Question about N/A 996 to TT 996
I've searched and found nothing.
How much power would I get if I where to do a TT set up on a 996 911 Carrera. I want big numbers like over 550HP. Any advice and realist number are helpful.

Depends what you put on it for turbo's, intercoolers, software, ect. I would expect you wouldnt get a whole lot before blowing up the engine.
It would be MUCH cheaper, MUCH more reliable, and MUCH more powerful if you built or bought an already built 996TT. There was a 600HP 996tt for sale last week for 34k in California. You couldnt think about building a fuctional NA 996 with that kind of power for twice that.
Where abouts in New Orleans are you? You drive a 996?

Inquire about their SINGLE after-market turbo for the N/A 996. It's nearing final release.

Yeah, I agree with the above posters about being realistic about what you can pull out of N/A 996. I'm also looking into FI for my 996 and looking at several options. IIRC, IMA has a twin turbo kit, but not sure if that kit will produce what you are looking for. As Doug mentioned, TPC seems to be finalizing their single turbo kit, and I have been following aznevoviii's thread in 997 section about his results with that kit. I believe he ended up with ~450whp on pump gas, iirc. That's still a little off from what you are looking for, but I am definitely liking what aznevoviii has to say about the TPC kit. Still waiting on finalization of both of these kits before I make decision.

It really would be cheaper and MUCH more reliable to get a Turbo rather than trying to add a turbo to a NA car. By the time you (or your friend) pay for the modifications, you could have gotten a Turbo for the same cost.

I told him he was crazy. He thought it would be like putting a turbo on an N/A car like a GTO are some thing like that.
