GT2. Lighter, less parasitic drivetrain loss.

I assume you are talking 996GT2. The 997tt has a few things going for it. One is much better turbos with VTG, much fatter torque curve. But the GT2 has the weight advantage. The difference between the two is 0.1 seconds from what I found. 11.9 for the GT2 and 12 flat for the 997tt. However, both can be bettered I am sure. The K24 car reaches peak torque around 3500-3600 rpm, the VTG car reaches peak torque around 2900 rpm. So from a roll, I might give it to the 997tt. it would be close however.

here is a video of a roll. I think they are close enough that any mistake by either is a loss.

The stock fuel system on the 997's are better. The 010 997TTs no longer have the racing bred GT1 block, so they are not going to handle as much power as the 996 or 06-09 997's.

The 997 has better lines and rails. It also has twin intake pumps.

Not sure why you guys find that funny unless you thought the systems where the same (most likely)

Maybe so, but the new one also has PDK and it blasts the 1/4 at 11 flat and 128 mph, pretty much stomping everything before it including the 997GT2. The TurboS is bound to hit 10's in the quarter with PDK. I wonder if they will make a PDK GT2....

Maybe, but the new engine is not the product of racing like the old Gt1....the old GT1 was basically a race motor that was mass produced. The new engine was meant for the masses from day 1.

Yes it is great for the average person, but it will not likely ever produce 700 plus reliably at the wheels like the GT1 does.

If I want paddle shifting I can drive my M3
