Yeah . You would better save up some money . I have seen those UGR 2R lambos going cheaper and cheaper . But truely nothing will ever come close to the luxury and performance of our panameras

Oh I'm keeping the ptt. But yea having 1400 hp for a fun car will be awesome. Would love to get a huracan but I doubt in 2 years the turbo versions will be cheap so probably a nice gallardo those things are so fast

Hey gang... just posted my OE turbos (that I have left over from my turbo swap) up on the marketplace. Check it out if you are interested in doing the same upgrade either with FVD, ARD or custom (I'm 100% this is the best bang for your buck upgrade)...

Got a question about labor to install/swap the turbos... My shop (Freed Performance) performed the labor in one day (<12 hrs). My recommendation is to do downpipes, turbo swap and a tune in one stage.

I second that. By far well worth the money to see very noticeable gains may list my stock ones too

Ben, cayenne, iglambo,

Do any of you have larger wheels than stock? 21, 22's?

Or you went on stock/lighter wheel set?

On 22 and simple mods, the tires do not grip.

I have never been a fan of biger wheel that 20" . I bought my car with 19" wheels with continental tires.The cars simply dont have traction. I ordered some light weight wheels which weighr at about 10.9kg per wheels even lower than my oem 19 .I will run michelin supersport also because my friend bmw m5 f10 runs SS and they are so sticky that the car dont go sideways(drift) . I dont think you will find michelin SS for 22 tires ?!

I just hate the look of these cars with the stock wheels. It looks the tires are too small for the size of the car.

Please post pictures of your car with your wheels when you get a chance.

You have a photo in my thread . Stock 19 wheels do look bad because tire is to thick. My 20" ats racelight will come in 7 days I hope . I just keep my car on the sport setting and it doesnt look that bad.

Yup - 22" look great but your options are limited to just the pirelli pzero Nero gt. I wasn't able to find super sports

The 22s pzero nero is a terrible tire, they have no grip. This is the reason why I went back to 20s, more options for tires. Would've went 21s but michelin discontinued the PS2 in the size needed for the panamera.

Yeah I have the pirellis (21) on my cayenne . You cant hit a bump or a hole because the wheel and the tire will be destroyed . I have destroyed 3 until now . Some months ago they complained about pirellis on Formula 1 .

Tony , strange ps2 is an older tire than pss . They costed 300 euro more here for the set. (all 4 tires) than the pss ,which is very strange since ss shows better laptimes on the same car

My opinion of the pirelli pzero Nero gt is they are just slightly better but pretty much the same performance as the 20" OE Pirelli that the come on a new PTT... Handles a little better since switch but attribute that if assume to a move up to a wider wheel. I haven't driven a panamera with M SS so nothing to compare to there...

It looks like the original turbo unit is made in japan one more reason to upgrade. I like the fact you were photographing on the leather couch.
