If you had ten grand -- give or take a few thousand -- to modify a 997 Turbo (mine is a cab) what would you do to the car to enhance performance?

Thanks!!

 

HRE C20's and PSS9's Lower weight and better handling.

 

A big turbo:


Big exhaust:


Big wing:


Awesome steering wheel:


Proper software:


Some BBS wheels:


And finally, Mexico blue paint

 

PSS9's and Exhaust.

 

ECU, suspension,

 

Chip, exhaust, lighter wheels, suspension. In that order.

 

Porsche Driving Experience should be first on your list, if not yet done.

Chip
Exhaust

 

buy a hypermotard.

 

exhaust, ecu, lowering springs, and alignment. That should be right at $10k installed.

 

Dymag's and Fabspeed Exhaust , Spring's and maybe tip's

I have a 1100S Hypermotard too and i's a great scooter......

 

ECU & exhaust...then lower it either with springs or PSS9's

 

Hmmm. I think I'll go with what pretty much most people area saying.

Exhaust, followed by ECU, springs, and alignment.

 

TheCreditMan,

Checkout the stage tuning kits. One example is the Evolution motorsports website. Here is what i would do;

First step : EVT S2 580 (Stage 2)
*ECU and exhaust with high flow catalysts.

Second step : Techart lowering springs
*Lowers the car 20mm, improves handling & appearance.

Third step : ClubSport Intercoolers
*Maximum heat dissipation

Fourth step : LightWheels
*better handling, less reciprocating mass
ie; Champion, Fikse, BBS, HRE, Dymag etc.

Fifth step : Depends on where you want to go next!!

P.S. Does your car have a manual or tiptronic transmission. A clutch kit is needed for better power delivery on a manual equipped car.

 

Power mods:FVD Exhaust with 100 cell cats, FVD Ecu upgrade, Werks one CF Airbox, RSS plenum, EVOMS headers.

Techart lowering springs with bilistien shocks and if there is cash left to spare some Sportec anthratice 19"s to compliment the Meteor Grey exterior.

 

If you really wanna have fun with your 997TT - bring it up to its hometown and spend some days on the autobahn. Believe me, after that you´ll see you car with different eyes

Stick a picture of that trip to your dash and you will smile every day while driving your car - you will be highly pleased, much more than with wheels, tips, ....

I will show you some very nice roads - for free

But hurry up - our governance argue over a speedlimit every year, so the dream will be away one day, for shure....
