Need advice please
Hello Board Members,
i found a very clean 2004 996 Turbo Manual Transmission with 17,000 Miles, the Following Mods are installed in the car:
1) Sports suspension.
2) K-24/26 Turbo
3) ECU Flash
4) Full exhaust system with muffler and headers
5) Sport intercoolers
6) Air Intake
7) Air Filter
8) Racing Clutch
with the above mentioned Mods the car was rated at around 575 to 580 HP,
now i am buying the car but without Mods # 1 # 2 # 5 since the owner have sold them out separatley and installed back the factory stock parts ( turbo, intercoolers and suspension)
My questions are:
1) what would you rate the engine power (horsepower) after removal of the three above mentioned Mods ( #1, #2 & #5)?
2) will the engine get damaged after removal of the above mentioned Mods (#1,#2 & #5)and going to stock since the engine was used to a higher power?
Hence: since mods 1, 2 & 5 were replaced with the stock parts the car was never used it was parked for like 2 months until this date with the batteries being disconnected, the car was never abused or raced very clean.
your feed back would be most appreciated.

losing the big turbo (IMHO) was like taking way an X-50 option. Without the exhaust and turbos, you've lost 50-60 hp. A difference you would notice if you had driven a lot with and then removed. I doubt that it would reduce the joy of having the car - it's still going to be a "big dog" - and you can always pick those parts up on ebay as more people dump their TTs
