Upgraded at EPL!!!

Hey Fellow P-Car lovers. I would like to share with you'll my very satisfied EPL experience. My 2004 996 TT received the following upgrades:

-Stage 3 Cluchmasters clutch w/Duel mass flywheel
-GT2 Slave conversion
-USP 2.5" Aluminum Inlet Pipes
-Billet 16K/16G modified Turbos
-72Lb injectors

My journey began again with my trip to EPL to see what is was all about and ended up leaving with a flash. This time I went to talk to Tony about checking to see if My flash was erased after some recent electrical work. We re-installed the flash. And, during testing found a pressure leak. Replaced a broken clamp and I was good to go. But, not before talking Tony talking to me about improvements I could make. And, much like the first time I went to Talk with Tony and I left with a lighter wallet. But, a happier man.

The car drives great. very smooth almost linear accelleration some noticeable bump when the turbos hit. I still have to brake in the clutch. About 400 miles to go. And then I get the filnal tunnig done.

I would like to say Thank you to the EPL Team Tony, Dave and Rich
Here are some pics of the build to hold you over until the dyno sheets are in.

All that money spent and still rocking orange turn signals???




Car looks great, those mods are about as far as I want to take my car as well, but also add some 997 intercoolers.
