When are the tuners going to break 700 hp plus?

Anyone know if the tuners are having any luck with bigger turbos on the 997 tt? When are we going to see some 800 hp monsters?

Just curious!

I just hope that the clutch is going to be upgraded to handle the 700+ hp. I hear that the stock clutch isn't able to handle anything in excess of 550 hp.

I'm sure. All of our passes have been made in street trim.

We wanted to point out how fast the car can be in a configuration that can be driven everyday.

Not in our case.

Trust me, I have beaten it within an inch of it's life and have yet to have it slip on me.

Our car went 11.2 with stock axles.

Only mods to the car are the following:
Larger VTG Turbos
G.I.A.C. Software
A.W.E. Tuning muffler system
A.W.E. Tuning prototype headers
BBS Motorsport Wheels
Michelin Pilot Sport Cup Tires
93 octane Shell gasoline.
