I figured it was about time, "The Raven" 837hp 996 TT
So I've been reading the forum for a while, and registered recently so I figured I would post up one of our shop cars, a 2001 996 Turbo
Porsche details
This started as a stock 996 Turbo and went through an extensive custom job and many months to become the "Raven". This car was a part of "The Great American Run" last summer and went from New York to Los Angeles and was able to hit 200+mph and that was without the boost all the way up. Here is a brief list of modifications to the car, it's just that there is too much to list so if you have any questions at all feel free to call and ask.

i gotta double check with one of the guys but the car was dyno'd at 685 at the wheels on 93, i will try and locate the sheet and scan it. and he used about 18.2% drivetrain loss to get the 837hp number
The 2 switches in the center console that would be for the seat heaters. Are they for something else now? If so what?
Also. Do you notice a big difference when using the intercooler spray? When do you use it? Is it designed to compensate for heat sink doing 1/4 mile runs or is it used on the street?
This is an old thread but pulling it back because of the car. my buddy bought this car a few years ago. a guy re ended him and wrecked the bumper and the exhaust so now it's coming to my shop for some upgrades. picked it up today and brought her up North. I'll have some more pics to come.
Well she unloaded and in the shop. There is actually 1 more 996 turbo I'm picking up tomorrow to, to do some work on for a friend. shop is going to be pretty packed.
