TPC Turbo kit - 421 RWHP !

I clicked on TPC's banner above.

THATS IMPRESSIVE, at just 5.5 psi. Just what the doctor ordered.

Would be like 480 HP, assuming 12% loss, correct?

I would estimate like 3.4 sec 0-60 and flat 11 on the quarte mile. Any take?

Thats equal or better than a GT2 ? Damn..

I already sent TCP my inquire, besides sorting out overseas instalation issues, will need to know what kind of guarantee they will be offering and when will the kit be ready for shipping.

I am also waiting on KmanS to post more data/info on this. Perhaps he will be the first one to jump in?

Anyone else considering? Group buy?

It is impressive, that is for sure. You should check this thread out from our news section: http://www.caymanclub.net/news-items...exclusive.html

Also, K-Man S has a couple of podcasts with the owner that you should listen to;

GT3 is putting dow 380 to the wheels assuming that we use 15% loss and is running a 12 flat quarter mile. So im not so sure about an 11 flat quarter

TPC and SOftronic

Softronic has just started to work with TPC in the binary mapping of their Turbo kit. While Softronic will provide the highest standards in programming TPC will be selling and installing these kits.


Best,
Softronic Team
