New Owner of 02' 996TT

I recently bought a used 996TT non X50 with 19k miles, this is my second Porsche and my first turbo. I know that the car is mildly modified but am unsure on if it is flashed.

It has a K&N filter and a FabSpeed exhaust.

When reading the oem bar/pressure reading in 3rd gear WOT...It states 0.9-1.1 bar. Does that mean it's flashed...increased power? In doing research on the site stock should be around 0.6-0.8. How accurate is this reading? How many WHP should I have?

Welcome to the board Junior, wish you the best of luck with your car. Yes your car is already Flashed. It is time to take the camera out and photograph your car, so we board members can enjoy it as well...

A flashed/tuned car should have forged diverters because of the increased amount and duration of boost. You will have no problems other than some bruised knuckles. (It’s tight in there.)

With that sort of boost it's been flashed for sure.

Do you guys think I need coilovers because I have H & R spings on stock shocks. The inner of the rear tires look like thier rubbing on WOT. But wow love the extra boost!

Welcome to 6speed bro. Congrats on the mods. Wish you saw my 996TT parts. I could have given you the Red Y pipe, Red boost hose, DV's, turbo plenum under $1k. If you are interested in Giac flash from Stage IV EVOMS, let me know.
