Where did this 550hp figure come from? Most turbo companies talk in terms of CFM or similar to rate turbos since the HP # would be different depending on the engine and many other factors.

I experience the same clutch slippech on 3rd and 4th gear when the car is not completely warm in extreme temperatures below 35F here in the East Coast. Is this norma? All I have is Protomotive ECU and Exhaust

And if you quote CFM's you need to know what efficiency line as well. I believe KKK use to quote K16 and K24 HP conservatively as well, as you would expect a large prudent company to do!

For those with the 'inside scoop', lets see the compressor and turbine graphs.

Maybe you should head over there,i'm sure they will let you drive it and you can see for yourself instead of shooting from the hip.

Joe, do you mean nothing better to do than give my opinion?

Yes the cars are very fast according to the dragstrip times, but no thanks about the ride, not interested.

What I would like to know: How much can the stock drivetrain take, power, wise? I am asking based on normal driving (no 4 wheel burnouts, drag racing, hard shifting)

With my 993 and then 996 experiences...I would estimate that the 997tt drivetrain could handle 1000+hp...This is not a figure for the engine/clutch as well as the computer that regulates the power for the AWD system....this is based on normal driving...

Jean doesn't care for dynos since they don't mean anything... I'mwith Scott on this one- whatever it runs at the track is a great indicator of HP and what it can do in the real world....
