Gentlemen.......
This can all be easily settled at a place like Willow Springs/Buttonwillow or CA Speedway.
There are a ton of track events out there...
Not to be a party pooper but why stoop to the level of 17 year old kids .....??
I would be more than happy to take anyone up on a few hot laps
Anytime....
Just my .02...

Guys i really hate getting in the way here buy i think i have too...as much as it's funny to hear those comments, they should be given a little merit...
Yes, obviously they are going to be slightly exaggerated, but you must note that 335is can now push upwards of 400BHP TO THE WHEELS proven here: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=93865
I think that's not that far from what a 997tt puts down...
Of course, this will not be good in the long run, as you're raping the hell out of your turbos w/ the excess boost, but still...
Now the vishnu is adaptable, as you may already know...and can be set anywhere from low to 100% extra boost (predetermined max, obviously), and everyone can set it according to their wishes. Thus, 2 335is running vishnu V2s will perform differently depending on their tuning setup...so maybe you guys have seen the slow ones.
So what I'm trying to get at is:
1- yes the 997tt is in a different league
2- yes it's little faster
3- but you can't deny the 335i V2 performances...and it just reminds you that if something's got boost, it can go much faster!

The ultimate Porsche Turbo killers are those EVOs...I went up against one that was putting down around 600rwhp and my car looked like it was going in slow motion...

It still comes down to gearing and powerband. Still not buying it and that was 98 octane boosted at 100% before the good ole LimpMode kicks in.

Agreed and no one's denying the potential and speed on the V2 335I GewoW brings up some good points, but the highest trap is 113 so far on a modded 335I, no where near a stock 997TT's trap, I think it's very reasonable to question such claims, but they have a vid which shows this I guess, not posted yet, but we shall see.

Where have you gotten that trap speed from?
Reason is...on http://www.dragtimes.com they have some 110s with people running about +40-50 whp...
I'm sure the 380-400 whp proceded 335s can get >113 no?

Exactly, I'm not here to pick a fight...just to tell those that think this claim is ludicrous that it isn't so much...

Just got a ride in a buddys 997 TT. No way in HELL will any 335 take any 997 turbo... Unless the turbos on the 335 are replaced I don't see it happening on stock turbos with any tuning. The driver pushed some button to let over boost happen for 15 seconds or something. HOLY CRAP all 4 wheels broke loose. It's crazy fast.
