"" this 3.9 vanquishes every GT3 flat six I’ve tried. Including the ones in the 997 GT3 Cup and RSR? In a word, yes —in part because they’re overshadowed by a sequential transmission that makes F1 noises and in part because they’re not built to be enjoyable — they’re built to be raced. The 3.9 feels RSR strong but more refined than the production 2010 GT3’s 3.8. Put simply, it’s the best normally-aspirated flat six I’ve tried. ""

Well done.You should be very proud of your achievement. My congratulations to you, gentlemen.

Great article, congratulations! Hopefully your phone will suddently get a little louder, though I'm sure it gets its exercise as it is, but this certainly can't hurt

Cheers slawek... We worked so hard on this project. It had to take a long time to R&D (baby steps if you will) and the goal posts were picked up and moved some but I really hope think it was worth it This car has weened me off of turbos
