It should be a lot of fun, we're looking to take this car to another level, the goal I've always had for it was a 700-800hp Turbo Cup Car (obviously dialed down for most road courses). For most events myself or Nero will be driving the car. I want to take the car to the mile and Nero wants to take it to the dragstrip, either way it's good fun for both of us. Once we get to Sebring who knows, it's going to be much easier to develop the car, than it will be to develope myself as a driver, I've definitely got to fit a few DE's into my schedule to get progressing on that. In the meantime we have a hired shoe in mind that can sort the car out once we get to that point.

I should have it or the Yellow car at this coming C&C, right now I enjoy driving it much more as it's got a bit more bite. In the future I will likely bring out this car as it progresses and gets some much needed power (and a Tilton clutch which I can't seem to live without in my cars).

Eventually yes, start with the K24/18Gs as it will relate to what 75% of our customers will want. Then we'll go with a GT30 sized / custom spec'd turbo for those wanting more power.

I'm looking forward to seeing how you guys improve the handling of the car more so than the power upgrades.

By the way, is that Kid GT2's car for sale on your site?

We will work on the handling as well, that's something relatively easy to do, once we start road coursing the car it will take a bit more work, but something we'll deal with when we get there. The car will have a lot of take-off Cup car parts installed.

Yes that is Kid GT2s car for sale on the site.

Thanks Tony and Dan.

I would also like to mention that we are willing to work with any other vendor on this project to test or develop their own products with an independent opinion. I have no problem running competitors products on the car, and include them in our performance kits if they're reasonably priced and proven to work. I also hope to produce quality parts for other tuners and take advantage of bulk pricing. This method has worked for years in the Supra world and I have no problem seeing why the same can't be true in the Porsche market. We currently sell to many Porsche tuners already (Protomotive / IA / Vivid/ EPL to name a few), and buy from many of the same tuners we sell to. This project is more of a fun project for us personally, however we look to produce some great parts and change the industry a bit for the better. There is plenty out there for everyone, and my goal is to convert many E46/Sti/EVO/Supra owners over to this platform, who previously view it as too expensive to tune. This will be mutually beneficial to all as the price drop of these cars make them affordable.

We are wrapping up a 2JZ, Supra IRS'd Plymouth Prowler that makes over 800hp. Needless to say we have the capabilities to work on just about anything, given the proper time frame and funds. We've owned a Porsche for over 3 years now, just haven't gone crazy with the build-up.

Don't mean to hijack the thread... and I know you are new to the selling side of the industry, but becareful what you say that could not be public information or incorrect to skew customers views. "We sell to many Porsche tuners already (Protomotive / IA / Vivid/ EPL to name a few)."

Vivid Racing has in the past used Titan as a wholesale distributor for performance products such as Greddy, NX, Blitz, and other components which we now buy direct from the manufacturers. We have never purchased any Porsche products from Titan. In fact, Titan is a "dealer" of our Agency Power product line.

I don't mind the hijack, and you are correct, we sell to many tuners through our wholesale department. I'm quite framiliar to the selling side of the industry, if you feel the need to clarify your stance that's understandable.
