We are looking forward to going out and pushing the bar a bit further on the fastest 991 TT MPH to date. The way the performance of the platform is evolving i'm sure any record will last all of 2 seconds. :D However it's definitely a blast realizing how much has been accomplished with our beloved TTs.

Huge salute from me to any and all who own one!

Yeah :D

I was gonna post this up. By just looking at the turbos it would be hard to tell if someone was sandbagging. For an event like this it's too hard to police the rules. This way everyone can just be up front with their mods. Look forward to some fun runs. 991 still bone stock for now but getting an ethanol tune for it. Targeting e30. Will be beta but will get some good data. Maybe turn it up on the 997.2 as it would be quite something to see a factory stock turbo car hit 170. Got my light track wheels on it for less rolling resistance/Unsprung weight. See you soon.

Thx brotha...they are GMG design. 9 inch front and 12 rear. running 235's in the front and 305's in the rear but they can easily accommodate 245 front and 325 rear. I can't seem to launch with these as good as the stock heavier centerlocks which but since everyone seems fixated on trap speed, these should give me a little more top speed.

Thx gents...I'm not used to the red wheels with the yellow calipers...I'm told it's a Porsche "thing" but all I see is McDonalds. hilarious The car needed something more bling. Not sure red is the solution but I can always get them powercoated/painted later. Chris are you going to join us?!?!?!?! Would be awesome. They are r888 tires by the way. This is a pic with 245/325 Michelins which looks better:

Nice wheel/tire combo ;)

Oh and btw if your 997.2 hit 170 in the event for sure will be the first car to check if is has stock turbos hilarious

EcpChris, There is a database for the half mile event from wannagofast.com. just go to there site and look under results.
When and where is the next shift sector event? Seems like I need to come out and run the TTS.

Thx webcar.

I think there is no doubt the factory stock 997.2 turbos are capable of 170. They are capable of a lot....including breaking my R888's loose on ramp-up on the GIAC mustang dyno yesterday :eek:
