Fun for your 3.6L Supercharged Guys!

I always knew the 3.6L cars were quick with the EVO Super Charger on them but I'm suprised as to how fast in real life... I spoke to Todd@EVO over the weekend and he himself (trust me he's no drag racer!) took his 3.6L 997 Super Charged car to a local Arizona drag strip (bear in mind the alitutude stunts mph and times considerably) and the car did a 12.1 @ 119. Very impressive numbers indeed. Considering he was driving and that it was in Arizona (the launches weren't super hard either so there's room for imrovement) at altitude I think it's safe to say that car really can go 11s!

I have raced before in Phx in my s2k and the strips are about 1,000 feet above sea level. Tucson is at 3,000 feet in case you were wondering.

Sweet. Thanks for the info. Sharky, how does that compare to a stock Turbo?

Finally! That's the number most of us have been waiting to hear ever since we first heard about the SC development project.

Great trap speed.

For real bragging rights, give the car to an experienced drag racer, kiss goodbye to the clutch, and see what she'll do when driven hard.

I'd guess a copy of the timeslip from one mid-high 11 second pass would boost sales tremendously.

(hee hee. Geddit? 'boost sales'. Sometimes I'm so sharp, I cut myself)

Most car mags ran 12.2-12.4 for the 911 Turbo. THe mph is in the 115 range I believe. So it certainly beats a stock turbo...

I thought so too Seeing as it was Todd's own car and that he's more into the road course stuf and not big on drag racing I know he took it easy on the launches.... Give the car to me or another drag racer and we'll dump the living crap outta the clutch and hopefully pull 1.7 60 foots and some high 11s (11.7/11.6)

Well I know I owe Jean and company some of those myself! I know some places but they're not all that close.. Basically on the way to the Sac drag strip... I really do not want any hint or sign of any traffic when going way past 100

Was the 997 stock except for the SC, or were there

to apples if you are comparing it to a stock turbo.

Wow, the first concrete documented results of what the EVO SC'ed package will do. Good stuff. I wonder why they didn't do the same test for their 996 packages!? (Although it would seem to me the results should be identical if not slightly faster for the 996 3.6 being they're a lil' lighter...)

What "other" supporting mods were done to this 997? Or was it completely stock expect for the SC kit?

PS: Anyone here run their 996TT's on THAT same track? (stock or modified) At 1300+ feet I know cars suffer worst than the "correction factor" suggest sometimes. Plus, we don't know what the traction is like on that track unless we have other 996's to compare it with.

Not bad at all eh? Well I just don't think most Porsche guys are "drag" racers you know? We're all road course guys I guess... I think the 3.6L could be a little better you are right since it's lighter. The car had a Fabspeed exhaust on it but nothing else (PSS9s).
