Steve,

Any word on this kit?

Looks like they still haven't finished it??

I called Nick and offered my V6, but never heard back from them.

Unfortunately half off the kit isn't great compensation for having my fairly expensive Porsche for 4-6 weeks.

Hey Everyone!!

Just got off the phone with Nick who's the head of R&D at VF Engineering.

Theyv'e finished work on developement of a supercharger for the V8 Cayenne and are offering it as a bolt on kit.

Also...for the V6 Cayenne...they're looking for an owner of a V6 near the Anaheim area or anywhere in CA for that matter who's willing to let them use your Cayenne for a month to tweak the supercharger for it before releasing it as a kit. Nick said you'd get an awesome deal for the supercharger in your Cayenne and if you can stomach renting a car for a few weeks or if you have other wheels to drive they'd definately make it worth your while.

For the V6, the supercharger is 6psi, est HP gain approx 80-90 HP bringing the total to around 330 hp or so for the V6. Also good torque increase. Est. cost is $5000 for the V6.

Go to VF-engineering.com and check on the kit for the Touareg V6 for more specs...they're both very similar.

If interested e-mail Nick at Nik@vf-engineering.com.

Steve,

Thankyou for your email contact and phone call this morning. As

discussed, we are looking for a Cayenne V6 to be left with us for a

month to allow us to adjust our duct work for the throttle body which is

located differently to the Treg. You may be aware that the Cayenne V6

has the Treg engine but just a different manifold.

We would also retune software on our 4wd dyno and offer the test car

customer a 50% discount on the kit and there would be no labor charge.

We are currently finishing up on our V8 kit and are keen to complete the

V6 kit, but need a test car.

Thanks

Nik Saran

GL,

I have to agree with you about their poor customer service. I get few answers, and many excuses. They even forgot to send hardware with the pipe!

For those thinking about Fabspeed....well, I like the fact that I bypassed the 2nd cats, but the pipe is just a touch small, and I'm left with a noisy leak at the c-clamp which I'll have to pay a muffler guy to get rid of. I also don't like the fact that there are no mounting brackets on the bypass. I realize that the pipe doesn't weigh near as much, but I don't like the thing just swingin in the breeze, and will probably pay somone to make a custom bracket.

Here's an update as of Feb. 2007.

I finally got off my keister and took the car to an exhaust shop. It turns out that replacing the hanger is VERY important. Otherwise you risk damage to the (very expensive) flexible downtube connecting to the header. It took the guy about 20min. and he only charged me $50. In addition to support this also allowed the pipes to come closer together. He put a little sealant at the joint before tightening the c-clamp. Now the annoying rattle is almost completely gone.

I just installed the Fabspeed 2ndary cat bypass pipe on my 2006 V6. The performance is great, but I have a nasty little rattle with hard accleration. This improves after the system warms up, but never dissappears entirely. I did notice some small exhauste leakage at the clamp. Could this be causing the noise?

Has anyone else had this problem?

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,

Medtech

:cursing:

Buy an Eclipse!

I have to agree with Loren. Care Care Specialties is great.

P21S and Lexol for me!!

How about just puttting in an Eclipse AVN5435. You get Nav, DVD, CD, XM, and aux in. Then you can throw that P.O.S. Becker in the trash where it belongs.

Becker North America

Phone mute/Aux audio-in/Tel audio-in/Radio Removal keys in one kit is, BNA-116.276 ($16.40)

To order call (888) 423-3537 x1209

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Actually, it turns out that the part number is, BNA-13.19. Tell them you want to hook up an iPod and they'll know what part you want.

I've seen a number of CHEAP aftermarket chips that claim to give more HP by tricking the IAT sensor. I assume these things are probably no good, but I was wondering if other members have had any experience with them. What do you think?

Aaron

:drive:

Not the stereo guy but that is why I thought there was the aux-in adapter from Becker for the 220 radio.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Tool Pants,

That looks like it should be it!!

Does the dealer carry this?

Pardon my ignorance, but why does is have 3 RCAs?

Does anyone know how to connect into the back of the stock radio? <_<

I see the diagram with the C2 & C3 sockets for the CD changer, but it doesn't break down the individual slots. I'd like to wire a relay input from an RCA Jack.

Thanks

I am told by the dealer that the ballasts aren't strong enough to power HID bulbs. In order to do this you would have to use the ballast from a Litronics headlight.
