    Hi guys, I just got a 911 TT Porsche from a friend and I wish to upgrade the turbos. Since I always had BMW's and Ferrari I really dont know much about porsche. Where I can get some powerfull turbos upgrade for this 2001 turbo?

    Evosport have the K24 modified to 630+hp for $4,400 and Vividracing have the k24 Gt2 stock for $3,300.00. Do I really need the modified one when I can get some serious numbers with the stock GT2 K24? What do you guys think?

    I just got my turbos upgraded... believe me its freakin fast. Please make sure you upgrade the intercoolers too.
    My turbos were upgraded by DMS in UK. They also reprogrammed the ECU.

    I hsve owned a moded 39 Porsche's and had a 650hp 01 tt, first of all turn the damn thing into RWD (that was the first thing I did) then the stock diverter valves are crap, change them. After you do that, drive the car, if you do not like it after that, well if you have a good shop and deep pockets, PM me I'll tell you what to do next. The real trick is to have instant boost right to 1.2 bar, then it is either really fun or really dangerous depending upon your skill.

    Also look into;

    Kevin is great for advice on all levels and can custom tune for your application.

    The motors internals are supposed to be good for 700HP with the stock clutch limited to 500 or so.
    Dont forget to add lightness.

    I also had a DMS upgrade on my 997 Turbo. They travel all over the world and are highly commended by UK customers.

    Jeez Lung :eek:.

    And I thought the stage 1 remap was fast enough!

    Was the upgrade done in the UK or did someone come over to you?

    Nice one.

    I had Rob's brother-in-law come out to do mine, Darren I believe his name was.

    So what is the quoted BHP figure for your car now?
