He just raised the bar
Congrats Buddy. For all of us that have been not watching closely, what did you exactly have done. What other beefing up away from the engine needs to be done ( brakes, clutch, doors, hood, etc. etc.) If one has a car that is nearly stock. how much would it cost to do what you have done and I long would it take? You have raised the bar and have gotten everyone excited again about owning a turbo. Fu#$$k the 997 turbo

Here is what the car is:
They are the Garrett T04 dual ball bearing monster's!
From the PES website:
We chose custom Garrett T04B dual ball bearing turbos for this application. These turbos utilize the highest turbo technology available. They are also water cooled (factory turbos are not). Since the new Garrett turbos have completely different fittings/flanges, everything must be custom fabricated.
Twin Garrettâ„¢ T04B dual ball bearing turbos with proprietary bearing housings
Twin stainless steel headers with external wastegates
Twin Tialâ„¢ billet external wastegates
High flow stainless steel exhaust with German 100 cell catalysts
6 custom high flow fuel injectors
Custom billet mass air flow sensor
Custom GIAC ECU tuning
Stainless/braided coolant lines/fittings to turbos
Oil lines/fittings
Electronic boost control system
My car starts with that then you have to add the Carillo Rods, head studs, etc.. EVO air inlet tubes, EVO V-Flow intake, EVO boost hoses and you have some kind of Stage 5 ++ Mongrel!
It is definately more of an Autobahn Crusher than stoplight to stoplight racer.
I have a lightweight flywheel, heavy duty Sachs clutch, stainless brake lines, pagid pads, KW V3 coilover suspension, H&R swaybar.
Other than that the car looks stock, no wings or wheels.
Now I would not say I have raised the bar as their are several owners on this site that have more powerful and faster tt's. I will also not recommend going the route I did because it was not planned but out of necessity that I ended up here.
I think anyone looking for a high hp car would do well with the GT800 package. This was not around when I started the Stage 5 was just coming out in fact I believe my car is the 2nd car ever completed after the developmental car. Now most people don't really offer a Stage 5.

Meanwhile, my new exhaust is being fabricated. It is proving VERY difficult to squeeze 3 in tubing into the tight quarters, but my guy is confident he can get it done. We are awaiting a custom made 3 in radius bend which is being done by Burns Stainless. I am hopeful that this will come together early next week. I am confident that this new exhaust will create more power than anything currently available off the shelf (except straight pipes).
We are getting close.
