5- Prototech X-Chamber exhaust ( HE SAW HUGE DIFFERENCE MOVING FROM 200CELL MILLTEK TO CATLESS PROTOTECH ) but i would recommend u to go with SPI CATLESS exhaust system $3850
6- airfilter $150 maybe
Total: $11,500
0-60 high 2's
60-130 6.6-6.8sec
125-187.5 13.4sec
0-187.5 in 22-23sec
</td> </tr> </tbody></table>
I'm sorry. Am I reading this right?
You're telling us that for $11,500 you can build a 997TT with bolt ons that runs 0-300KPH faster than a RT12?

Folks-
I know this is a dumb question to ask - like they say, if you want to modify a car like the 997 TT, you shouldn't have to ask about reliability.
I am considering upgrading my ~550 bhp 2007 TT to the full AWE 750 hp(race gas) kit. I have modified 911 turbos in the past with no problems, and the kit does not involve changing any of the internal components.
I am just interested in any good or bad experiences from folks who have modded to their turbos to high horsepower.
Thanks in advance!

Can you provide me a link to a vbox tracing that shows a bolt on $11,500 kit running a sub 25 second 0-300?

Yes I know what the GT3 engine looks like.
I'm simply pointing out what is shown on the porsche.com website. Your condescending rhetoric is not appreciated.

VTG's allow around 640-650 hp MAX. You should use custom turbo's for more.
