I's been a long time I wanted to see Ugraded turbos on a Merc V12TT.
I discussed the subject many times with V12Godspeed and Jay.
May I ask in what the upgrade consists of ??
Is that a new compressor wheel housing + compressor Wheel bolted on the Stock Exhaust manifold/turbine wheel housing
I'm aware that on The MB V12 TT the Exhaust gas manifold and turbine wheel housing are casted in one single part.
Maybe you don't want to explain it in details,I'll understand.
Any additional informations are welcome mister!!!

Great I have two billet 6765s and wanting to get a 65 but now your tempting me to do the less sensible thing and mod the 600. I always wondered how the trans would hold up to serious power.

DCMETRO22Z:
Hopefully this will go well. Many unkowns on this project. Even the injectors have been sent out for bench testing, since Bosch will not release specs on oem parts.
V12Godspeed:
Pushing the envelope is fun until it tears. You are right about flogging a dead horse whos limits have been reached a looooong time ago...as in all the v12 "bolt-ons". No Guts No Glory.
Reservoir getting "re-engineered" and upgrading the upgraded cold air charge system 
This is a complex project with many unknowns. Even engine and trans mounts will have higher loads. What needs upgrading will be a work in progress. No part will survive xxxxhp for long. In fact look into whats happening with UGRs TT 1000+hp Gallardos upgraded trannys!! The actual gear tooth tips are getting shaved off, amongst other issues. Nothing lasts long with these horsepower numbers. Something breaks every 1000 miles or so until the platform has been around for many years and the weak points have revealed themselves. Anyway as u know thats part of the fun...if thats how you get your fix.

Good luck for pushing the boundries of the 65 platform, this car should be a good match for UGR cars, my buddy has a TT gallardo they're not that fast it's a pretty close race with my buddies SL65 w/ T65S chip they haven't gone above 170-180mph, once 170mph~ comes around the lambo starts to pull. The dyno figures of the lambo 912whp and torque is slipping my mind right now but if not mistaken it's in the 650-690wtq range it's also on low boost running twin gt30rs it is not a UGR kit it's a custom fabbed kit.
