997.2TT Manual Advice
997.2TT Manual Advice
I have had a couple modified PDK cars but this is my first Manual .2 and am looking for some advice.
Shortly after I got the car I had a needle bearing fail which roasted my clutch and flywheel...
I have since replaced the flywheel with OEM and a sachs 2.5 clutch and pressure plate along with a few mods:
-cobb OTS stage 3
-3 bar map sensors
-Marski 4.5" intercoolers
-Speedtech 3" strait pipe exhaust with stock tips
My question is, the PDK cars are limited by the clutches but now that I have an upgraded clutch, how far can I go with power and who is the best for a tune?
Next, are the turbos, fueling, or my clutch the limit with power?
I do not want to risk torching another clutch or bending a rod (did a full build on my last .2 and it was eye watering) so safe operating is important.
We have 93 fuel here and I do not want to add meth or use race gas.
Thank you for all the advice!

I was just told today by a tuner that without the use of Meth, You'll be limited to around 650 WHP.
I'd think the OTS Stage 3 with the 3 bars, Larger IC's, and straight exhaust, that you'd be making close to that.
I don't think there's much more you could do except some other hard parts, BMC filter, Y-pipe / Plenum, Headers, etc.
Try some of those hard parts and report back...But we need some 1/4 mile / 1/8 mile, 60-130, times / speeds to see where you're at.
If you don't have one, buy a Dragy or Vbox and start getting some numbers to compare and do HP calculations with.
