reminds me of the days in my RX7 turbo in Chicagoland,
crazy power difference with the colder air...

Gotta love this cold Fall Michigan air, add the GT700 package, pour in some Sunoco GT100 race gas and hold on to your hat!
Out of second gear, starting in a straight line I am not only spinning all four tires but actually getting slightly sideways! This thing is NUTS! I love it!

I enjoy your enthusiasm and most of your threads leave me with the urge to take a spin. Mine is nowhere near the hp of yours but it manages to leave a smile on my face every time I get in. Thanks for sharing!

I mentioned that in another post I have owned this car since new so over 5 years and it has 36,000 miles. I would usually be bored of a car by now but I just love this thing. It has been totally modified to exactlly what I like and God willing I will never sell it!

John D and Buddy, Same here.
this is my (4th 911 turbo, and 7th overall 911 Porsche).
With this new power level, suspension, seats, etc,
the car does everything at a very high level which keeps me
interested. (I still have alot to learn about track driving!)

Buddy you crazy ****... enjoy the car in good health!!!
There is no one that I know of who enjoys the turbo going sideways like you do... been a few years since I met you, hope all is well.

Yea, the MAF was dirty and a rear moton was blown out. At mid-ohio currently, there's quite a few 996tt's here. Me and a basically stock 996tt w/ r compounds were outrunning everything in the top non-instructor group. Pretty amazing what a highly skilled driver can make a stock 996tt do.
