I figure all you would need is the PTU (for the gearing) and then what would controll the true off traction on the 2014 PP's?

Seems like there should be some tuners out there offering conversion kits or something...


Anyone know more specifics on what would be needed part numbers and cost?

Final drive gear is in trans and while I have been told it's a very simple process to go from 2.77 to 3.17 as in it only requires 1 gear to be changed. But this requires removing the trans and disassembling. As for retro fitting PP PTU this do able as well but will require many hundred dollar bills. The benefits just don't warrant the cost. I would only consider such a modification if I trashed my trans then I would hunt for a PP cars trans from a wreck.

Well if it is one gear in the trans no PTU would be needed and after some research its input would change with the trans gearing...

Tires are the cheapest gear at that point for a track day.

I do still wonder about the true off traction controll, What change would allow this to happen?

Non pp have true traction off. It's the stability control that can't be turned off. On that note, members with pp cars say that the nanny kicks in regard less. So you can't drift your car like in the promos.

With mine I have been able to get it to drift a fair bit. That said I have found that my best launches at the track have it in traction control in sport mode. Not truly off, this is more or less traction off on non pp cars. Either way I think I have turned it completely off maybe a dozen times since I have had the car. Your not missing much.
