Thank you, yeah I think tint, Europipe and maybe flash but that's it. Had a 997.1 before this and the exhaust was really nice with the ep.

I think these .2s can do 600whp full bolt ons. Pretty nice. The bigger effort is going past that because of fuel system modifications or addition of meth injection. Nice find

Congrats!!!

What is considered "Full Bolt-ons" for these cars??

Mines already got the Europipe. Thought I might do a Tune / PDK tuning and maybe the TPC DCS controller, and call it a day.

remove your cats and youll wake up with even more power. If you dont feel comfortable running catless, run 100 cell or 200 cell high flow ones.

full bolt on meaning ipd plenum, y pipe, intercoolers, turbo inlets, catless exhaust and cobb pro tune custom or tune from another good tuner of some kind. And of course methanol injection. Throw in headers if you desire although that might be minimal performance gains.

stock pdk, stock turbos and stock engine.

capable 9 second cars at over 140 mph trap cars in 1/4 mile.

RennKit-Dave is infamous around these parts

Very nice. Like Guards Red. I can only imagine what the PDK does to this model.

Congrats on your purchase. I was also a die hard manual guys before on 2011 997.2 tts with pdk. To be honest, I don't really miss it on this car. The shift is smooth and quick. At some point, I may consider a manual on a different vehicle for the shifting fun.
