ace996 is infamous around these parts

NX...not legal for most roadcourses and has only one benefit of the water-injection....intercooling. Really, set up your car with a good 50/50 mix (legal for roadcourses, easy to mix, cheap) and show the differences in power/torque/spool. And then call your bank like I said....

Be good,

The turbos, exhaust and headers are pretty easy to access as they below the engine. It doesn't look that difficult.

What would be awesome would be a step by step video and/or heavily picture laden tutorial for removing everything and installing new turbos on a 996TT.

My comment was "in response to" rather than "in ignorance of" Dan's comment. Thanks though.

Sorry my post was rushed and vague, if you visit our Porsche Gallery, there are images showing the removal of headers and turbos I believe. Also there should be some in our installation of the 650 kit too. I will try to do a step by step on the next car to help out.

Dan,
Where do you normally mount the Greddy and how long does it take to mount it?

Several spots you can do it at. I will drive my car tomorrow and take a picture of mine. It is installed over my aftermarket navigation. We also installed it on other cars between the seat heater buttons of the "batwing".

The greddy takes about 1 hour to install. If you get fancy where you put the controller, that could add time.

RUF - those times are good to have. You would have to have the same quality driver do each car to get exact comparisons. I suck at drag racing! As far as the name, we can call it a stage 42 if you would like. The numbers and stages are really nothing important. Its all about the components!
