Video of Modified Evo vs. Stock 996TTx50
SubscribeThat's Yusuf, One of the Chi town Boy's. Very Quick Car.
Ahhh yes, back in the day...
Not surprised at all by the Evo.
Having raced with the 4G63 powerplants in Talons for many years, I can tell you that they can put out a LOT of power. Crazy what kind of boost the bottom ends can withstand.
OT: Here's a good clip of John Shepherd's Talon *WITH* AWD running in the 7.70's @ 190mph+. Hell, they can run in the 9's and still be perfectly streetable...

Apologies for the hijack, all this brings back some good memories...

Ahhh I read about your car awhile back. Very very mean aircooled indeed. Maybe one of the reason that inspired my 3.8L 993TT built.

Why?....there is such a small difference in speed but one is driving one of the ugliest cars known to mankind and one is driving something that is ballsout hot, a great daily driver, weighs so much more and is damn near just as fast. Pissed? I wouldn't be in the slightest. I've seen Civic's that would roll all over that Evo in the same type of race....but at the end of the day, its still a Civic.Originally Posted by Zippy
The guy in the X50 must be pissed!
There's more to a car than just speed. Now, would I mind having one of those Evo's modded like that to play around with? heck no, give me one to play with. Do I want to take one out for a spirited drive then on to dinner? Uhmmmm, NO.

You don't need 2 gt45s to make that power.Originally Posted by Tito
A 3.8L 993TT built, I could love to have that, please tell me that you have 2 GT 45s in there and that you are making 1200hp !Please
I was thinking 2 gt37rs, still would be streetable and full spool @ 3,400 rpm's

Slapping on big TBs is the easy part. Keeping the heads from lifting at that level is rather a challenge.

I know that has been a huge issue with that set up but then again I dont understand why things like that only happen in the Porsche World.
