is the acceleration close to the 996T/997T?

 

It is close to a modern 987 3.4L Boxster. Our standard turbo on a new Cayman/Box accelerates like a modern turbo car.

I'm curious about transmission longevity with the additional torque. The G86.20 is rated for just 280 ft-lbs from Getrag: http://www.getrag.de/en/241

You guys have been doing FI for a while now... any issues noted?

 

the dyno results indicate that there is an increase in hp of approximately 73hp (baseline of 194.6...turbo of 267.66). however, the tpc website claims an increase of approximately 100hp. is there an explanation for the discrepancy?

 

i'm also interested in how the additional power will affect the longevity of the transmission and other systems of the car.

 

The discrepancy is the fact that we used very conservative boost levels with this car as it was aging. Also didnt want to tax a 127k old tip trans. The tiptronic trans does not translate power as strong as a Manual so you will see a hold back on that as well.

 

oops, I missed the part about it being a tip.

That's a big oil cooler. Anyone know if it can be fitted to the 6-speed box?

 

We need a group buy for the turbo kit. Maybe tpc will do a great price of around 3k on the whole kit

3.4 turbo box would be great.

One can dream.

 

I had no idea they made bolt-on turbo kits for these cars. What kind of fuel/engine management does it run? Pretty cool stuff.

 

The management is done in house with a flashed ECU and 6 larger injectors.

 

I am interested!

 

sent you a pm in response.

 

very nice work! I did not see description on the website for the option with utilizing cat converters. Can you expand on that a bit more? If I go this route, it is on a 986 boxter S with about 80k miles manual transmission. Would my tuning be similar to this giving me about 270 hp to the wheels? or would it be more because of the manual trans? or even less because I want to keep the cats on?
