Looked like too much work to install and happy with my car as is.
Not sure on a reflash per AP not needed ECU adapts.

there is no way a tb adds that much power..especially to my 997 which is highly modified..somewhere in the low 700 hp range.

You're right.....

For a low 700hp setup, your requirements are quite different. What's your main objective? Are you trying to gain more peak hp? Are you looking for reliability when at the track?

For that power level, you should be considering items like water / methanol injection kits and upgraded intercoolers since it seems like heat management is more of an issue for cars with a lot of power.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ring me up!

Ahhh....got ya!

Sounds like you have quite a setup. Are you using at the track often? A lot of full throttle runs?

You should consider methanol injection as a safety blanket and also a tool to gain more, reliable horsepower and torque.

dont track too much..enjoy the turbo on the streets..dont like the wear and tear at the track..So far ive only ran once with stock turbos, and continental conti 3's..and ran 11.3 at 125..Now with the upgraded turbos, ecu and ps2 cup tires im hoping the car runs a mid 10's.
