Have these turbos ever been fitted to a Panamera? I couldn't find any evidence online.

Thanks. It sounds like the ultimate bolt-on conversion, especially as all those cars have good, strong gearboxes. I assume upgraded intercoolers, intakes, exhaust, and custom ECU & TCU tune are required. Are there any other required upgrades, like plugs, injectors, fuel pumps etc? Thanks Nick

This is an interesting option. Since this is a hot-inside-V engine, can these turbos be replaced without having to remove the engine? Thanks, Nick

OK thanks. I presume it does need bigger throttle bodies in order to reach 1kbhp? The stock ones are pretty small.

Oh - I found the answer here all along. Ouch. https://tteglobal.com/audi/s6/c7-4.0t-fsi/415/mrc-rs6-s6-c7-intercooler-upgrade Does that IC upgrade have larger throttle bodies?

This is very interesting. What other mods are needed to reach 1000 bhp? Intercooler? Thanks, Nick

I know most people perform turbo tuning with bolt-on modifications like intake, turbo, intercooler & exhaust etc for good reason. But does anyone use traditional, internal methods like big valves, ported heads etc? How do they get on? Thanks, Nick

Understood. I was just wondering if the turbo rating took the type of engine into account, or is it just a function of the turbos in isolation - inducer diameter, mass flow capacity etc? So are the TTE1000 turbos comparable to a pair of turbos that would give 500bhp in a 4 or 5 cylinder car...

This is about double the power of a four or five cylinder tuned engine. In simple terms, how do each of these turbos compare with one of the Golf or RS3 turbos? Thanks, Nick

That's a deeply impressive engine. Sounds great too. What are the mods? Nick

Hi Si, Been wondering about this for a while - can you elaborate on that comment? JE seem to have a decent reputation. Have you had a bad experience with them? Can you recommend other alternatives? Is there a better place to discuss this? Cheers, Nick

524 lb-ft at 2.0 bar? Seriously? That's 710 Nm from 2 litres, that's off the scale! Nick

That's a lot of power for modest mods, but looks like the torque is reined-in. Can you confirm whether it has: Stock gearbox? Stock injectors? Stock LPFP? Thanks, Nick

Audi RS3: 5 cylinder 2.5 litre twin cam four valve single turbo 160 bhp/litre stock 200 bhp/litre remapped 250 bhp/litre upgraded Audi RS6 C6: 10 cylinder 5.0 litre quad cam four valve twin turbo 116 bhp/litre stock 150 bhp/litre remapped 200 bhp/litre upgraded? How do the stock and upgrade...

Yes indeed, but has anybody done that with pump fuel and no spray? A very fast ten-year old car is a hobby, not just transport, and I'm looking for another challenge. I avoid complication for the sake of it, but charge cooling has some fundamental advantages: The IC can be optimised for cooling...

I'm assuming I would need customised charge coolers, customised heat exchangers, customised air filters and maybe oil & water pipes. That much power would need serious cooling. Nick

I'm interested in using these turbos in a slightly different installation. Even upgraded intercoolers seem to have limited flow and cooling capacity for these blowers, so I'm looking at charge cooling instead, with custom coolers on top of the engine. Would it be possible to configure the...
