Evo install is about 15-17 hours.

The EVO supercharger has yielded some high horsepower cars! I prefer the RUF for its OEM looks and install, but the price and installation in Texas (out of state for me) make it less desirable.

I agree. Since you have a C4S, it probably would be better to go up to the turbo.
Now if you had a C2S, it would be a different story since the only 2WD turbo available from Porsche is the GT2. Supercharging a C2S seems pretty justified to me since the price gap between a factory car with comparable horsepower is so much more.

If any of you want to 'ride' in a SCd car, you can watch my videos I posted on here of 7 or so laps at VIR. May help. It's an EVO, by the way. It's stronger than a 997 GT3 in the straights, but not much. They have better gearing for the track.
