that we have taken the platform to the absolute largest cylinders and pistons possible and have found the limitations, strengths and weaknesses of this 9A1 engine family YEARS before anyone else. We did not take the easy road; rather we took serious risks by going large right out of the gate. Keep in mind that the basis for this development was a perfectly good running, 14,000 mile vehicle and engine that needed nothing.

Our desire for being the first and going the farthest, with the largest was the only drive behind "Cayman X". To say the least the day it fired up for the first time was an awesome day after so many months of design and overcoming adversity on a routine basis. Here is video teaser of the first test drive

4.2 engine? Surely this must be pumping out over 500 hp.

"YEA-UH" Need more video of this car. NA 4.2L in Cayman sounds just bad (in a good way).
