Well, we are finally on the home stretch of a very special project and wanted to share one of the photos of many to come with details of those involved with the build. Enjoy!
This is my customer’s car. It is a full build from scratch, literally. 6 figures in total.Wow, gorgeous.
how much did the whole conversion set you back?
Thank you sir! Lot of time into this one!Beautiful!

Pur RS08 20/21 for street wear, 19” all around for track720s wheels ?
Looks great
SO MANY QUESTIONS...
PS - I love the Black & Gold theme, especially the fade on the wheels - I've never seen that before - LOVE IT!
Thank you, I came up with the design of black fading to the gold so that the gold would not overpower the overall look. Keep it flowing
Q1 - Why move the turbos up top? Are those Borg Warner turbos that much bigger that they physically would not fit down below? And are the exhaust manifolds OEM 12C manifold just reworked?
Yes, they are huge and they will also now be more accessible, that other added benefit is that you hear so much more now, think P1! The manifold is 3D printed in Billet aluminum and the exhaust manifold is also 3D printed in Inconel
Q2- Can you reveal more pictures of how the air inlet tubing flows into the turbo plumbing? for instance, does this setup still utilize the stock airboxes?
Custom airbuses used, will see about getting pics of the air inlet lines, all customs of course
Q3 - Did this car start life as a 12C? (It's 2013 Spider perhaps?)
2014 12C
Q4 - Can you share pics of the custom "high rise" wing hydraulic actuator setup. That looks very trick.
stock actuator setup, 3D printed uprights, like the High Sport P11
Q4 - Last Question! Can you share a source for the solid Carbon Fiber door sill covers? Those look amazing vs. the boring carpet the 12C and 650S came with.
Those are OEM believe it or not, super rare but I was able to source a set for this build.
Q5- Please tell us more about the center air vent modification? Is it some sort of boost gauge?
Yes, custom boost gauge for positive, negative PSI who you can toggle through the settings via two buttons on the unit, air still flows though it as well, we like that!
