    Hi, I own a 2003 X50. Some say that the 2005 turbo S has the same power output as the mkII gt2 483bhp (but they still don't have the same clutch and transmission right ?). Since the engine of the 2003 x50 shoud be the same as the turbo S, is it possible the flash the ecu with the Gt2 file to get those 33 missing bhp ? Thank you.

    Thank you for your answer. As It's clearly impossible to access the underlaying part of the front compartment the only thing I can do is let drop some paint in the spare tire mounting hole... :-(

    Hi, I know that you will think that I'm crazy but I don't care... I can't help it... I hate rust and it's my biggest fear. When I removed the spare tire of my TT, I noticed that the screw that was maintaining it sratched the part of the body (is it the body ???) that you can see through the hole (the screw was tightened very strongly and it was touching the bottom). Can it rust down there ? What kind of metal is it made of ? Please excuse my horrible way of speaking and writing. Cheers from Switzerland.

    Hi, I's just curious... does the c4s aerokit rear spoiler fit the 996 TT ?
  5. Mendrax
    It works. Thank you very much !
  6. Mendrax
    Thank you very much RFM... I see the mufflers direct line but what grey valve (Electrovalve ???) ?? Could you please show me on the pict ?

    I don't get it. Isn't the factory-like PSE approved by authorities in Switzerland? I was at the TÜV here in Germany last week and when they fired up my car those engineers started laughing. They think it's funny that the PSE is legal but never really questioned the fact. I didn't even bother to switch on the speed cut-out since they don't testdrive it. Thorsten It SHOULD be...well it's a bit risky on a car that does not have factory installed PSE (furthermore on a 3.4). Someone had to remove his exhaust after a db level test... they do what they want at the SAN (TUV)...

    Hi, I own a 996 C2 3.4 with PSE installed also with the electical part (switch and so on...). I tried to invert the check valve but it doesn't work (the PSE is always ON)... :( Please help me... I live in Switzerland and I have a technical control at the SAN (DMV for you ???) this week... The car is very loud with PSE mode ON... so I have to start the car with PSE OFF.

    Thank you Loren, but I would prefer not to cut anything... is there an adapter (VW or Audi, etc...) ?

    Hi, I know this topic has been treated many times... sorry in advance but I did not found any answer to my 2 questions. I wanted to replace my old Becker cr21 with an Alpine 9881 but when I removed the Becker... what a surprise with the non ISO wiring (yellow connector). - How to go from this : to this : ? - What are those two cables (brown and blue) on the becker chassis ?
  11. Mendrax
    Thank you Loren !!! Well i wanted to paint the back of the seat and remove the map pocket but with those hooks... it will be ugly ! :P
  12. Mendrax
    Hi, Could somebody tell me how to remove the map pocket: Thank you
  13. Mendrax
    Thank you Kim I will check tomorrow ! Tell me if I am wrong but I dont think it is the connection between the dash switch and the relay as I doesn't even get quiet between 29 and 45 mph... Another thing is all was working perfectly... I don't think it's a short circuit as it happened 3 hours later ? Maybe it's the relay itself ?
  14. Mendrax
    Ok... I tested the 2 switches... everything was working perfectly, i was happy... and 3 hours later... nothing was working anymore... The switch on the dash still has the light working but the car is always loud... There is no vaccum leak. How to get the car quiet (is there a temporary solution as I use the car in town) ? What do I have to test ?
  15. Mendrax
    Many thanks !

    I would like to buy another grey/pink wire but Porsche doesn't sell it. What are the specs of this wire ?
  17. Mendrax
    If your plan is to simply interrupt the speed wire (pink/gray) with a switch, then you will have a situation in which your car is factory normal (quiet between 29-45) when the switch is 'on', and NOT quiet in this speed range when the switch is 'off'. The current is so light that the volt/ohm rating of the switch is not important. You need the R61 .... Single Pole, Single Throw (SPST) that is NOT momentary contact. Well I have the factory switch which allows to have the car quiet. I need another switch to be able to interrupt the speed wire.

    Hi, Instinctively that's what I did last night, many thanks Orient express ! As I am in Switzerland I have to keep the quiet mode between 29 and 45 mph (for inspections each tree years at the "Bureau des Autos" (DMV in your country)). So what I need to do is add a switch so I can have those solutions : - Always loud. - Always silent. or - Quiet between 29 and 45 mph - Always silent. I don't know what is the best solution for this... Is it possible to order a wire and a connector at Porsche (maybe there are some references)? I don't want to cut any original wire : I think i will disconnect the original wire and put another wire and connector on position 23 and connect them together on a switch like this one... : The only thing is I don't know what caracteristics the switch has to have...
  19. Mendrax
    Hi, I'm lost... Which cable (speedometer signal) is the one I have to remove to disable the speed cutout and how ?
  20. Mendrax
    Instructions are not the problem (I was just hopping that AMAG Switzerland would give me a guide in french). I just would like to have the confirmation that it is the grey electrical connector that needs the Audi/VW part 443.906.102.G (part that is not included in the PSE package and not mentionned in the instructions...) .
  21. Mendrax
    Hi, I just received the PSE kit... the 3 Y connectors and the 443.906.102.G part from the local Porsche dealer (that also sells Audi and VW cars). I did not receive any installation guide... but I will found one... Could somebody tell me where does the 443.906.102.G part go (maybe with a picture) ?
  22. Mendrax
    Well I really don't like my headlights because of the amber indicators... I would like to buy new halogen ones but with clear transparent indicators like those : and not like this one (that is clear but does not seem to be transparent)! :
  23. Mendrax
    Hi, What are the differencies between those headlights... some seem too have a white and an amber bulb in the indicator, some have two amber bulbs and in addition some seem to have almost transparent indicators and other don't...
  24. Mendrax
    Hi, Just wondering where I could find the best price for those rims (and what would it be)... Is there another manufacturer that sells them (like the Mille Miglia Cup1 or 2) ?
  25. Mendrax
    Does a 3.4 C2 with PSE sound like a C4s with PSE ?
