My New To Me 997.1 Turbo! EVT 700
Hey All,
I'm Justin, a long time purist! Finally driving one of my bucket list cars. Last Sunday I purchased this 997 Turbo which had some very tasteful and powerful mods! I'll let the pictures do the talking, but I'm very excited to finally be a part of the Porsche community! Just took her out on some canyon with fellow San Diego car buddies yesterday!
Factory options:
-220 Axle-Differential Lock Rear
-Adaptive Sport Seats
-GT Silver Metallic paint
-342 Heated Front Seats
-635 Parking Assist System
-640 Sport Chrono Package Turbo
Notable modifications:
- EVT700 kit (Recently retuned by Mitch from Cobb tuning, now on accessport. He sent an updated map to run better for our AMAZING 91 octane. I'm happy with the 20 PSI file for now!) BIG shoutout to Mitch. Boy does that guy know P-Cars. For all of your tuning needs, Mitch from Cobb knows his stuff.
- MillTek exhaust system
- TechArt PASM suspension WITH DSC suspension computer
- SharkWerks pin kit, and boost hoses
- SACHS 2.5 clutch upgrade with pressure plate
- IPD plenum and OEM GT2 carbon fiber intake
Thanks everyone! Now just have to change my user name!

Congrats man!! I bought my first Porsche too a few weeks ago and I agree with you 100% Absolutely a bucket list car! The 997's are amazing and Mitch is a great guy!
My car had a tune and the first thing I did was a Cobb with a Map from Mitch. Car drove so much better and pulled so much harder than previous tune.

Congrats, you found quite a turbo with those mods already done! Very nice. I hate the OEM Turbo chrome/shiny wheels, but I really like how they look powdercoated in charcoal. Great to hear the comments on the Cobb tune. That will be my next mod.
I miss my e92 M3 often... but the 997 makes me smile more

I also came from a 2011 E92 M3 and miss it, but I love the Turbo more!
Very sweet car M3 Guy!! You got all those mods for an amazing price!
You should get a new front lip, get the Aero front lip replica from e-bay, they can't be beat for about 120$ if I remember correctly.
