As it was explained to me from a representative of Gemballa North America in California .....TODAY......the ENTIRE 675+hp turbo swap upgrade kit for the CTT...Is 26K .........I posted the # .......We all know why you havent just called for yourself.......

 

how the hell did I missed this thread, maye be it;s the
"CTT Side Emblems title",LOL

 

Hanny,

600HP update is fine with me,LOL
I cant wait for my car to look like this

 

I thought it is the Body kit alone that costs around $20K ??? am I rite?

edit: I re-read this Thread and It costs 28 grand for the Body Kit. So the Body Kit costs more than the turbo?

 

Yea the entire widebody kit costs 28K......yes 2 grand more than the Turbo swap.....but think about it from Gemballa's POV......they are going to sell alot more widebody kits than turbo upgrade kits........so why wouldnt they jack the price of the widebody kit up.........

OK hanny--- I dont know why your wasting your time trying to get in touch with Heinz.....Do you live in Germany??? No SoCal.....Where Gemballa has a North American office .....I mean when you have service issues with the CTT do you call porsche in stuttgart ....NO.....your local dealer.....So why would u call Gemballa Germany???The only reason you should ever call Heinz would be to get parts exclusive in germany...that Gemballa NA cant/wont get you......As for the brake upgrades i would assume it was part of the kit.......I highly doubt gemballa would let you leave after buying the turbo upgrades with a inferior clutch and brake setup...Thats just common sense......i mean come on use your head.....But either way if the brakes arent included simply add on another 8 grand for brakes (which are far superior to your X50 brake upgrade) and your still under 40K for the fastest, highest hp CTT in the states.......As for warranty issues.....You think its to hard to drive to Gemballa NA and drop the car off if your having any problems??? Also its interesting that my local dealership now offers the GIAC ECU tuning done in house.........Whats murphys law got to say about that.......BTW.....have you run into any problems with your aftermarket turbocharged 993???


Well put Adiaz

 

That correct 28 grand for the kit. But my estimate for the install was extremley UNDER ESTIMATED.

 

Thats not true. The kit prob costs between 30-38 grand in the usa.

 

 

The price I quoted is only the engine upgrade IT DOES NOT INCLUDE reinforcing the clutch, bigger brakes, and additional oil cooling kit for the engine and the clutch.

I think the price you were quoted by hienz might have been for just the bigger turbos and some other thing he might be selling, ie: intercoolers etc. Dont forget the additional charges for haveing your work done at gemballa usa

 

Yea my bad i honestly dont remember all the german guys name's i deal with......when i needed my bumpers from Germany 2 years ago i thought i dealt with Heinz....however it was probably Hanz or Franz ..........Hanny i have called Gemballa NA 2 times in the last week....both times they picked up and my question was answered instantly.....Why dont you just call them and ask??? (B/C you know when u call your going to be proven wrong) Now lets take a step back here for a minute.......When i called Gemballa, i asked them to quote me the price for the entire Turbo upgrade kit......first they quoted me 21K then the second time 28K .......Now lets think about this from a safety perspective.....would Gemballa (very reputable company) Tune a car the point where it was unsafe with weak brakes and clutch??? NEVER.... i could see them tacking on this and that once the car got there.....but they would never let a CTT leave the shop knowing the clutch was going to blow up and having inferior brakes.........and then for the sake of argument if we are talkin 30-40K in total parts for the turbo swap.....your going to have 700hp ......Which is a far better deal than your retarded X50 package and far more powerful than the upcoming CTS which you seem to want so badly.Now i know what your thinking what about the warranty.....YOU LIVE IN CALI.....drive to Gemballa in LA and make them fix it.......i dont know how much easier it could get.......BTW.....have you had any problems with your aftermarket turbo charged 993????? did murphys law kick in for that porsche????

 

Wow you guys... keep it cool.
I think this is all about the prices... how about either of you call Gemballa NA, record it and post it up...

 

Yeah you guys high jacked this thread,
let's go back to the side emblem discussion

 

I saw a BMW with 'AMG' emblem on it and it looks stupid. Don't do it.

 

I say dont do it!
