Sold my Twin today!

Well gang, the ride has been fun. Like all good things they must come to an end and in the spirit of going faster and doing it better than before I have sold my twin and bought another Speed Yellow Twin, but a 997 this time. My Son and I will be flying to the windy city to pick it up on Wed. It is bitter sweet, let me tell you. To see it roll away today about crushed me.

What is planned, well first things first. Gotta tear the motor down to see what it is made of! From there, we will know how much HP to shove in this thing. I am looking forward to the new journey ahead.

Thanks guys. While I may be in a new TT I am still not going anywhere. Like the 930s, 965s, 993TT you will still be part of the information, support and products I provide all the turbo marques. You don’t go away, you just add it to the ever piling list of cars to keep up with I think we make develop and make as much product for the 930s as we do for the 996TTs!

Congrats. Looking forward to the impressions!

While you're at it, maybe you can develop a MAF graft from the 997TT to the 996TT?
