We were using errrr............. GT-45's running at 2.4 BAR and doing a photo-shoot at a beach nearby. We were just getting warmed up, gunning the throttle to 9000 RPM's for effect, exhaust at full song and just as the rev-limiter kicked in we sort of hit the point of no-return... below:
2.4Bar, so hot will be....everywhere.
it is nice one , and it is some how hard to believe with all do respect SpeedYellow but 2.4bar G40 stock internals 3.6 on 997 !!

These rims are the best looking on the TT. Who manufactures them or where can i get them for my TT ? just curious if they would affect performance and handling in a negative way ?

For the amount of money you'd pay to get a custom setup using any Garret turbo, why not just get an "off the shelf" kit like the EVOMS 700? I mean, after you buy the turbos, you're going to need tuning and support. Those labor hours are going to add up fast.
In my opinion I'd stick with a tested and proven kit that you KNOW works, and that you can get support for in the event that you have any issues.
Like someone said earlier, sure maybe in a few years there will be tons of tuners offering custom solutions for the 997TT, but when you can get 700hp from a reliable proven tuner already, why not?
Just my 2 cents

thank you for your advice.
The problem is that there is no 700Ps kit with VTG turbines!!! I won't use vtg anymore.
I spoke today with one guy from this forum, hi is from Sweden, he told my that one of his friends bought 997 tt from USA with kit from tuner name xxxx, and of course European car with ecu and exhaust was faster.
I'm thinking about garrats gt 28/71r. I will be fine with real 630Ps with nice spooling.

There are several tuners out there with kits making a real 700hp with VTG turbos....just look at the EVT-700 kit....

yes we talk about this and I heard from people here that US tuners are the best.
I saw on their pages that there is kit 600HP with standard vtg turbines.
I'm asking why there is no tuner in europe that can offer 600PS with standard vtg turbines???!!!!!
The absolutely max for standard ones is 550PS.
Yes the European tuners are offering 600PS kit also, but turbines are modified.!!!
So what is so great about US tuners and what European tuners don't know??
Yes you can probably reach 650 Ps but you need to modify heads and cams.
Lets cut this talk and focus please on best garretts we can use.
