Just got the car back from 9m, sorted (second RSR in as many weeks), she's still a hard work in traffic (heavy clutch,engine that wants to rev even with the slightest prod, needs the touch of a midwife) but above 4000rpm she's awesome, throttle response is now predictable with no bogging down.
Colin only managed to get 330bhp..........at the wheels, yee ha, 366.2bhp/1200kg (Colin will have to post all the figures, num nuts forgot the print out)
On paper it has better PTW than the t4s and first impressions are it has, just miss the kick in the pants when the turbo's finally got spinning.
Time to sort out some trackdays and let the fun begin

Nice one 9M, they are serious stats Paul.....There seems to be a balance of 993RS power in the North...I think I had best keep my humble 295.2 bhp at the flywheel to myself. Yours is another 993 I will be pulling over for on trackdays......the list gets bigger as the weeks go by!

Paul,

That is a stunning result. I guess the extra power yours makes over mine can be explained by the barrels and pistons which mine hasn't got. (Mine makes 348 BHP and 300 lb/ft torque).

I am delighted for you mate!!

I looked at a very similar R plate speed yellow Turbo S with yellow dials, that was at www.rsjsportscars.com in Feb 04, I beleive this was sold to a Northern buyer and returned down south be sold by RSJ again about a month ago. Perhaps it was this car, there can't be too many SY Turbo S and even I am not sad enough to know the number of Rhd examples in that colour
