Thank your for that!

Odd that they didn't mention the market price of each... might have swung the conclusion even more toward 'our' cars. ;-)

Naw, I seriously doubt that. Unless it's a collector with serious money, a potential 991 turbo buyer will not be considering a 996 turbo as an alternative.

Thanks Because!

Does our car really have a 11.7:1 compression ratio??? I've seen 9.4:1. Good article, but really doesn't tell us anything we don't already know.

We have seen tons of amazing stuff from these 991's. But the 996TT still has my heart!

I had no idea our comp ratio was that high. That's crazy for a factory fi car.

And new ones have 710 torque?!

I find total911 often has errors like that.

710nm = 523lbft

That's what I thought I have seen before. Where did they get the 11.7:1 figure?

Their math on the hp difference isn't right either, at least not for the two cars they are using in this article.
