Quote: 24/18 with a 5bar and exhaust is only a bit faster than the Z06. The TT needs a 40-50 hp advantage to run even with the Vette and a skilled driver which I have confirmed many times in Mexico. Now a 24/18 w/ all the goodies (dual pump/full fuel system, blow through intake, IC's etc.) will spank the Z06 hard.

Remember, the original question was about a basic 24/18 set up, not the full Monte.

But like I said, if you are doing all the supporting mods, might as well Go Gt30's.
I have ran several and had no problem with a stock Z06 with my K24's. Once you stated you need a skilled driver in the 996TT, that leaves me out.

Good point.

I figure I recently moved from a depreciating asset to at least one that retains value, and possibly appreciates.

However the basic 24/18 while fast is not really faster than a stock Z06. That is why I recommend to the OP that he go for one of the big boy set ups out of the box since that is likely where he will eventually want to be.



Hmmm, I would think 24/18 are for sure faster than a stock Z. Quicker would be questionable and it depends on the driver and lag time of the P car with 24s.

I have had some run ins with guys that can smack gears and with exhaust and tune still pulled a car out with 16/16s so I would very much believe a 24/18 P car would most certainly hold its own against a stock C6 Z.

Otherwise, driver?
