New 958 Turbo Owner (Pics) and a few questions
I just purchased a 2011 Cayenne Turbo with 18k miles this weekend and absolutely love it!! I currently own a 2008 Z06 fully built that makes 1000+ rwhp on 93 pump and a 2009 CTS V with bolt ons making 560 rwhp and now this beast. The car has all of the options, PCCB, quad zone climate control, factory 21" wheels that were redone in all gloss black, pano roof, etc. MSRP was right at $144k. My owners all have Porsches and after driving them for extended weekends I had to get one and am very happy with the decision. I was using my CTS V to DD that is much faster then this but I have been doing some research to get same more power out of her and have come out with these to start 1st round.
Downpipes
Secondary Cat Delete
BMC Filters
IPD Intake
My tuner thinks we should see 90-100 crank hp with these upgrades which is a solid bang for the buck in my opinion. I plan on having Paul with IAP in Sterling VA do the install/dyno/tune
Any other mods that I should consider doing the first round? Anyone have experience with upgraded turbos on the 958? I have a very tough time leaving a car alone and they usually snow ball in to monster big HP builds so I should start getting an idea of how far the stock motors have been pushed and to what level of HP.
I also plan on dropping it to get rid of as much wheel gap as possible and have seen 2 answers on the 958 on here and 6 speed online
Lowering links

H&R air ride lowering control module.

I would like to just throw a set of lowering links on it to get the 1.5" drop but do not want to do anything that can cause premature suspension wear or issues. If it is required to run the link and the module then I will just get both but am curious if any 958 owners just install the links, align the wheels and drive it.
The car is at one of my vendors shops getting tinted and having the lights smoked, once I pick it up today I will update with new pics. Everything will be black on the car minus the factory running boards. I am either going to have those done in black or remove them before we wrap it in black brushed metal 3M 1080 series film. Thanks for viewing and please give me any input about the 958 because this is a completely new world to me.

nice stable! I have a 2010 V, no dyno numbers but runs solid 10.80's.
I'm sure once you get the pepper where you want it you will enjoy it that much more. post up some pics of the progress.
are you on ctsvowners by chance? lol

I'm getting the gts body kit on mine next month and will have some extra black painted fender flares. You want to buy them? They are already covered in Xpel clear bra.
FYI, I've heard the ride is beat if you drop it with the links or electronically.

Sorry just noticed the response, I have a sedan, not sure of RWHP, but it's guaranteed over 600 with the 1/4 mile time. I'll look for you over there lol.

Welcome Aboard! Nice whip man that's a real nice 958. I bought my 09 CTTS in fall 2014 and wanted to do the IPD Plenum. I contacted a reseller and they couldn't fulfill the order, I then went direct to IPD and was told the machining to create the IPD plenum was extremly expensive and would ruin 60-70% of the plenums made so they stopped making them. Not sure if this was specific to the 957 or if it was in general for Cayenne Plenums. If you find someone that carries them, please share and let me know. I was unsuccessful in getting an IPD plenum for my 957 and was bummed out.
Nice Cayenne!

I appreciate in the info on the links, the last thing I want to do is ruin the ride. I love the way it feels in sport mode.

Congratulations, great looking CTT! Secondary cat delete is worth it but the BMC filters are not (JMO). We're neighbors and BTW you'll really like the heated windshield especially on days like today. Hope to see you around.

You & I both need to spend $100 on black lugs bolts.
