I have had my 996 TT for three weeks, and the car now has 2.800 km. I wanted to get more power, that is around 500hp to 520 hp, make some changes to the suspension (a little lower and stiffer), upgrade the wheels and maybe get the GT2 front and back. Anyone been down this route, any comments on who to work with or what to look for? Thanks

Gerard
PS: I might thus part with the current wheels - a set of optional Techno Sport wheels - the new optional squared hollow spokes including tires. Offer welcome.

Should be fast enough as standard, perhaps it's not in the best of health ???
As has been mentioned here before, if you want info on
upgrading your TT visit the American website Rennlist
& look at the 996Turbo forum. you will find everything from exhaust's to nitro kits (yes really!!) these guys try & out do each other, 750BHP pah is that all !!!
Best of luck.

The car is fast already, but I have had a GT2 engined 964, a RUF CTR Yellowbird, as well as currently owning a couple of non Porsche very fast cars Thus it does feel a little slow, and too soft around the corners. I had it out at Spa, a race track that I know pretty well, and the car was fun but could have done much better.

I think Pistonhead fits the bill!
