- laser radar detector (front and back) installed by prior owner
Engine & exhaust:
- the X50 engine is absolutely fantastic in stock version (450 hp). However on June 2023 (at 29,200 miles), after many years of running stock, I looked looked for a bit more excitement and upgraded:
- the ECU a with Softronic tune (+ 90 hp, $1,580; link: [url=https://www.softronicsoftware.com/996-turbo-gt2-performance-software/]https://www.softronicsoftware.com/996-turbo-gt2-performance-software/ and added a BMC filter
- and Carnewal exhaust (+ 17 hp); $4,607; link: http://www.carnewal.com/products/996Turbo/p96216/996Turbo-GT2-Carnewal-GT-Exhaust). The Carnewal exhaust for the 996TT gives a nice flat 6 sound, a typical Porsche growl. It looks just like stock on the outside but on the inside, the internals are modified and the stock catalytic convertors have been replaced by two HJS 100 cell high flow sport cats. It makes the car a bit louder on idle and low rpm, there is a little increase on higher rpm. The result is a deeper sound with no reasonable, and it is not overly loud or anti-social.
In my mind this was the best combination to unleash more power from the car (currently running around 560 hp) while remaining reasonable, and trying to match the exhaust note to an air-cooled 911, as opposed to completely changing the line and having a non Porsche exhaust note.
Upgrades are easily removable if desired

Other:

Test drives possible upon proof of funds.
Let me know any questions
