it's funny how most tuners will suggest more go fast mods rather than the trans cooler.. the reason its funny is most of em happen to do zf rebuilds.

 

I agree with murdok above...endless money pits indeed.... at least they are fun.

OK, I have some more concrete suggestion from the performance dealer here, see below.

 

Labour

1.50 LABOUR [WORKSHOP] INSTALL INJ/ REGAP PLUGS $177.27
1.00 LABOUR [WORKSHOP] INSTALL EXHAUST $118.18
4.00 DYNO TIME $472.72

GASKET TURBO OIL RIN $12.15
GASKET TURBO OIL RIN BA $6.91

MOUNT N GAUGE WINDSHIELD SUCTION $54.55
CUSTOM TUNE $359.09

 

The dealer mentioned that the list here would be circa 450 rwkw, the total cost is $7,300. I didn't plan on going that far but maybe it is just where I would have gone eventually (not satisfied with stage 1 / 1.5 as per member messaging :) ).

How is 450 rwkw as a street car or is this 'over the top' ?

450rwkw is not something you're going to get with $7k, unfortunately... but that list is about right for that price.

Turbo needs to have a X next to the GT.

Exhaust dump to tip is needed

Cooler and piping upgrade?

 

Buddy a 450rwkw ZF is a beast of a car, though to have a reliable one?? costs double the quoted prices u have and some more on top of that again.

 

@JETURBO could probably get u the right parts needed at very good prices, cause #worldwidetunarep.

 

But yeah that mod list is good for maybe 450rw (HP) then heat soak kicks in.

450rwkw on the street is fun, but since you won't get that for 7.3K read this thread

Little FG turbo maxed out on e85 with a decent intercooler will keep you happy for a while

This is important for all to understand and so understated.
