Bored of Your Porsche 997 Carrera Power?
We have some amazing news if you are bored with the horsepower of your 997 Porsche Carrera 05-08. The VF Engineering Supercharger kit for the Carrera now has a new LOW price exclusively from Vivid Racing for orders placed through today till 11/1/12. View the VF Supercharger Porsche Kits Here and Add To Cart then redeem coupon code NEWVF to see the new low price.
Having used all forced induction systems on the market for the Porsche 911 Carrera, including our own designed turbo kit, the VF Engineering supercharger system is hands does the best upgrade you can get. If you are starting your mod process, continue reading. If you have already added mods, the only thing you need to retain is your Exhaust System. So, what are the first things people tell you to buy? Exhaust, Headers, Intake, ECU Flash. Right there that is spending just over $4000. Add in a plenum and you have just spent about $5000 without installation. Here is the thing... The VF Engineering supercharger adds in a true 150HP gain realized on a stock 997 Carrera. All those mods are not cumulative. So you might, maybe, gain a total of 40-50 wheel horsepower!
So what do you get from VF Engineering for your 911 Carrera?![](http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/wm.php/images/VF475_2.jpg)
Back when I had a 996 Carrera, I used a supercharger that was a roots style. The car made a solid 100whp and felt good, but whined like crazy. (Watch Here) It was fun, but we moved on to the 996 Turbo. A year ago we decided to create a turbo kit for the 996 and 997 to put a quality, power producing kit on the market that had the best fitment and tuning. We did, but soon realized the installation became issues with shops because of the complexity of the parts. So as a partner with VF Engineering, we choose to focus on their product as the installation, performance, and quality could not be replicated.
Over the past year, we have sold 24 supercharger kits for the 911. The best part about it, no need for after care. The kits and tuning are flawless. Though, we personally offer top level support to our customers and installation shops that need assistance. With full detailed pictured instructions and more then 500 supercharger kits sold globally since the inception of the 996 kit, VF's full engineering approach to the supercharger kit is of OEM quality.
Wanting a supercharger kit for my E90 BMW M3, I did not want to have the same experience I did with my 996. So I took the chance and put a VF620 kit on my car. No noise, super linear, and made literally, no BS, to the wheels 162rwhp! Read article here.
As a VF Engineering product user, and Porsche fanatic, I can say convincingly that for the normally aspirated Porsche 911 Carrera, there is no better money spent for horsepower and reliability then putting a VF Engineering Supercharger Kit on!

Thinking about this. I inquired on your turbo kit today (not sure if this is John).
Questions - does the "Porsche OEM GT3 Front Radiator for air to water intercooler" work in conjunction with the Tiptronic cooler or does it replace it? Headers and/or 200 cell cats required? What's the average HP gain on a 3.6L?

No this is Dan. John told me about your call. We are not doing the Turbo Kits at this time. Plus we have not done a Tiptronic anyways. VF Engineering has done many TIP cars. So as far as fitment and function, no issues there. The center radiator is retain and the kit plumbs into it.

thank you NorthVan!
unbalanced - yes the kit will fit on your 4.0L. The tuning part is not an issue. The kit cannot be further discounted, sorry.

Why is this kit superior to the turbo kit? Are you referring to the TPC turbo kit?
I was planning on adding the TPC turbo this winter, but I have some hessitation. A Carrera 4S Turbo kind of sounds like a 997TT imitation. But a 4S Supercharged is unique and interresting. Please compare the SC and TPC turbo products.

I believe in comparison, both running 6PSI, the TPC turbo has a greater output with 520 hp and 450lb/ft of torque, versus VF-E's supercharger with 475 hp and 370 lb/ft of torque.
Vivid Racing had a turbo kit with comparable numbers but I recently learned that was placed on hold and on the back burner. There were several things that impressed me about their kit, and it's too bad it's not available at this time. The one thing they did that TPC Racing DID NOT, was to retain the crash bar. I called TPC last week and they confirmed this. They stated it's something they may redesign for future use. For me safety is FIRST. Removing the crash bar is serious business not only from a safety concern, but also from potential damage and serious risk if ever hit your insurance coverage will likely deny it.
I think there's some things you can do to improve the "output". I know with my E46 M3 that was supercharged, although not by VF-E, was very impressive to drive and a total BEAST. I can only imagine with the Carrera how much it'll transform the car.
This is something I'll likely get in the near future. I also want the GT3 conversion center exhaust and this works with it whereas the turbo wouldn't have.

Super Adjuster - DynoJet numbers and real world numbers are to totally different things. I have dynoed independently all products. I will be happy to give my personal experience with all products to you via phone. 4809663040 x222
Gonz - We could do the turbo kit, but would require your car here, alot of time, custom dyno tuning, etc. I/We prefer to sell a PROVEN quality product that will be simple for you/techs to install and give you the huge power increase you want.

I was not aware of the crash bar issue. I don't want to derail this thread, so I will post further questions in my FI thread.
