Sorry I haven't been able to respond to this thread much the last two days, but I've been very busy with military training.

I just want to thank everyone that's responded in this thread for the kind words, and to let you know that I'll post some acceleration numbers soon.

 

Looking forward to your test runs.

 

Scott, congratulations on the build and completion of this monster, props to Protomotive as well, has there been anything worth updating us on?

Again congrats.

 

Hi...

Can you please tell ME (if its not a secret) how much time did it take to build this beast and how much money ???

I wanna buy used 996TT fromm states and build something simullar...

Does millage matter in this case, cuase you going to re-build the whole engine anyways right ???

 

one of the longest thread i've ever read, but definately learned quiet a lot, impressive build indeed, and thanks to others for the inputs as well.

 

Wow! Those are very nice stuffs Enjoy and thanks for sharing!

 

I guess I need to read everything and educate my self ???

Anyones know if with all this power I can still keep AWD ??? Of there stronger drive terrian, axles availible for 996TT ???

What about transmisson, does it needs to be re-inforced ???

I want to build AWD monster, which I can race on regular road from and dig and rolling starts...

Its must be very difficyult to launch such power car off the line...I have 550whp E55 and 1 gear rolling strat its very difficult to get traction...but the time its hook up other car get a jump...

 

Our cars are RWD only.... the diff will not hold....
Yes you need Axles. Tranny.... well its stock till it goes... so far so good...

Just want to say it was great reading through this and big congrats to you for attempting & sharing it.
Hope its all smiles from now on

p.s mike you old dog, stop been so power hungry you will starve your self with the waiting!

 

How does it hook up on reagular road ???

Can you launch the car fast oof the line with all this power ???

How around rolling start 1 or 2nd gear ???

Till what power range you can still keep AWD ???

Do you think on regular roads with crank 800+HP (if its possible to keep awd still with this power) and AWD the car would be able to launch much better and do better times ???

How much is tranny re-build and axels ???...

I dont want to wait till it fails...since no one would be able to fix it here...

What about gearing...did you change them...what is the best gearing with all that power ???

 

Hello my freind...you here as well...I want some FUN...getting bored with E55...You should jump the ship as well...

 

Buy an Evo.

You are comparing a twinscrew supercharged car to a turbo car. There is a HUGE difference in the way they launch. Max torque is made at different rpms.

 

Waiting To Here Markski Reply On The ? From Gt Rus . Thanks

 

Back to our regular scheduled program...

I ran Scott's car from a roll on the highway for fun (Mexico, just south of Houston).
With his new GT35r's he knew he could let me roll and then reel me in. He did just that.
When he hit 4th gear it was as if my passenger had thrown and anchor out his side of my Porsche. Those Garratts really build steam on a motor that can take some revs!!

Scott,

Your car runs very well and I heard you also put a serious "beat down" on the Ford GT
with a 3.3 whipple. (For those that do not know, the Ford GT with a 3.3 whipple will do
over 800 HP and did over 200 mph in the Texas Mile last year when I was there).

I answered his many questions on other threads he started...
his questions are so loaded that I can spend a month answering... and I don't have time.
He want's the best of both worlds.. a reliable car in Russia without any mechanical local support putting down 800rwhp or more that will not break down and launch liek a bandit while not braking axles or tranny and beat some of the most powerful P cars in the world... ( 9ff, ruf, enzo, ect).
good luck..
