welcome back indeed. Wow, almost a new car, you really lucked out.

As far as more power goes, E55 is right that you ALMOST can't get value out of more power but those few open straightaways where you can accelerate are more fun with bigger vtgs.

It'll be easy to keep this one bone stock, it's a DD. Plus, I have the 930 that's nasty, loud, impolite, fast, nannyless and bad to the bone.

Hey Chris, welcome back. Congrats on the car, enjoy it in the best of health.

If you are going V1 please add Jamers or you will get nabbed on LI. I keep getting laser warnings on the meadowbrook pkw and Northernstate pky. I am running the 9500ci and I am not suggesting you go that route I know you are a devout Valentine guy. If you wanted to check out the stealth install I had done just shoot me a PM.

All the best of luck with the new car. I love that you daily drive it. Wish I could.

The 997tt really is the last of its kind with the good gt1 engine g50 tranny.
I had a 993tt for a short time, but nostalgia aside it was slower in every catagory to my 997tt. I had to have another, tried tracking my old one down, guy wont sell...etc
So 7mos ago I started looking, the combo of adaptives, LSD, low miles, unmolested are almost impossible to find. I almost bought a couple, when thus popped, I had to have it.
Thanks to my brother, Doug for pushing me along!
