Frank did you read the signature of Pierre? :D He is really using that car in any conditions and everywhere! With winter tires is ok but the roads in Switzerland are more that ok in the winter time :)
-
the biggest problem is the need for more power! :)

check FVD.de

steven, at what price did you find the belts?
-
I know that there is a difference between the two ('01-'02), it was a topic on 6speed about this. I love too the red belts, they look awesome on a black interior! :)

The good and the ugly part of my trip to Maine....
alex_55 replied to jpflip's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
This is the attitude that i like, keep up the good work JP! ps. for everybody is hard in these days but when you go out in the night with the windows down the radio off just to cruise in the 996turbo all the problems disappear :P -
good luck! after the flash you will not believe that is the same car!
-
SKN tuning from germany, thank you :)

here is a good DIY, some say that is better to lower a little bit the engine( you don't need to take off the rear bumper) mine where mounted w/o lowering the engine. I have the Agency power dv's but i didn't buy the f hose. don't buy the BOV ones is a porsche not a subaru! I think that samco is the provider of all the hoses in the market... http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/agency-power-racing-diverter-valve-pair-porsche-996ttcayenne-0105-p-53979.html AWE_DV1_996TT.pdf

Bose Subwoofer Cable - Where Is It In Gt2
alex_55 replied to Simonoz's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
I dont think there is a Bose subwoofer in an original GT2. The GT2 was designed to save weight and they did not come with rear seats, sunroof, spare tire, etc.. Im almost positive there wasn't even an option for the Bose system. Unless the car is not a real GT2. The gt2 doesn't have the bose system -
Identifing Cluster For Cruise Control Retro Fit
alex_55 replied to JonathanS's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
what is the cost to retro fit the cruise control? I don't have cruise control! -
The 14.7 at normal driving is good if you want good fuel economy...it's the stoichometric number for best use of Air and fuel, but... it's not the best number for power. But it looks like your car is fattening up the fuel the higher it revs so that's good and the fact that it's 12.8, 12.5, 12, etc is awesome. If you can keep the AFR close to 12.5 without detonation than you're optimal for power too. You just don't want to run that lean of AFR at high revs on a boosted car if you're getting knock. Looks great to me... Thank you very much! :)

Last night I measured my afr and i would like to share with you guys and tell me what to you think about it at normal driving: 14.5-14.7 ~3000rpm: 12.8 4000rpm: 12.5-12.7 5000rpm: 12 6200++:11.7 Thanks!
-
Thank you Loren, like always a fine gentleman :)
-
yes i have them. today my tuner put another file in, hope that this time everything will be ok but a strange thing happen, after they install the file my fuel gauge was dead it was showing that i don't have fuel! this is the second time that it happens after they install a new file, first time the gauge went up and showing ok after i put gas. anybody can explain why? thanks!
-
is not this normal?!
-
Hi Loren, the errors are form the cats, I am running w/o cats and the who tuned my car seems that cannot bypass the cats :(
-
After I run hard the car I receive this errors : -P0430 -P0420 Should I be worried about this ? It seems that the tuner can't bypass the cats... how do you guys run? Does anybody know if there is any difference between the european ecu and US one? Is here someone from EU that runs w/o cats? It seems that they cannot "bypass" the O2 sensors from the ecu... Any help please!? Thanks!
-
for the F hose you don't need to remove the rear bumper but for the rest of hoses i don't know maybe this helps
-
What do you think guys will be the costs to repair this beautiful GT2, +/- ? http://suchen.mobile.de/fahrzeuge/details.html?lang=en&id=129874475&pageNumber=1&tabNumber=1 Thanks !

Recently I've modified my car with an cargraphic exhaust w/o cats and ecu, I would like to know from other guys running w/o cats if the smell of gas is very persistent/"hard" ?! I know that if you are running w/o cats the car makes a lot of "smoke" but it can be from the ecu too or not ?! And one more thing, can someone with a cargraphic exhaust put a pic with the car from behind bud from a lower position, thanks !
-
Yesterday it was a beautiful day cargraphic exhaust w/o cats and ecu by SKN are IN = ohh my god, pure sex/porn what do you what, it is incredible !!! The noise at idle is normal but over 3k rpm and maximum boost is 1.0bar at wot ! I wanted to ask you guys if 1.1-1.2bar is bad for the turbos or car ? Because I will receive another file with a max boost of 1.25 ( I believe ) but from what i understand steady it will be 1.1 !? Next week my DV's will arrive, and one more thing, should I change the plugs (the ones from the car are almost 2 years old and approximately 10-12k km) ? Thank you !
-
can you install the new dv's on the original "f" hose ?!?
-
depends, if you add an exhaust you can go to 500+hp
