NinjaBoy, I recently modified my car nothing to much just the ecu and exhaust w/o cats, boost 1.1bar, I wanted to ask you if i should be worried about the tip at this level of power.
I am not racing my car everyday, we don't have in romania any circuit or a drag strip so lets say that from time to time i will race someone from a rolling start but not to often !

Thanks !

sorry for the offtopic !

 

Actually 1.1 bar is ok for a tip transmission. But If u change the turbos to bigger ones or further more modifications then its best to do ur tranny upgrade......My car was on 1.1 with stock tranny but when i modified it later on , my tranny couldnt handle the power even at 1.1bar. Have a look on Youtube, protomotive 996tt in bahrain and see the tranny when it changes to the 3rd gear and notice the slipping.

 

any new updates?

 

it still look like the tranny is slipping a little bit between 143 - 152 km.

 

After or before MKB upgrade??

 

in this video.. I don't know if it has the upgrade or not.

 

In the video of Protomotive 996tt in Bahrain, the tranny was not upgraded. But if u look at this, this was running on 1.4 bar with tranny upgrade. Notice the difference when shifting to from 3rd to 4th. That lag between 143 - 150 has nothing to do with the tranny. Its coz of the furl ignition. Remember i was running it on pump gas ( low octane ) silly me..

 

Impressive performance for sure. Well done & drive safely.
