Parr Cayman S Turbo
- Thread starter tscaptain
- Start date
Mmmmm. Exactly. Its taken me 8 years to really get to know my bolide, road and track. Now this comes along. There was a yellow one recently which I had a job getting by, on a "power" track no less. All because of the roadholding . Would I be able to handle the wifely derision?? Going to get a wet towel.

Excellent, so it's turning the existing purely-cosmetic central well in the bumper into a functional piece of the car, I like it [The Parr conversion includes an additional centrally mounted front radiator which feeds the turbo intercooler.
I hope it is ducted from the central radiator, it's just so much more aesthetically pleasing if it's actually performing a useful function!As for the bonnet vent ... it's a cosmetic option. At least that's how Evo magazine's write-up describes it.
It's in the "Driven" section of issue #137, but it doesn't seem to be online (yet?)Is there a link for this article

Strange - so the turbo is in the back and the intercooler is in the front? That is alot of volume to pressurise when the turbo comes on. Turbo charged engines do tend to want to run hotter so maybe there is an extra engine coolant rad up front.ORIGINAL: slapshot The Parr conversion includes an additional centrally mounted front radiator which feeds the turbo intercooler.
