Back In A Porsche! 997 GT2 9k Miles :)

Super Excited to be back in a P-Car! Just picked up a 997 GT2. The car currently has a full Champion VTG kit. I'm probably going to go 3.8 with Xona turbos for a fun street build. I will definitely keep you guys posted here on what I do, like I did on my prior record setting 997 turbo. See pics below in the mean time.

No chance you’ll stop at a 3.8L after that last insane build! Looking forward to your updates!

Oh man am I excited to see what a 997 GT2 is capable of becoming! I'm loving the stock version's balance of power and poise. The GT2 is definitely my favorite modern 911.




I added a little Italian to my garage

9ff converted a GT2 to AWD a couple years ago when the owner overpowered the RWD. Think 9ff also converted some of their TT-GT3s to AWD for the same reason.

It would be great to see some current car dyno runs just to see what you are dealing with, and then the grand finally dyno runs whereby the GT2 destroys a dyno. I was wondering if your Porsche dealership in the photo has a dyno.
