My 997TT is going under the knife :)

... because after all, 560 HP isn't near enough So, tomorrow I'm getting a 'baseline' dyno to see what the Protomotive ECU actually made on an otherwise-stock 997TT 6-speed, and then:

Tuesday: install RENNtech 997TT exhaust & high-flow cats
Later this week: re-dyno
Friday: pull turbos & ECU and send to Protomotive for ... enhancement
Next week: install EVO headers & intake, reinstall turbos & ECU
Following week: HRE C21s (full polish) & re-dyno the finished package.

I'll keep the thread updated with results & pix as they become available. My fearless estimate: 675 BHP

The Vipers have found new homes - I've just got a 700HP SL65 and the 997TT these days.

Merging topics from a separate thread:

> Which exhaust system are you having installed? Having the headers done too?

RENNtech has a new exhaust system for the 997TT, and I've had such good luck with them in the past that I volunteered my car to be one of the first installs. I'll report on weight, noise and power as soon as I have the data. The main exhaust + cats weighs only ~25 lbs (!); I inspected it myself this afternoon.

The headers are EVO's, and I'll install them along with the Protomotive-modified turbos next week.

> Is Rentech using 200 cell cats?

Yep, that's my understanding.

It's a little something Todd has cooked up Give him a yell if you want the details; I'm not going to spill the beans, although I will certainly report on the results.
