If I ran this setup I most likely wouldn't even run the intercooler.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

anybody using one of these ? tempting even though the price push our cars in 996 TT territory very quickly.
it make little sense to add a turbo, unless you take into account the lower weight of the base 996

how is the kit protected from all road projections in the rear fender well ?
do you have something to enclose it ? if not these silicon pipe are under heavy stress there.
You do not want the system enclosed for efficiency purposes. The components are safe where they are located. The silicone hoses are very strong and hold up very well on the street as well as on the track.
Is it really ever a good idea to use high CR and low boost? The stock high CR M96 is just not a good candidate as is for TC'ing or SC'ing. Especially since its a marginal engine in stock form.
A better solution would be to install the correct pistons before TC'ing but by then your well into TT money.
A much better solution would be to sell the car and buy a TT. Now go ahead and tell me Im an idiot then I'll show you a link to similar thoughts from a "real expert".
This is a shame because it would be nice to improve the power of the rather anemic POS M96 platform.
KK, you're thinking 80's old school tech before the modern EFI engines with more sophisticated ECU tuning tech. While I agree it would be more optimal to start off with a closed/semi-closed deck low comp design in the first place. Starting off with a higher comp engine can yield both fuel efficiency and power.
I've seen it several times in all those Honduh fools that have done it and done it successfully for quite a few years now.
I think Bisi would disagree with you.
Also not really cool to shart on a vendor's thread that have had this proven kit on the market for quite some time. Talk to Markar on here if for his long term m96 specific experience with this and quit bench talking...
X2.
My last car I ran 35+psi and 10:1. It was awesome, never any issues with detonation. If I ran this setup I most likely wouldn't even run the intercooler.
Looks good TPC!
Factory 996 compression with this kit is a perfect match. There isn't an extreme amount of boost and they run strong. I did however go the route of dropping compression but also went with a much larger turbo and will push over 1bar boost.
If you maintain the car properly, it will last. We just had a 996 C4S with 138,xxx miles leave that has our turbo kit on it and the car runs great and pulls like a freight train!
So, this shows that 996 M96 motors can handle another 100 HP.
Obvious question comes after that. Why not get a $600 100HP nitrous kit, have it tuned for $400 and receive the same result?
Properly tuned nitrous system is just as safe as the turbo kit, and requires much less fabrication.
I have a kit laying around from my Acura, I might bolt it to 996 to see what it can do with 125 wet shot. Should be interesting.
Apples to oranges IMO. Nitrous requires refilling and not so instantaneous. Are you one of those guys that always has the bottle open or the solenoid on along with a thermostat with a heating blanket to make sure your bottle is always up to temp? This debate has gone on infinitely on every single forum and I hope we can put this to rest.
93octane daily driven. Extreme for some maybe, but I was mainly trying to say these motors should have no problem with 5psi and their current compression. As stated earlier this isn't the 80's. Cars have evolved and are capable on whole new levels now.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
