Ok, we are back after a mandatory blog vacation issued by the boss! Oh wait, that was me and I really was just slacking. So time to stop slacking and post some of what’s been in the shop!
In normal iA fashion nothing should ever be left stock. In this case we take a 997S and [...]

For years ImagineAuto with my lead have been tuning turbos of many generations. Most of our major tuning in house has been on the various EFI systems installed from electromotive, Autronic to Motec. In years past we grouped with GIAC to help with program our TTs, Boxsters, 996s and so on. The biggest hurdle for [...]

Originally when we bought the 997TT in from Chicago there were little in the way of modifications available. We created some in the form of tuning, worked with other companies to build intakes, etc. The one thing that simply was not available while leaving the PASM in place was suspension modifications. Knowing that the car [...]
Custom gauge in a 997TT, sure why not.

What do you do when you have a dash of stock gauges that doesn’t lend its self to any space to do anything cool…As I love to say in other aspects of my life….create the space!! When I purchased my car it had to have the sport chrono in order to take advantage of the [...]

We have a very good customer that has sent various cars to us in the past. One of his priors was a very nice 91 965 that after 3 weeks of mods the car was truly to die for. As all things come to pass so did this car. No sooner than it sold I [...]
Continued 996TT motor build…the good stuff

Imagine you have built a very strong 996TT motor. All the things you have done in the past, knowing they work well. What happens if you make more power than you are suppose to? Imagine making 700+ AWHP on the dyno with the HP scale going up and up and all the sudden….well lets just [...]

Like anyone I was up bright and early to place the lower end of our monster 996TT motor together. Part of that process is placing the rods on the crankshaft. In most cases of factory rods engine-builders have been tightening rod bolts with a torque wrench and getting away with it. But in today’s high-performance [...]
89 930 EFI Conversion returns

I hate to see any car we have built get into the hands of people that do not fully understand or appreciate the workings of a converted CIS to EFI turbo Porsche. This car was based on a 89 930, we quickly stripped the motor out of it and converted it to a 3.4 twinplug, [...]

We had a chance this week to tear in to a 911 5 five speed trans with some issues going in to gear and clutch problems. After removing the engine and trans we found the friction surface of the clutch was wore down to the rivets we also noticed that the trans had been tore [...]

As we continue to move forward and bring the 993TT to its original glory and then some the parts keep coming in. While I will probably have to chance the configuration a little bit to accommodate the center outlet of the rear bumper. The design of the new Fabspeed system is phenomenal. What is most [...]
