just curious, for the cost based on what you get would you not SC the car? Are you considering that as well? I have read a tone about people who have spent 3-5-6-7-10K+++ and been disapointed with what they have gotten in gains.... for a little more you can see a 80-100+hp gain with SC running at a relatively save level of boost. My plan after waranty is to go supercharged....... thoughts?

 

gaining HP is jsut half the fun, its about having fun with it. everytime i see the UPS truck turn on my street i have the biggest smile on my face, and oppening up the package is like a kid on christmas morning.
Also with me i like to do everything slowly and see my car progress, thats why i never get bored of it and theres always something on my mind that I want to add, and as far as the money, Ill spend like on average 500 - 1500 a year on mods which i think is nothing, and it should be nothing to anyone who has a porsche and wants to mod it.

 

Hi... The N/A motor just does not have cams and the port size to make 400 on the crank... Unless you are willing to spend big money and loose the varo cam, factory ECU,weld up your heads and block(4.0L), Up compression(race gas levels), Ti rods, crank work, and oil system rework. Thats just getting you started. I would bolt on and EVOMS S/C and be done. If that is not doing it then we can talk about more mods that help the S/C work better. The gt3 uses same block and clynders as the turbo. Th gt3 heads have about 30% more flow then the turbo. The cams are also more aggressive. They are said to make the same hp as a stock k16 996 turbo(415 crank). To sum this up I feel the S/C is the way to go. Keep your handling and feel but add the power!

I couldnt agree more - i was posting to point it out to the OP.....

 

I think my bone stock was dyno'd at 315-317 to the wheels. I would have to dig up the dyno sheet to see for sure, but I think it worked out to somewhere around 365-370 at the crank.

 

SC should come standard on all "S" models!

 

Has anyone added the EVOMS s/c to a 997 GT3 ? What kind of rwhp or rwtq could one expect ?

 

Hi....The GT3 is like the turbo motor so the S/C will not bolt on. There is always the option of putting twin turbos on....
