whats up guys, I participated in the royal flush rally and decided to join the forum. I drive a 2007 Cayman S, here are some pics taken by other members this past sunday

setting up the car for the run

**Andresito360** · 11-09-2010 07:51 AM

I saw a lot of familiar faces I dont think anyone from my old days in audizine recognized me since I have change somewhat drastically but I used to drive this:

**DaveD** · 11-09-2010 08:06 AM

Welcome! I was standing next to that silver E46 in the pic you put up of yourself and then rode shotgun in it for the first 3 legs. Your car sounds great man!

**Joey** · 11-09-2010 08:51 AM

Welcome! I loved your car at the run. We will hopefully have a nice user base of Porsche members as soon as i find the right car and start on some DIY content. Glad to have you here

**Andresito360** · 11-09-2010 09:32 AM

what kind of pcar are you looking for? I might be able to help you with some DIY as I usually document everything I do to my car.. for example I have video while hacking the front bumper for the GT3 grill lol that was one scary moment haha

**sakimano** · 11-09-2010 10:06 AM

there was a car for sale that looked just like that in my neighbourhood

a) it was a 99 or 00 (had the old badge and the body colour mirrors)
b) it was pretty much stock inside and out...no intercooler or anything, and stock seats
c) it had those same wheels and was also santorin

I wanted to buy it, because it looked so good, and sat there on sale forever.

the guy that bought it from me is actually selling it right now on vwvortex, he lives in PA oh and it is a 2001 1.8t. Are you sure they were the same wheels? because those are rare and not made for audi

Those OZ wheels...

Keskin KT1's are the closest match I think, wanted to run those on my 'rado at one point.

**AndyGs4** · 11-09-2010 10:52 AM

Gorgeous Cayman! Welcome to EA

**Andresito360** · 11-09-2010 10:55 AM

the closest you can get is the OZ futuras, these are Hamman PGs which were made by OZ. I love OZ wheels, not overpriced and can take a beating like no other

Picking up either a 996 turbo or GT3

not 'sure'...close enough from this distance.

I'll see if I have a pic somewhere....

It was a B5 S4.

**mbgt72** · 11-09-2010 01:06 PM

gorgeous car! I have a soft spot for caymans and yours is wonderful. I also really like that plexiglass cover over the engine bay, I've never seen that done before but that looks GREAT!

**Andresito360** · 11-09-2010 01:34 PM

yeah it gives it a nice look, here it is at night

**beemercer** · 11-09-2010 01:41 PM

^That's pretty sweet

**03b6avant** · 11-09-2010 05:51 PM

welcome, beautiful car

**Andresito360** · 05-09-2011 10:24 AM

I need to update this

my old cayman is gone

but there is a new bad ass toy in the garage, flew out to cali to buy it and it is now here in NJ

**Joey** · 05-09-2011 10:29 AM

I have been waiting for the update man! cmon

**Andresito360** · 05-09-2011 11:21 AM

this thing is too much fun! let's just say powerwise it has enough horsepower to be a semi truck haha

**JeST** · 05-09-2011 03:07 PM

Sorry to see the cayman like that. What happened?

The 6tt looks fkin sexxy!

**pavlo1994** · 05-09-2011 03:43 PM

+1 on the more info about the cayman, and i would love to know whats in the trunk of the new toy.

**Andresito360** · 05-09-2011 04:03 PM

I was a bit too confident on the cayman, lost control on a turn with the traction control off and was not able to recoup from it. The insurance decided it was cheaper to total it than to fix it even though the frame was not damaged.

The 996TT has a lot of goodies,
GT28 turbos
Giac 650 tune (I need the 700 to get more power out of the car)
Cargraphic exhaust, 100 cell cats, and headers
Plenun and larger throtle body
FVD intakes piping
custom wastegates
custom fuel pump
RWD conversion
GT2 clutch
JIC cross coilovers
and lots more

the car is pretty solid as it is but I need to upgrade the tune, get 70lb injectors and a Hitachi MAF and the car will be running at its full potential

**JeST** · 05-09-2011 04:52 PM

Sweet! Rwhp numbers somewhere in the 550 range? Enjoy the car in good health!

**03b6avant** · 05-09-2011 05:07 PM

nice new ride!

**Andresito360** · 05-09-2011 05:27 PM

Higher

but I want 700whp+ once I get it to 100% running condition

**JeST** · 05-09-2011 05:35 PM

Heh, I was being conservative with the 650 tune and the assoc. mods

Looking forward to seeing the car at the next rally

**Andresito360** · 05-09-2011 05:49 PM

The 650 tune is for k24 turbos and does about 580 rwd with a few extra mods other than the kit. My car pretty much has the Evoms 700 kit but with a few extra things minus tune injectors and maf... Hopefully I can accomplish my goal

**JeST** · 05-09-2011 06:39 PM

Here's to reaching the goal

**Andresito360** · 05-09-2011 08:41 PM

btw I might be joining you guys this saturday

**Joey** · 05-10-2011 07:12 AM

So much win with the 6tt! I really don't know where you can use half of that hp on the road... I am having a very hard time keeping out of trouble in the GT3.

**Andresito360** · 05-10-2011 12:25 PM

haha tell me about it, I'll probably start doing some sort of racing this summer to use the power. I always felt the cayman lacked power so now I am over compansating for it lol the good thing is the car could be daily driven if I wanted to since it is quite docile at low boost

**a4spoolin** · 05-12-2011 10:22 PM

Dude that new turbo has to be sick, just stock those things rip so with the 28s it mist be a blast. I hope to pick up a 996 in a year or two

**Andresito360** · 05-13-2011 01:07 PM

^^ yeah is so much fun I just got my first ticket lol I love the car.. like a friend of mine says "boost is addicting"

**pattrick02** · 05-13-2011 02:22 PM

wow....what a trade....love the turbo!
