So you only get peak torque output for 10seconds at a time? And what is up with peak torque @ 1950 rpm... whats the point of the turbos if they don't add torque up top?

Otherwise fantastic numbers... didn't expect the weight reduction.

 

Still to heavy.

 

I want to see a dyno so so so badly. I want to see how the torque curve ends up. The power range is more important to me than peak hp, but we'll see.

 

Thanks for posting! The weight savings is sure a nice bonus!

 

great read!

The 997turbo now sounds a little more promising

 

Looks very promising and thanks for the article.. Although im still now a fan of the wheels, front bumper or rear exhaust in the bumper, they don't look "clean" to me... It also should have had more weight reduction done, oh well, can't wait to see its actual road test

 

The looks are still a little off.
I'm convinced the camo is deceiving our eyes.

 

This is going to be one hell of a car. Who cares about the small jump in HP when it does 0-60 in 3.6 seconds, isnt that what matters guys?

 

I want to see 0-125mph. That is the improved performance I am after. Actually better yet, 60-160 would be nice.

 

No. Who gives a **** about 0-60. It's a not a drag car.

 

U kidding, 0-60mph doesn't mean **** even to drag cars! LOL...

 

For better or for worse, I certainly wouldn't mind having one

donated 997 TTs welcome

 

I just meant that it's really fast, and that's what matters.

 

The fact that it is lighter than the previous model is definately a step in the right direction. 473hp is definately not a bad place to "start" for a Turbo car that is going to be modded.

 

Hahahahah!!!!
