996 Turbo to Cayman R or newer?

[angry]

Hi,
Has anyone had Track experience with both these cars????
I run a 996 TT with mild Suspension mods and 6 pot front brakes...the engine is standard.
Im quite regular at the Nurburgring and am capable of very low 8 min laps and usually quite handy round most UK tracks.

Just wondered if the drop in power would disappoint me, or would the handling of the Cayman out way the TTs all round usability??

Surely this is a personal thing? I dont think anybody can tell you.

IMO any noticeable drop in power and especially torque will disappoint you.
Why not have your 996t re mapped for around 500 bhp, no GT3 varient will then come anywhere near you

The R is a sweet thing to drive once set up, you will want 6 pots though as the brakes are lacking a tad.
