Thanks for confirming that the stickshift/mt DOES make a difference!!! 
I guess my money was still well spent
By the way, I noticed you own an aston along with your 997s. How does the 997s compare acceleration wise straight line?

Have you raced other 997s?

Once my car is chipped, I'd be willing to find out for myself if this result is accurate. With the new Procede V2.0, I'm pretty confident that the 335 will easily take a stock, and even slightly modded 997S. Any takers??

Hahaha.. Guys,why limit your self to a supercharger?
Haven't any of you thought for opting Gemballa?
On that note..I do remember Gemballa doin engine mods for the 997.. That still happenin or are they just making custom cars?And any one know where may I find em in L.A?

weird, but also the tip 997s still run like .3-.5 sec slower than the manuals. even with the e46 m3 the smg ran .2-.3 slower than a 6MT and they shifter faster than anyone can. so i think that a procede chipped 335 which is running mid to high 12s and trapping like 108 might be able to pull on a tip 997S. a manual tho, no way!
