Vivid Racing is proud to release its new VR750 horsepower kit for the Porsche 997 Turbo. This kit was developed as the intermediate level to our VR630 and VR800 performance kits. The VR750 features a variety of quality, tested racing products to give you a reliable, daily drivable, and high output performance vehicle. As tested here in our Gilbert, Arizona facility. The VR750 turbo kit put out a very strong 616awhp and 632ft/lbs of torque with the Mustang Dyno correction factor. Our test vehicle was a 2007 Porsche 997 Turbo Tiptronic. The car reached its final number using VP109 octane unleaded fuel at 1.3bar of boost. As tested on pump gas, the car still made an impressive 557 awhp and 600ft/lbs of torque. With an ambient temperature of 92F in our dyno room, cooler temperatures and a 6speed transmission can only mean more horsepower!
To further the testing of our VR750 turbo kit, we immediately sent it off to run in the 2009 Gumball 3000 rally from LA to Miami. With 7 days of hard driving, 2 track events including a road course and drag strip, as well as high speed runs, this was an excellent test to put the car through beyond its dyno numbers. As vehicle owner Caleb Garrett stated, “The huge low end torque increase over my previous mods was very noticeable. When the turbos hit the car was a rocket pulling hard all the way to redline.” By retaining the VTG turbo setup, we are able to maintain fast spool up for those wanting a strong streetable setup. By not eliminating the VTG design, there is no need for changing oil lines, coolant lines, or other components found on a standard Garrett based turbocharger. Each turbo is disassembled and rebuilt with a larger turbo wheel that flows almost 40cfm more then the stock units. The end result is a brand new modified turbocharger.
In order to achieve this performance increase, it is necessary have proper tuning of the Bosch ECU. Vivid Racing has been a partner of VRTuned who has been tuning ECUs and building Porsche engines for nearly 30 years. The VRTuned tuning procedure is far more complex then others global changes. By adjusting the timing, air/fuel ratio, and boost, VRTuned pulls out the potential of your car in a safe, reliable, and check engine light free world.
With any larger turbo package, it is necessary to upgrade additional components to maximize the performance of the vehicle. Vivid Racing has partnered with Agency Power who produces some of the best quality, race tested components on the market for the Porsche turbo vehicle. We include the performance exhaust system, VTG racing headers, high flow intercoolers, silicone boost hoses, and our powerful carbon fiber cold air intake kit. These products in combination with the turbos and ECU flash help launch your vehicle to the next level.
For those owners with a 6speed manual transmission on the Porsche Turbo, we recommend upgrading your Clutch to the Clutch Masters Stage 3 Unit as well. This full disk is designed to hold up to 800 horsepower with an OEM feel. The easy engagement comes from Clutch Masters fiber tough material and steel backing disk which is built from OEM Sachs clutch components. This clutch will hold all the power you need on the street, strip, or track.
