997.1TT FVD Stage 2+ Install

So I finally had my FVD Stage 2 kit put in (filter, catless exhaust, tune), headers, 82mm plenum and TB. The tune was modified to compensate for the additional components. Here is my feedback:<O</O

1. Service: Had the work done a Green Motorsport in Springfield, VA. Dave and his staff are great! Very knowledgeable and customer service oriented. Doesn't hurt that he normally has my favorite beverage and cigars laying around either (Johnny Blue and AF God of Fire). Great place, excellent personalized service and reasonable pricing!<O</O
<O</O

2. Performance: Holy hell. Me along with three people who took turns riding in my car, crapped their pants. Now my Turbo smells like ****...J/K. I did a few short runs and launched at about 2500-3000 RPM. The amount of power was unimaginable. Acceleration times are greatly reduced for sure. Turbos spool much quicker and there is no perceptible lag. The amount of power was physically overwhelming. What have I created?! Totally Amazing!<O</O
<O</O

3. Streetability: Well, I drove her to the office today and she still drives like a Camry in everyday situations. Very smooth and normal, until I have to give her some gas, which then she goes berserk. It is really insane what can be done with these cars and a true testament to the engineering and build quality.<O></O>
<O</O

So, my hats off to the guys at Green Motorsport! Every day, I love my TT more and more. What a beast! <O</O
<O</O

Next on the list is a bit of suspension work. Dave and his crew will be installing a set of Bilstein coils-overs and sways!

I'll post pics later tonight.<O</O

Dave@Green Motorsports is the shop you want to go to when modifying Porsches.
They also have a great (not afraid to say the best) alignment rack as well!

I would recommend to everyone!

Yes, the alignmnet system and road force balancing machine are great! They will be aligning my TT after the Bilstein setup; going to go with a more aggresive setup for street and track.

Hi Rhonda! Yes, enjoying them very much. Green Motorsport (GMS) and I are planning a few track days in March (summit point) to further tune the TT. GMS is a great place and a lot of fun to just go and hang out, talk about Porsches. Do you know about Dave's Cayenne package? That thing is nutz!

It will be FATT for the short term but we are working on a 'secret' project that will allow us to get involved in more competitive events.

Does Dave know you? PM me your name and I'll tell him you said hello.
