The TT is a every day sports car. Nothing much can top that thing. It's a true sports car. I am pretty sure you will love the GT-R but the Porsche man, got to love it.

Congrats on the BE. How do you like it so far? I just sold my 13BE for a 13TTS about 2 months ago. The GTR is a FAST car but it's NOT a DD.

Im glad you're enjoying the GTR. I tried to DD it for 3-4 months but I couldnt do it... It's just too rough for me driving on the streets of downtown SD. The 997TT is truly an overall perfect car IMO.

You'll be sorry.... Honestly, you already miss it? I'm with Jman... I'll need to post the story of my 2 month GTR "test drive". Just my take though, hope you find a way to enjoy it, they are really fast.

Congrats! I've heard people DD their GTR just fine. It's all a matter of personal preference.

congrats on the gtr...i actually just switched to a '12 BE from the '10 premium i had for the last 3 years. so far there are some nice changes. i believe you were asking about mods somewhere also...might check out the gtr forum and see what the SBD guys are doing out of OKC...they are getting some nice gains for fair prices IMO. with that said, a lot of folks are making some awesome stuff right now, i just hope to support some fellow oklahomans

2 great looking cars

Get a Cobb AP and a custom tune

Midpipe, downpipe. (the stock catback flows great and really doesnt need to be changed)

Intakes

Injectors

These cars LOVE E85... With the bolt-ons above, and e85 several guys are going low 10s on 20' street tires

Enjoy the car

I drive the GTR almost every day since i have it, I drive it in the snow and really like it.

Has for now I have in the car:

ASR Load control module
Meistershaft exhaust
ASR downpipe.

I'm really thinking about changing the ASR control module for a cobb and ASR downpipe for a quieter one... because the thing is crazy but way to loud..

What do you guy's think ??

Cobb and Ecutek are the 2 best systems for a GTR

Cobb has by far the most tuners available, best customer support and hold most of the records

Stock turbo cars running 9s on a cobb
several 8sec cars on cobb

From shelf tunes to custom tunes, to me cobb is the only option for a GTR

Get a cobb 006 (it allows you to control the TCM as well)
