Upgraded Turbos- 9 second car

What can I do to my 996 turbo that will NOT blow my engine but I can run all day at the track and pull between 9 and 10 seconds all day? Thanks

Get a 700+ HP kit and learn to drive.... (no disrepect intended)

These cars are not natural drag champs. But can be caned into place by a good driver.

You are going to need more than a 700 Kit! You will need maybe an 800++++ or more likley a 900+ kit to run 9's! Get ready to spend some serious $$$

9s aren't realistic if you want to beat it all day as well.

Just duplicate VRAlexander's setup from Protomotive to run 9's... well, learn to drag like him too... I figure it'll probably cost you about $100K for the motor and turbo setup.

That's quite a car collection. In your sig line, although I can't tell which are owned and which are "soon to own," (for example the "soon to own" 997 - supercharged is pretty specific in its list of mods for a car you don't own yet. But it must be one of the "soon to own"'s, because it says "soon to own" both above it and below it! Do you have a 997 like this already picked out, or is that a list of what you plan to do to it when you get it? And above it, on the first line, you list a separate 997. With a 997tt on the way to boot! Sweet! You must love those 997s . . .)

Anyway, you don't list a 996tt in your sig line, so I didn't realize you have one of those too. Nice. What mods have you done to it already, and what kind of times have you put down so far? That will help us know what you need to do to it further to achieve your ambitious goals.
