I gotta ask... why cat delete? You can just pull the exhaust fuse and they will stay open... I haven't seen much data on upping the HP now that it sits in a AM... Drop a couple of cans of 44k in the tank and check your performance... This engine does alot better with higher grade fuel... the whole backfire flames etc...
Hi Gotta V the cat delete downpipes are good for about an additional 50HP. I had them on my Turbo 997 and it really impacted the way it picked up revs once the ECU is tuned . I drove a 2017 DB11 with the same engine and basic mods as mine will have and it was thrilling. Felt like a rocket but smooth as stock when you're not on the throttle. VP Website shows a dyno with just the tune and its 585 hp and 634 with the downpipes. The Torque is huge as well. Should be a blast to drive. I'm booked to get this Sept 15th and the shop has an exhaust gas analyzer so we should be able to get the tune perfect. I'll post the results.

I like the wheels. Can you provide the wheel size and the offset? Does the offset create a flush fitment with the fender or are you using spacers? Thanks

Hi Ed
I'm a dealer for ADV1 and have tried several offsets for customers cars. This is my personal car and the fitment is perfect, just a hair inside the rear fender role. Could not ask for better. I love it. I cant remember offhand what the specs were but if you call me I'll look it up.228 369 0594
Thanks Joff

Ok, I follow you on FB. We were that way (from Destin) picking up a heavily modded 996 in Baton Rouge yesterday, I wanted to check in and look at it, but wasn't sure if it had sold.

OK so I went to the track tonight and considering it was 85 and humid she ran ok. Only made two runs 11.4 and 11 6
I'll wait for cooler temps and go back. Video https://www.facebook.com/1460233878/videos/pcb.10227065297205915/622204232915105

Impressive, by the 60ft Time it's hooking just need to get the reaction time closer and you should be closer to 11 flat.

I was gonna say, for a 1.9 60 foot, that's a solid trap speed.

The reaction time doesn't come into play unless you are racing someone else. You could sit on the line for 20 seconds and still get an 11.4189.
