From the sublime to the mundane....Now that mom and baby are doing well, I shall quickly draw my attention to my other 'baby'.

I've had the TT for almost a year and half and have enjoyed every single minute of it (well, except for that Bilstein fiasco...but I digress...). I've managed to keep her stock power-wise, always wondering what a little more power to an already phenomenal car would be like....well....I'm going full monte. Car is in the hands of the EVOMS crew in Tempe to get some 'tweaks'. Contacted Ian with the original intention of getting the 650 kit. Somehow, I was convinced to invest in the 700/720R kit......wait a sec....775? What the?!!?!? (yes, Ian, I truly hate you)

The 700/720R kit includes
• EVOMSit ECU Chip Switch - Utilizes "On The Fly Switching" with 2 X EPROMS
• EVOMS / SRE Stage 3 Clutch
• EVOMS High Flow VTG Turbochargers w/ Billet Compressor Wheels
• EVOMS ClubSport 44.5mm Exhaust Headers
• EVOMS ClubSport Intercoolers (charge coolers) w/ Silicone Boost Hoses
• EVOMS High Flow Silicone Turbocharger Air Inlet Ducts
• EVOMS Billet Turbocharger Boost Recirculation Valves
• Gaskets, Hardware & Installation Components

I already have a BBI Stage III exhaust with 200 cell cats which I plan on keeping. I may lose a touch of power running the cats, but I'm sure I won't notice.

The 775 upgrade includes

EVOMS ClubSport High Flow Silicone Turbo Air Inlet Ducts
EVOMS ClubSport HED Ignition Coils w/ Denso Platinum Spark Plugs
Bosch 83mm Throttle Body with Larger Intake Plenum
EVOMS Lightweight Billet Underdrive Crank Pulley
EVOMS EVT775 Software Calibration with Optional “Dual Mode” Chip Switch*
Porsche / EVOMS Vacuum Line Update Kit
Porsche Fuel Filter

In addition, getting stainless steel brake lines and a desperately needed brake fluid flush for more stopping power as well as the the GT2 slave cylinder conversion, which I have been waffling over for the last year. Trans is coming out anyway...so, I thought what the heck

Aside from the BBI Stage III exhaust, power is stock...for now.

Either myself, or perhaps Ian, can keep the thread updated with the progress. Hope to get her back later this month....perfect temps in the desert for low IAT's

 

Love these build threads and glad you kept the best looking wheels on the TT!

 

I think my comment should be "no comment..."

Haha. Ed, congratulations on the conversion. You will love every minute of it.

I will keep everyone posted on the progress.

Cheers,
Ian

 

Da-da-da-dammmmnnn!! Nice work, bro!!

 

Damn 775 eh?! Gonna be sick!

* Installed EVOMS Clubsport Intercoolers into OEM Cages
* Pulled Transmission in preparation for Clutch and GT2 Master/Slave Conversion
* Installed EVOMS Stage 3 Clutch
