Any way to disconnect the front wheel drive
Is there any way to disconnect the front wheel drive from the 997TT. I was able to do this with my 993 TT.

Evolution Motorsports does this i think. Send Rod or Todd a pm. I'm sure they know what needs to be done.

Not sure it's feasible on a 997tt, completely different system than a 996 or 993tt.

Well there is a simple way to make the car run in rwd but it doesn't get rid of the weight of the front diff. You can just turn the PASM off and pull the hand brake up two clicks and the car reverts to RWD. Tried it the other day and it works.

I would never do this...That could end very badly...The car is going over 100mph and would hate to see a strap break!
