I have a v6 and it drives ok, actually the wife drives that. it is slow compared to my tt and my g55, but she really does not need to go fast, 65 is fast for her. i say go for it, looks nice imo.

i drove the cayenne and i thought it was sufficient, but ordered the S cuz i know soon or later i would need more. So yeah a better platform is good to start with.

But I think you should get the regular Cayennee and spend the extra cash to buy ur Turbo sign.
lol

turbo charging a V6 pepper

I am also considering a v6 pepper for my wife. I am sure that is all she needs to pick up the kids and do a little shopping. But having a little extra punch would be nice. Does anybody know of a kit or a tuner that is currently doing turbo or super charging of the v6 Cayenne's? I would be interested to see any technical information out there.

Thanks,

They already have a Supercharger for the Touareg, I'm sure they will be coming up with one, havent seen a turbo charged though.

Thanks,
If you are looking at cayennes

either buy the V6 (Don't super/turbo charge it!!!)

Or buy the Cayenne S (will be cheeper and better/more reliable/better warranty service, etc. and not to mention faster... than if you were to buy the V6 and super/turbo charge it )

Hope you understand what I am trying to say

Porsche Broke Down

I'm sorry to say that there won't be any pictures posted tonight. The Porsche is being worked on, and the Sequoia is being detailed. I'm going to post some pix as soon as I can though!

I was surprised but the V6 was quite fast, enough for most people.
