Ben/Mike/Amir getting any ideas??



even if it wasn't hennesey's whose reputation is considerably less than sterling, hell no.

btw, anyone really think they've done the R&D necessary to make a reliable product - or at least know it is?



I dont think they have. The presentation seems pretty slapdash to me. Isn't that picture of the red CGT a picture from Porsche? You think they would atleast have a picture of the kit to make it more believing. But, the numbers are amazing. Its mind boggling. If I had a CGT, I wouldn't dare hand it over to them. No way.



the numbers are horseschit as they were with gemballa and their abortion offer. both companies merely extrapolated out numbers based on power/weight, etc in the hopes of trolling for a sucker to offer up their CGT for molestation from these hacks. fwiw, the CGT motor was detuned from 800 hp "NA". i'm sure we'd all be amazed at what just the elimination of the pre and post cats (4 total!) would offer in the way of power increase and weight savings.



Ya, I don't think I would hand my Carrera GT over to any company. So far, no company has offered any kits or parts that seem to be worth it or have any validity to their statements. Seems like no one can improve what Porsche has created, and rightly so.

Also, due to the design of the chassis and engine compartment of the CGT, wouldn't it be a major operation just to install an aftermarket exhaust system? Seems like theres not much room to spare because the chassis 'wraps' around the engine.



no, a cat bypass would be easy. in fact there is a company in S. Cal who is stating they can do it while not triggering the check engine light and still passing CA smog. i'm tempted.
