so, i've been in touch with the guys at HPA (Google Them). They do a lot of work on the VR6 engines. They are readying their release of a new kit which they say could be adapted to our Cayenne's if the interest was there. Who would be interested in this? I assume its about a year away. Let me know and i'll relay the info. Maybe we can get a kit made afterall

 

Coool...i am stoked for you guys
Cant wait to see those Base jump on down the road

You click left on "sonstige"
Then on Porsche cayenne

Already rolling in Europe.

 

would this fit the 3.2 VR6?

 

oh I emailed those guys awhile ago.......they wont offer it in the states either for costs reasons or emissions.

 

Looks like it'll take it up to 470 HP for 29,000 euros.

Might be better to trade in and get an 'S'

 

and that's for the older 3.2L engine, not the new 3.6L.

 

Last I checked, the dollars about 1/3 less than euro.........go grab a Twin turbo for same price....

 

They also have a kit for the 3.6.

Anyone here who thinks you can almost double the HP from a fuel engine for less in a reliable way is wrong...
Unless you can DIY

Getting a TT is a much better way I agree

btw, HPA is a dealer for them

 

def not looking to double hp! 400whp would be a nice goal and i think its attainable on these motors with close to factory reliability. I've been moding cars for a while and you're always taking a risk, but in my opinion, its more fun to build your own Plus, i've got a 6sp, remember?

HPA is working on releasing their 20th anniversary kit for the VR4 platform (VW's right now) that will be under $10k. This is what they're talking about adapting to our car if there's interest. For that price, i think its a great option. If anyone's interested in exploring this further, shoot me a PM.

 

Yeah but as soon you put yourself (or your tuner) one tool to your 2011 porsche you won't have 0 warranty...

Imagine getting for the same money a 07 or 08 turbo and then spending 10K in modding, you'll have a 700HP monster

That's so much cooler

 

I'm really intrigued by this, but I haven't taken delivery of the car yet so not sure if I'll really need much more power. I take delivery on monday so I guess I'll find out real soon!

the combination of a lighter weight/better balanced VR6, manual transmission, and a turbo sounds pretty fantastic.

I think when my warranty runs out this would be the perfect option to keep me interested in the car, instead of going out and buying something new.

 

Nice Dan- the wait is almost over. Looking forward to seeing pics and reading about your driving impressions w the 6 speed.

 

Better balanced VR6 ?

 

yes the 6 cylinder engine is lighter weight that the 8 cylinder engines giving a better balanced weight distribution.
