Nice run. What did you do that was different?

I still don't have the Cayenne back in Denver yet. This was a 6 week project that turned into 6 months. I should have the truck this Thursday and will let you know if it was worth the wait.

 

Thanks!

Just never really did it before, so it took me a while to get the RPMs up with the brake on to get a good launch..Once i figured that out, i was in the mid to low 13's every run..

Still think i could get in the high 12's, just need to go more..

 

What were your launch RPMs? Sounds like 12's are right around the corner!

 

In between 2500 and 3000 rpms. Could i take her higher?

 

I don't know. Keep experimenting but you might risk bogging if you go much higher. I have no experince with the Cayenne at the strip as my Cayenne has been with EVOMS since the day I bought it. Believe it or not, I've never even driven my truck, stock or otherwise! It went from the dealership to Phoenix.

13.3 is a great time for such a heavy vehicle. What was you 60' time?

 

102mph. I did one run at 104 but my time was mid 13's. i don't understand that!

 

What was your 60' time, not trap speed? The trap speed is an indicator of how much HP your truck is making. The 60' time helps with your ET.

You probably won't see much of an improvement in trap speed but with a better 60' time (launch) you may see an improvement in your ET.

At the end of the day, low 13's at 104 mph is very respectable. I've yet to see a Cayenne in the 12's but I'm sure one's out there somewhere.

 

Not sure. i'm trying to find my slip.
Thanks for the help!
peace

 

Using the approx. weight of your vehicle it would take about 475 WHP to run 104 mph. You're probably making in excess of 550 crank HP. Does this sound about right?

 

YUP!!!!

Going to get it dynoed very soon.

 

I received my Cayenne this afternoon and I'm very impressed. It's deceptively fast. The power delivery is better than stock with substantially less turbo lag. It's incredibly smooth and quiet for such a powerful truck. The sensation of speed is impressive but muted due to the size and weight of this truck. It's truly incredible when you watch the speedo and realize just how quickly you're accelerating. I had a 2002 996TT and my father has a Bentley GT. This thing smokes the Bentley and is easily as quick as the 996TT. My brother has a 2004 996TT and we're racing for pinks when he gets back in town! j/k

Todd also upgraded the brakes. They're unreal. When I first tested them I thought that I was going to fly through the window.

This build took awhile (it's the first GT700 Cayenne and he took his time and did it right) but was worth the wait. I expected good power but I did not expect that it would drive better than stock. Well done Todd and EVOMS! This thing is proof that pigs can fly! I highly recommend this upgrade to anyone who wants a 3 ton rocket.

 

enjoy your rocket!
congrat...

 

Congrats...any pics and dyno sheet maybe?

 

Nice we needs some pics of it now.

 

This is one impressive machine. Evo650 stopped by the dealer today and took me out in it, Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde. Cruising feels totally stock, very driveable around town, but step on it and it is amazing. The blow off valves sound awesome releasing the boost. If Perma-grin is what you're looking for this gets it done. Looks incredible too, from wheels, to brakes, and the titanium colored trim and emblem. Thanks again for the drive. And my money's on this Cayenne vs 996TT.
