It's all in the way you set the car up. I've seen cars with the same exact setups be 2 seconds apart in the quarter. Also keep in mind in most cases what someone maxes out at on the dyno, isn't what they are always racing at, and atmospheric and temperature changes things exponentially with a turbo charged car. It's only a matter of time before the traction control in standalones is up to par with high HP turbo charged vehicles, there are many ways to address this with gear dependent boost maps, wheel speed sensors, pulling timing, etc to get traction. I don't expect anyone to run 1,000hp in 1st gear, but towards the backdoor in 3/4/5 you will see the difference in power with ease.
I would be happy to take a ride in an 800+hp 996.

After all markski's and other issues with broken drivetrain parts, I dont see where this is headed. Spending 100k on the motor to ge 1k whp is going to cost you more and more as the TT is not a good drag car. You see supras and vipers and vettes running 6,7 and 8 sec 1/4 miles. I think thats a tall order for the TT. But where there's a will there's a way.

After a long conversation with Switzer I have a new look on what can be done. Injectors was a major issue till the standalone came along. I want to try 1200cc injector and see what kind of power can be made. You all saw the drivability of switzers tunes. Come on its worth a try no?

Markski is Todd using an AEM Injector Driver at all? What are your thoughts on it? http://www.aempower.com/ViewCategory.aspx?CategoryID=83

The one big advantage that the Porsche has is rear engine. For highway roll ons you don't have the ability to do a burn out in a waterbox and the rear engine platform is a huge advantage in terms of putting down power.
All the guys I know w/ 1K rwhp front engine cars actually don't do roll ons at full boost. They usually run around 850 rwhp...unless they are in the mood to die.

I have plenty of fuel delivery left.. and I only have 72lbs. injectors. However, I have a lot more done to the fuel system then most. I am not sure why you would need to go to 1200 cc injectors with drivers... maybe you want to run 30 psi? I really do not know the engineering end of it other then what Todd used to share with me. I can easily put down 900rwhp on my fuel system if I turn it up to 1.6 bars or so... Todd made 875 rwhp at 1.52 bars. 871 rwhp on another dyno...

That my friend is a million dollar question.... there is no one point at which it happens... it really is more complicated then just PSI.... it really depends on the set up... fuel, boost, HP, etc...

30 psi on a stock block- I don't know. Heck, we are seeing heads lift under 1.5 bars let alone 2 bar. Apparently the head studs seem to be backing out...
I doubt any car owner will go that far unless he has total disregard for his motor. We can talk online all we want... but it's been 8 years since the first 996TT left the plant and we still are fighting the most mundane issues like heads lifting at 21 psi. Heck, I can do it right now... no big deal.... I just need $25K incase I blow it. LOL
