So my car is under construction, again.

I have 5 more months left here in Bahrain, so I figured I'd make good use of it to get some more power out of my TT before I return home.

It ships to Todd K. at Protomotive on Tuesday, and will be getting upgraded internals, new turbos, some exhaust/intake work, triple-carbon clutch, and of course Todd's custom tuning. Maybe a few other small things as well.

As far as power, it should be right in between my current level and Marski and Alex's level when all is said and done. More info to come in the future.

Awesome. Keeping up with the Joneses (one of the fastest cars already) is getting difficult! Good luck and keep safe.

Awesome news.

Scott,

How many miles have you put on it so far? Just curious to see how many miles it has run on the stock motor.
