Pros:
The car punches instantly with a tap of gas pedal, boost in INSTANT and STEADY all the way, 20-100 mph feels like nothing, Highly recommend to all 996/997 owners.
The numbers dont justify the power of this car. I am overall 110% happy with the result, their customer service is top notch, Mike the owner went every single aspect of the car, Tom the GM took care of the billing silky smooth, other crew members feel like family now.

Cons:.................

.... NOTHING!!!

Can not be happier than that. it sucks that I am stuck here at work, my car needs to be driven more often now!! (I put 3k in 1 year...... shame on me).

I am going to be at IMA meet tomorrow, see what their FI kit makes on 996's. I will update some pictures and video soon!
Where and when is the IMA meet?

So we are at ~$7500 for the kit. What is the typical installation cost? Can I have a local do it?

Very cool.

Thanks!

That is not the price for the system that is installed on Johns car. If you would like accurate pricing info please email us at info@tpcracing.net We do have many authorized installers. Please contact us for more details.

YAY I am not banned anymore!!

Ok it was real nice meeting everyone at IMA, great shop, great people, great cars, great food as well!

It has been exactly 100 miles since the turbo kit, I am very satisfied with its performance + reliability. Even Mike was not 100% finished with the tune, the car feels strong enough to eat stock or little modded 997TT ALIVE!!!

I am bring the car back to TPC on monday or tuesday to finish some fine tune at low RPM + idle. I did not have chance to take photos or videos since today was so freaking busy,
also had some issue.............
........ Long story short,
the car stopped in the middle of I-495 inner loop, no gas pedal, no ignition... I was like F*CK!!!!! TPC TPC TPC TPC!!!! HAHA and I called Mike, explained him the situation (great customer service right there, even on weekend), after a few examinations... guess what.... I ran out of GAS!!! haha I was having too much fun didnt even have chance to look at the gas gauge.. LOL I felt so dumb. Mike even offered me to get me a gas.
It was funny when Dominic (TPC Turbo Cayman) flies by me, and stopped, offered me gas.. it was a one lucky day for me!!!

sorry for long boring story, I hope you all enjoy ur weekend!!

Hey! :0 haha it definitely runs 110% better !
You, sir, are my lift saver from now on! (It was so scared from sitting in that lane with cars going 100 mph 2 ft away from me.. on the side.. haha I even got under the car looked and unplug + plugged TPMS sensor wires, no kidding i almost sh*i myself..... haha MAD props to you Dominic!)

edit: as a side note, I saw alot of nice cars on i-495.. I never pay that much attention to the cars driving on highway, I saw Farrari f-40, 2 GTRs, couple 997 + turbos, AND TPC TURBO'ed CAYMAN!! guess whos car that was..LOL)
