Wow...it's really nice to see the terms "PE650, PE700, PE1000" etc.. catching on so well.

I just wanted to come up with a name for my car when it was at 950 HP (I named it "PE950R" for Protomotive Engineering 950 HP, RWD). I remember Todd got a kick out of it. But I never actually thought it would stick.

 

anyone bringing a PE650 to the next Houston 60-130 event?

 

Lou, are you going back to the TXMile at the end of Oct?

 

right now it does not look like it. I have a track event the same weekend. I might just send my car down for a friend to make a run though

 

Gene maybe

 

If i have a stock 996 turbo with only race exhaust. What do i have to change to make the car go like yours? Is it enough to change the turbos to k24/18g and then have a protomotive tune? Or do i have to change blowoff valves, filter and so on?

 

K24/18g's
Greddy EBC
Better IC's
5bar FPR
Upgraded BPV's (not Blowoff valves as our cars do not come with them)
Proto Tune
Port and polish stock headers or aftermarket...
Air intake (filter or aftermarket)
Clutch (will eventually go at this power level)
Maybe take cats off of your exhaust....

I'm sure there are some things I am missing but this is most of the major stuff....

 

Thanks for the info! But the guy who started this thread (hollywood996tt) is still on stock ic, stock headers right? So you don´t HAVE to change all those parts, you just wont get as much hp as you would if you changed the ic and headers and son on?

 

All I'd recommend for 650 HP would be the following:

K24/18g's
Greddy EBC
Upgraded DV's
Proto Tune
BMC filter
Exhaust (which you already have)
Clutch

For 700+ HP get some ICs, 5bar FPR & 60 lb injectors and a Proto intake.

No need to touch the headers at this power level.

 

Thanks man. I´ve sent a mail to protomotive with some questions and price. I would love to put this kit on my car during the winter.

 

You mean Marty scammed me when he sold me his headers. I will have to charge him fair hotel rates if he comes to Texas for the mile event.

 

Still on stock clutch.

 

Paul you're still running the stock clutch? Amazing. Think it'll give once it cools?

 

Ryan yes still stock.

 

GREAT STORY AND KILL!!!! dont know why we love those 996TTs so much , but isnt it so cool to be able to beat the new design, tech and even tunning (997tt) with the old 996TT??? I love it ..... Tks for the story
